Insta Opp at Live Aqua Beach Resort
I recently took my first trip to Cancún on Mexico’s Yucatan peninsula. This was a press trip like nothing I’ve ever previously been on. With 3 influencers and 6 travel advisors on this trip we were definitely a diverse group of people and personalities but we all got along so well, making friendships that will last beyond this adventure.

Palapas at Fiesta Americana Condesa
Our schedule had us staying at three different properties and experiencing everything each unique resort had to offer. The Fiesta Americana Condesa is a newly remodeled family friendly resort located directly on the beach. The waves here are a little rough so maybe not ideal for small children or those who are not strong swimmers but the multiple pools here will make up for not taking that dip in the sea. Facing eastwards you will get the most gorgeous sunrise if you’re an early bird, which I typically am not but with the time change I found myself waking up uncharacteristically early and loving every second of sitting on my terrace with a cup of coffee watching the sun come up!

I had one of my favorite meals of the trip at Condesa – El Mexicano serves elevated Mexican fare and I’m still dreaming about the corn chowder with truffle and shrimp dumplings and homemade tortillas that I wrapped my seared tuna in. In addition to the Mexican there is also Italian, Argentinian & Asian restaurants as well as the International buffet. Condesa is all inclusive so if you have the time you can experience every one of these fabulous restaurants maybe even twice!

Infinity Pool at Sunrise - Live Aqua Beach Resort
Stop number two was the Live Aqua Beach Resort which in all honesty was my personal favorite. This adults only, five star resort is modern, luxurious and very sexy. Great thought clearly went into every aspect of this stunning resort from the design, decor and even the signature scents wafting through the halls, rooms and lobby.
This gorgeous property has a chic boutique vibe to it but it is sprawling. There are several incredible restaurants to choose from but the stand out for me was the breakfast buffet – I can honestly say its the best I have ever experienced – with a juice bar, fresh sashimi, made to order omelettes and my favorite, chilaquiles I never said no to the most important meal of the day!

Who doesnt love a beach swing? Live Aqua Cancun
My other favorite aspect of this all inclusive resort is the seemingly endless pool area. The infinity pool which looks out over the Caribbean Sea makes for a perfect spot to watch the sun come up – its truly a stunning sight to behold. I would also like to make mention of the cute little beach front cafe just steps away from our poolside cabana: I will always remember Sea Corner as the dreamy spot where I had the perfect tamarind margarita and shrimp quesadilla that will forever make all other quesadillas pale in comparison.
Swim up bar and pool deck at Grand Americana Coral Beach
Our third and final resort was the Grand Fiesta Americana Coral Beach – the grand dame of the three resorts this property has a classic vibe with marble flooring, arched windows and a stained glass ceiling in the lobby. However, the newly renovated mezzanine level has been updated with a more modern decor and boasts three incredible restaurants; Italian, Argentinian and Japanese as well as a bar/lounge. We were able to enjoy a little taste of the Italian and had a full meal and dance lessons at the Argentine spot.
Calm crystal clear waters at Coral Beach
The beach here is very family friendly with extremely calm, warm waters, it’s perfect for little ones and people like me who don’t always want to get their hair wet when taking a dip. There is a VIP area on the beach with lounge chairs and food/beverage service but I highly recommend grabbing tacos or chips and guacamole to go with your Mezcalito at the beach side boho cafe.

Boho Taco stand at Coral Beach
I think one of the biggest stand out features of this hotel is the incredible Gem Spa. The 40,000 square foot space is the perfect way to start your decompression process with a ten step hydrotherapy treatment before your hour long massage and you can even have dinner in the spa and you don’t even have to get out of your robe. Its truly a magical experience.
My extremely expansive terrace at Grand Fiesta Americana Coral Beach
The rooms here at Coral Beach are pure luxury. I had a top floor suite with extra high ceilings, a step up to my bedroom and impossibly huge bathroom. The countertop space was endless and there was even a sauna adjacent to the shower. Go big or go home was clearly the idea here – as you can see my terrace is absolutely massive giving me views of both sides of the island.
No matter what your preference is when looking for a resort to vacation in there is no doubt in my mind that you will find something you love with one of these Fiesta Americana Travelty Properties. If you need any advice or questions answered please leave a comment and I will do my best to answer or I will gladly get you in contact with one of the amazing Travel Advisors I had the pleasure of experiencing this adventure with.
I hope you enjoyed going on this little trip to Cancún with me, I loved reliving the memories!
