Perched on the storied shores of Isla Mujeres, Almare, A Luxury Collection Resort offers a soulful blend of modern luxury and time-honored tradition. As the island’s first adults-only, all-inclusive resort under The Luxury Collection, Almare pays homage to its fishing village roots, from the morning catch that still inspires its menus to the rhythms of trova isleña and Cuban-inspired melodies that echo softly in the background. Even its design reflects the serenity of the sea and the vibrancy of local heritage, nodding to the annual maritime pilgrimage of the Virgin of Charity of Copper. Here, life slows to a graceful pace, inviting guests to savor not just the scenery, but the culture, cuisine, and community that gives Isla Mujeres its heart.
At Nekajui, A Ritz-Carlton Reserve nature is not just a backdrop—it is the storyteller. Situated along a pristine stretch of Costa Rica’s Pacific coast, this resort invites travelers into a world shaped by ancient Chorotega traditions and breathtaking natural wonders. Guests can discover tide-dependent sea caves that are hidden sanctuaries or connect more deeply through curated rituals like the “From Farm to Cup” coffee journey, a slow, sensory immersion into the country’s proud agricultural legacy. With nearly 550 pieces of Latin American art and an ethos rooted in preservation and authenticity, Nekajui, A Ritz-Carlton Reserve offers a spiritual and sensory escape that redefines the meaning of luxury.

As the island’s most anticipated new opening, this adults-only hideaway invites guests to experience the essence of island life, from its crystalline waters to the vibrant cultural traditions that define its soul. Time your visit with the annual South Caicos Regatta, a beloved May celebration of seafaring heritage that brings together residents and travelers in a joyful display of boats, music, and community spirit. Here, wellness is woven into every detail, encouraging stillness, reconnection, and the quiet luxury of being fully present.
