The latest addition is El Pueblito Cooking School, launching this spring.

The Cooking School will also offer private classes for individuals, families or corporate groups. An exciting line-up of celebrity guest chef classes will be announced later in 2016.

Additional programs play heavily on the local customs and indigenous ingredients of the Riviera Maya. Banyan Tree Mayakoba recently unveiled HAAB, an immersive outdoor dining experience that brings to life the ancient culture, customs and cuisine of the Mayan people. Rosewood Mayakoba also introduced La Ceiba Garden & Kitchen, an al fresco environment for guests to partake in cooking demonstrations, tastings and even foraging for their own produce from over 45 types of organic vegetation to create exquisite delicacies with unmistakable Mexican flare. At Fairmont Mayakoba, the new “Classics Perfected” cocktail menu – a global Fairmont program designed by its elite bartenders – is available at the newly- renovated Lobby Lounge. The updated Lobby Lounge features an entirely new beverage experience and menu complete with upscale appetizers and sampling dishes to share overlooking Mayakoba’s distinctive waterways.
