Royalton Riviera Cancun
About the Resort
Royalton Riviera Cancun represents modern Caribbean luxury at its finest. This all-inclusive resort features sleek contemporary design, stunning beachfront grounds, and the All-In Luxury concept that ensures every guest is pampered. Couples seeking an intimate wedding venue will appreciate the beautiful beach and garden ceremony options, elegant reception spaces, and attentive Diamond Club premium service. The resort's sophisticated atmosphere creates a polished backdrop for celebrations that feel both intimate and grand.
Wedding Planning Notes
Royalton Riviera Cancun (on the Riviera Maya, despite the name) is about 15 minutes from Cancun International Airport (CUN) — one of the shorter transfers in the area. The property has standard rooms plus a Diamond Club tier — adults-only pool, butler service, premium liquor, and a private restaurant — and couples often upgrade themselves and the wedding party to Diamond Club while booking the rest of the guest list in standard rooms. The venue roster covers seven ceremony and reception spaces, including a beach that handles up to 300 and a ballroom up to 490. Indian food is prepared in-house by an Indian chef, and a South Asian wedding package is offered.
