If you have not been to Yucatán yet, then we have lots to tell you. 

Yucatán has become the favorite destination of travelers that want to celebrate a special moment, as it is a romantic destination by nature. You can get lost in its heavenly beaches with soft white sand, green-emerald calm waters, surrounded by a great variety of flora and fauna, which invites to a moment of relax and privacy. It was awarded as the best wedding destination in the Travvy Awards 6th edition, award granted by the Travel Industry Academy.

Yucatán is full of options for celebrations before the big event, with a wide range of restaurants of different styles, environments, and haute cuisine, delighting even the most demanding palates, because, thanks to the wide variety of the Yucatecan cuisine, it is one of the most renowned in Mexico. We are sure that all your guests will leave with a good taste in their mouths. If what you are looking for is a city treasured by its astonishing colonial architecture, and renowned by the human warmth of its inhabitants, besides having all services needed to facilitate the organization of any kind of event, you do not need anything more than just arriving to this beautiful destination called Mérida, the white city, and let your plans flow with ease. 

Mérida is the capital city of Yucatán and has an international airport connecting the state with direct flights to main cities in Mexico and international destinations like Miami, Houston, Oakland, among others; thus, it will be very easy to coordinate the arrival of all invitees. If you prefer, it is also possible to arrive in Cancun airport and ride a coach or any other hired transportation service, which will take at most 4 hours to Mérida, or 90 minutes to Valladolid. Regarding accommodation, don’t worry! There are more than 14,000 rooms all over the state in hotels of international brands and high-quality standards, for all tastes and budgets. 

Once in Mérida, we recommend that you take a tour, a good option would be the “Turibus” or “Carnavalito”, which will take you on a ride around the main attractions while you learn about the history of the city, its streets, and its impressive colonial buildings which still preserve a special beauty; some of them form part of Mexico’s cultural heritage.

On the other hand, you have certainly heard or read sometime about Cenotes in Yucatán, which are incredible places surrounded by nature and mysticism, the favorite places for adventurous souls visiting the Mayab land. It is here where each experience has a different challenge and you will choose among almost 100 of them, which are open for tourists, although there are more than 3,000 cenotes in the state. There are places you can definitely enjoy only in Yucatán. 

With this in mind, the ideal place for your celebration, like a marriage proposal, an anniversary, a romantic getaway, or a vows renewal, you can find it in Yucatán with a perfect environment to make it unforgettable and keep those moments with your couple. Romantic landscapes, each one with a particular beauty, like ancient convents, majestic sisal haciendas, boutique hotels, colorful Magic Towns, beautiful beaches, balconies on a manor at Paseo de Montejo Avenue, and spectacular cenotes will be the ideal locations for that very special moment.
