Mexico, but make it next-level. UNICO 20°87° Hotel Riviera Maya isn’t just a hotel - it’s an adults-only resort where luxury is served with a twist of lime and a wink. This is Riviera Maya reimagined: a place where your poolside margarita comes with sea views, your room comes with a personalised mini-bar, and your biggest decision of the day is beach or spa (spoiler: do both). Set on the powder-soft sands of Mexico’s Caribbean coast, UNICO 20°87° takes the whole ‘treat yourself’ thing and runs with it. Think locally-inspired cuisine across five top-tier restaurants – tacos at lunch, sushi or perfectly grilled steaks at dinner? Sí, por favor – plus handcrafted cocktails at every turn and a full-service spa where even the massages are influenced by the region. This isn’t just a getaway. It’s a full-on, five-star upgrade to your reality.

UNICO the place to go

UNICO is an outstanding resort. The staff is excellent. All of the restaurants are superb.
Relative to comparable high-end resorts in Riviera Maya, they are reasonably priced. This is our third day and we’ve never been disappointed.

This was my first resort, all inclusive stay in a few years and we were there for a friend’s wedding. It was a lovely stay -the property is gorgeous -the rooms are tastefully decorated and comfortable. We loved the personalized touches -pillows, essential oils, and the mixology experience in the room.
The service is above and beyond -everyone is extremely responsive to requests. Our concierge Emmanuel was so helpful and thoughtful and responded extremely quickly to everything we needed. The waitstaff were great too -we were able to speak with Mariana a few times when eating and we so appreciated her service.
The food is quite good and their drinks are top notch. The only thing that was disappointing was not being able to swim in the ocean because of the seaweed -not sure there’s much the hotel can do about that. This was a really lovely place to take a restful vacation and to celebrate our dear friends.

Very nice all inclusive hotel
Jun 22, 2025Rebecca OMiami Beach, Florida
Hotel is very nice, my husband and I were also there Dec 2023 and I thought the hotel was a bit more well maintained back then.
The food and drinks were superb.
However our host, Carlos was AMAZING, always on point, very professional, very helpful, always there for whatever we needed.
Also the other host Karen was also wonderful.

We had an amazing 4 days at Unico for a family wedding. Everyone went out of their way to make sure our large group was happy and comfortable. The rooms were beautiful and the different pool areas were great. In particular, the service at the pool was amazing. We never went more than a few minutes without someone asking us if we needed a drink or a bite to eat which we needed during our hot hot hot weekend. In particular, Josue was so kind to help us set up an area with plenty of lounge chairs for us to call our home base each morning. Thank you, Unico!

Unico - An experience to remember

Amazing food and drinks all throughout the hotel. The restaurants are top tier with excellent service. They definitely know how to treat their guests. I can write an essay to explain how amazing our experience was at Unico and I honestly do not have anything negative or bad to say about our stay. This hotel is not enormous like many resorts in…

Amazing food and drinks all throughout the hotel. The restaurants are top tier with excellent service. They definitely know how to treat their guests. I can write an essay to explain how amazing our experience was at Unico and I honestly do not have anything negative or bad to say about our stay. This hotel is not enormous like many resorts in Riviera maya , everything is a short walk away, but it does not feel small nor crowded.
We ended up adding another night at Unico and we reserved our next stay here at checkout, that should speak volumes!
