AT A GLANCE

Why Cancun for a Anniversary Escape trip

For an anniversary on the Mexican Caribbean, look to the grandest oceanfront suites in the Hotel Zone or Playa Mujeres, with sweeping terraces over the turquoise water. Celebrate with a chef's tasting menu built on Yucatecan flavors such as achiote and sour orange, charter a private yacht to Isla Mujeres for lunch and snorkeling, and make the day trip inland to the great Mayan city of Chichén Itzá. Back at the resort, a mezcal tasting at sunset is a fitting toast.

Cancun and the Riviera Maya pair turquoise Caribbean water and powdery white sand with Mayan ruins, jungle cenotes and some of Mexico's most lavish resorts. Luxury here leans toward the all-suite resort: private plunge pools, oceanfront villas, butler service and spas built around Mayan rituals. It suits travelers who want beach seclusion with culture and adventure close by.

When to go: December through April is the dry season, with sunshine, low humidity and comfortable temperatures. Summer is hot and humid, and the Atlantic hurricane season runs from June through November, with the highest risk typically from August through October.

Cancun Hotel ZoneA long strip of beachfront between the Caribbean and the Nichupté Lagoon, it offers the area's liveliest dining and nightlife, ideal for travelers who want energy and convenience.
Playa Mujeres and Costa MujeresNorth of the city, this quieter stretch of coast features newer, sprawling resorts and calm water, suited to couples and families who want seclusion close to the airport.
Riviera MayaThe coast south toward Playa del Carmen and Tulum mixes gated luxury resort communities, cenotes and Mayan ruins, perfect for travelers who want nature, culture and space.
