Rosewood Mayakoba
Rosewood Mayakoba is built into a mangrove lagoon system inside the wider Mayakoba development, and the lagoons are the reason to choose it: guests move between the beach, the suites and the restaurants by boat, which turns the arrival at a ceremony into part of the day rather than a walk across a lawn.
About Rosewood Mayakoba
Rosewood Mayakoba is built into a mangrove lagoon system inside the wider Mayakoba development, and the lagoons are the reason to choose it: guests move between the beach, the suites and the restaurants by boat, which turns the arrival at a ceremony into part of the day rather than a walk across a lawn.
Six named spaces carry weddings.
The Lagoon Lawn is the ceremony site, facing green water and dense mangrove.
La Ceiba Garden and Kitchen is the dinner room, an outdoor kitchen built around a ceiba tree with a working chef’s garden supplying it and menus drawn from Yucatecan cooking.

Nothing is reserved until the venue confirms. A first note comes back within two business days.
We spent a number of years during the pandemic era visiting Tulum during ski week time and eventually became turned off by how seedy it had become.

Questions about the venue
How many guests can Rosewood Mayakoba hold?+
The resort does not publish fixed capacities by space. Its scale supports receptions in the 150 to 300 range depending on layout, ceremonies of 20 to 200 on the Lagoon Lawn or the beach, and 30 to 80 in the enclosed garden spaces. The wedding team confirms numbers per plan.
Can we buy out the resort?+
Not as a rule. The property is too large for a standard buyout, so individual venues are privatised instead: Aquí Me Quedo, La Ceiba, the Lagoon Lawn and the Casa del Lago pool deck. The Founder’s Villa is the one true private-estate option on the property.
How do guests move around the resort?+
By boat along the mangrove lagoons, and on foot or by buggy where the paths connect. It is the signature of the place and guests enjoy it, but boat moves take longer than walking, so wedding timelines here need slack built in at every transition.
What does a wedding at Rosewood Mayakoba cost?+
No wedding rates are published. Planners on this coast report venue fees around $3,000 to $6,000 USD and food and beverage from roughly $220 per guest. Suites start near $700 a night in season. Everything on this page is an estimate, not a quote.
