Home · Contact · List your business About this listing Andaz Mayakoba Resort Riviera Maya presents a comprehensive Passover 2024 experience set against the secluded backdrop of Mexico's Caribbean coast. Located within the secure, gated Mayakoba complex in Playa del Carmen, the resort offers a refined environment for the holiday. This year's program features a full buyout of the property, ensuring that the entire resort—from its beachfront to its gardens—is dedicated exclusively to program guests.
The resort is known for its blend of modern luxury and natural beauty, situated among lagoons and mangroves. For the Passover season, MD Passover has partnered with the hotel to provide a seamless transition into a fully kosher environment. Guests can expect a structured holiday experience that balances religious observance with the leisure amenities of a high-end luxury resort.
About the area The Mayakoba development is situated just north of Playa del Carmen, approximately 30 miles from Cancun International Airport. This location offers a sense of privacy and tranquility, removed from the busier tourist corridors while remaining accessible to the wider Riviera Maya. The resort itself is integrated into a diverse ecosystem, featuring water canals that connect different parts of the complex.
In terms of Jewish life in the broader area, Playa del Carmen is home to an established Jewish community. Chabad of Playa del Carmen serves as a central hub for residents and visitors, located in the downtown area. While the Andaz Mayakoba is a self-contained destination for the Passover program, its proximity to Playa del Carmen allows for a connection to the local Jewish presence in the Quintana Roo region.

Nature enthusiasts can visit the nearby eco-parks such as Xcaret or explore the various cenotes—natural limestone sinkholes—that are unique to the Yucatán Peninsula. For those interested in history, the Mayan ruins of Tulum and Coba are accessible for day trips, offering a glimpse into the ancient civilization of the region. The Mesoamerican Barrier Reef, the second largest coral reef system in the world, is also located just off the coast, providing world-class snorkeling and diving spots.
