Christie Laplant with James TravelPOINTS a Riviera Maya vacation specialist recently visited the Azul Beach June 2009 for a site inspection. From the moment I walked into the open lobby overlooking the ocean in the back ground I knew this hotel was going to be very special.
The Azual Beach located south of Cancun Mexico is a small boutique all inclusive luxury hotel & resort to many of my clients. Awarded by travel + Leisure Family as the “Hip Gourmet Inclusive®” boutique hotel on a 9 mile stretch of white sand beach. It only has 98-rooms all steps from the beach, the hotel has an intimate atmosphere while also providing guests the superior service and amenities of larger luxury resorts. Guests of Azul Beach Hotel can expect personalized attention, gourmet-dining options featuring specialized menus; deluxe destination wedding packages and unforgettable memories with loved ones including amenities for families with small children. Not to mention, culinary activities including private picnics, a fresh fish market and chef prepared beach BBQ, assure there is something for everyone.
What makes Azul so special? With just 98 rooms Azul’s intimate size means each room is less than a minute from the beach, pool, restaurants, bars or any of the resort’s amenities. For sun worshipers they have the beach butlers for the ultimate in service out on the sand. The beach butlers will have soft beach towels for you, refreshment deliveries, tanning products and water vaporizers, what more do you need?
Room suites Azul’s 98 room suites feature contemporary decor, air conditioning, king size or double beds, satellite TV, bath and shower, hair dryer, safety deposit box, daily supplied mini bar, coffee/tea maker, DVD player, direct dialing telephone, port for modem, and a balcony or veranda with a view of the gardens or Caribbean. Categories are superior and deluxe. All rooms are either directly on, or just a few steps away from, the secluded beach . The deluxe rooms are the rooms that are closer to the beach but to be honest even the superior rooms are just a few steps away.
A la carte restaurants The restaurants and bars at Azul feature a selection of eclectic menus and tasty drinks in out-of-the-ordinary settings. Fine international cuisine and all premium drinks will appeal to your sophisticated side, there is a la carte breakfast for adults, and buffet breakfast for adults and children. Kids have buffet food service where they can enjoy their own custom kids’ dishes. About menus; have you ever eaten at a restaurant with five different menus? Have you ever tried ordering from an all-lobster menu? Have you ever had a Tequila Martini? Have you ever had a drink at a bar with swinging beds? Yes it’s fun and all part of the all-inclusive experience at Azul. No reservations required. On a diet? They even have a low fat, low carb menu. Welcome to the gourmet inclusive experience.
