The Riviera Maya of Mexico is one of the most popular destinations for beach holidays around the world. It’s home to amazing beaches like Tulum and Playa del Carmen, as well as interesting activities. It’s a place where families and friends have a good time, but if you want a getaway just for adults, with no kids running around, then TRS Yucatán Hotel by Palladium Hotel Group is your best option.

More than just a place to stay, the adult-only hotel takes a quiet luxury approach, offering time together and spa treatments as well as mood-setting dinners rather than playgrounds.

Where you’ll stay

Situated on the Riviera Maya, in the Playa del Carmen–Tulum corridor, the TRS Yucatán Hotel is a top-tier luxury resort by Palladium Hotel Group, designed just for grown-ups (couples or friends) in mind. It has around 454 suites, and 24-hour butler service as well as a private beach club, multiple pools (including an infinity pool with sea view) and an on-site spa & wellness centre.

Those key features have positioned TRS Yucatán Hotel as the best adults-only hotel near Playa del Carmen.

But what does this mean for you? You’re staying somewhere peaceful yet luxurious, with everything you need right there.

Room types

When planning your beach holiday, you will find several options to choose from, each catering to a specific need.

But if you’re looking for privacy, then here are some of the best options:

  • Junior Suite Garden View: A large, comfortable suite facing tropical gardens.
  • Junior Suite Private Pool Garden View: For more privacy, these suites offer a terrace and private marble pool with jets.
  • Ambassador Suite Panoramic Ocean View: Top-tier suite, two levels, private pool on rooftop terrace overlooking the ocean.

The hotel layout makes sure that each room benefits from peaceful surroundings and attention to detail. Not only that, but the butler service adds a new level of comfort, it’s there for you to help with special occasions, breakfast in your room or arranging spa dates.

Pools, wellness, water sports & evening life

But the hotel is not only fancy rooms and top-notch services, it also offers a ton of activities that are suitable for friends and couples. Here’s where the “vacation” takes on its full meaning. A good example is the Zentropia Spa & Wellness centre, which offers hydrotherapy zones, a juice bar, and fitness/yoga options. It’s the perfect option for those who are looking for that extra relaxation.

But that’s not it, you also have day classes & workshops. From yoga on the beach to group fitness by the pool or other adult-centric activities. The hotel offers water sports too, in case you want to snorkel, kayak or do some stand-up paddleboarding quietly.

While still calm in the evening, the hotel gets a different vibe, you’ll have live music, shows or a more upscale lounge. It’s not clubbing until dawn necessarily; it’s more like an elevated night out.

This way, you’re not only sitting by a pool all day (though you could).

The best beaches and beach-club vibes

When it comes to beaches and clubs, the TRS Yucatan offers a VIP beach area with premium loungers, waiter services and activities. There are several pools around the hotel area, but the one that gets the most attention is the infinity pool that overlooks the sea, as well as a saltwater pool area. It’s also home to a Lagoon, a secret pool and even Flamingos!

The hotel is packed with surprises, but the main attraction is by far the white-sand beaches, which are located just a within minutes from the hotel.

Conclusion

With more than 400 suites, an overly detailed service and facilities that offer interesting activities as well as restaurants that cater to different types of people, the TRS Yucatán Hotel by Palladium Hotel Group is the best choice for those who are looking for an adult-only experience in the Riviera Maya.

It gives you the perfect blend of luxury, calm and a feel-good vacation. You get world-renowned beaches and pools, world-class dining, spa and wellness, non-motorised water sports, and room types that let you decide your level of privacy or connection.
