It’s the happiest day of your life, so make sure it’s perfect at Occidental Grand Xcaret
Everybody wants a wedding to remember. It’s the biggest day of your life, so you’re after something really special. Our fair England, for all its charms and quirks, is not famed for sunny skies, so many couples look to distant shores for their dream wedding.
A popular choice for UK couples is Mexico. And why not? It’s a grand country filled with sweeping oceanic panoramas and vibrant culture. But let’s get specific. Mexico is rich and diverse, so knowing where to look is vital when it comes to perfecting your destination wedding.
It’s no easy task, mind you. Everywhere from the Riviera Maya to Los Cabos has its own indigenous charms seducing your attention. But there is one place that stands out; a place so unreservedly stunning it deserves our full consideration. That place is Xcaret, and it more than deserves the spotlight.
Xplore Xcaret
Xcaret is fringed by the glorious greens of the Mexican-Caribbean jungle, fading into the turquoises of the Caribbean Sea. It’s a meeting place for all things culturally magnificent in Mexico, from ancient Mayan civilisation to the astonishing variety of native wildlife. A single cast of the eyes can drink in the alluring ruins of the Mayan heydays, the landscape’s vast tropical diversification, and the beautiful intricacies of modern Mexican architecture.
It’s no surprise that a place saturated with such colour and history is held among the world’s most distinctive wedding destinations. To make the most of Xcaret you need a hotel that embraces this distinguished heritage, and our top recommendation is Occidental Grand Xcaret – no questions asked.
