# Grand Velas All Inclusive Suites and Spa Resort *By James Hills — Updated February 2025* Looking for the ultimate in luxury? How about relaxing with your friends at a resort with the largest spa in Riviera Maya while enjoying crystal clear water that is perfect for scuba and snorkeling? Don't forget mixology classes, swim-up pool bars, and the in-room mini bar that is refreshed daily. Let's check out the Grand Velas for all this and more! The all-inclusive resort Grand Velas located in Riviera Maya builds on the success of its AAA 5-Diamond-ranked sister property in Nuevo Vallarta. If you are looking for the ultimate in all-inclusive luxury, you can't get much classier than this one featuring 539 suites, each more than 1,000 square-feet in size! Additionally, suppose one of your goals is to escape from the kids (and other people's kids). In that case, there are even three separate parts of the resort: Oceanfront Ambassador Grand Class Suites with adults-only pool, beach, and restaurant, family-friendly ocean view, and oceanfront. Ambassador Suites and Master Suites are surrounded by the flora and fauna of the Yucatan Peninsula’s jungle. ### Why Men Should Pick A Dominican Republic All-Inclusive Resort For A Caribbean Guys Trip Reasons men should consider an all-inclusive resort in the Dominican Republic for their next guys trip.

If your idea of a fantastic Riviera Maya mancation is food that is as good as the accommodations and beaches then Grand Velas is perfect there as well. The resort presents a gastronomic tour of the Yucatan, Europe, and Asia, offering seven restaurants with world-class chefs from France, Spain, and Mexico. ## Mexican Spa Mancation! As you know by now, I am a sucker for [great spa experiences](https://menwhoblog.com/blog/guide-for-a-mans-first-spa-visit.html) and not every spa is created equal. There are spas with "treatment rooms" and then there are spas with fantastic sanctuary rooms. Grand Velas brings both in a more than 80,000 square-feet facility with 40 treatment rooms - the largest in Riviera Maya! ## Man Gear Pick of the Month September's Pick Amazon (affiliate) ### Kenyon City Grill Portable Stainless Steel Electric Grill Why we picked it: a grill you can actually carry to the campsite, the tailgate or the cabin without borrowing a truck.
