Timeless Fun in Tulum: Activities for Every Age
Each day brings a collection of new experiences at Hilton Tulum Riviera Maya. Your clients can engage in family activities, unwind with a spa day, or immerse themselves in the local culture – without even leaving the resort if they don’t want to.
“We know that customers are going to our properties to know more about the local destination they’re visiting, so we bring the destination into the hotel,” says Sergi Ruiz Pique, Assistant Managing Director Sales, All Inclusive at Hilton Worldwide. “They don’t need to go out as much in order to experience what’s in those destinations. For Hilton, the inclusion of all these cultures and countries into our product line is such a priority.”
Under the warm Caribbean rays, they can dip into one of the resort’s eight distinctive pools, each offering a unique atmosphere, from peaceful to lively. There’s also a fully equipped fitness centre, open all hours, with yoga, beach workouts, and other classes led by certified instructors.
For true vacay vibes, your clients might want to indulge in a day at the spa. Surrounded by a tropical forest, the spa at sister resort, Conrad Tulum Riviera Maya, offers 16 treatment rooms, hydro massage therapy, relaxation areas, and a beauty salon.
A variety of resort programs encourage creativity and learning for all generations through programs like cultural and sustainable workshops, where guests can engage in local music, art, and crafts using recycled materials. There are also mindfulness and connection classes that feature breathwork practice, yoga, and tribal nights. Guests can also get their hearts pumping with animal flow, beach sports, and functional training like TRX and Barre classes.
The resort is also conveniently located a short distance away from some of the region’s hottest attractions:
- 5 kilometres from Xel Ha, a natural paradise.
- 8 kilometres from the Tulum archeological site, the window into Mayan history.
- 25 kilometres from Tulum’s city centre (Tulum), the region’s artistically vibrant heart.
