Roomer

Unico 20 87 Hotel Riviera Maya

$600-900/ notte

Prenota se You want a boutique, adults-only all-inclusive where the food is actually edible and you prefer a killer pool scene over a swimmable beach.

Perché piace così tanto

  • No wristbands—it feels like a hotel, not a cattle ranch
  • The 'unlimited' inclusions (spa, tours) are a legit perk, even with the 25% service fee
  • Local Host service that handles your reservations via WhatsApp

In sintesi: A stunning, design-forward resort that nails the food and vibes but completely fails on the beach front.

Recensito da @ReggielovesI stayed in this Ocean Front Suite at Unico 20 87 and the terrace was unreal. Having a private tub right next to the ocean while listening to the waves was the highlight of my trip. It's the perfect spot for a romantic escape.


Cosa hanno detto gli ospiti che hanno soggiornato qui

The hype

Travelers rave about the 'relaxed luxury' aesthetic and the food quality, which punches way above typical all-inclusive weight.

Reality check

The 'quiet pool' (La Sombra) still has a swim-up bar, so don't expect library-level silence if a group is day-drinking.

  • You are a foodie who usually hates all-inclusive buffets
  • You prefer a curated, boutique vibe over a sprawling mega-resort
  • You love spa days and don't mind paying the 25% fee for 'included' treatments

Pulizia e manutenzione

9
  • Housekeeping: Daily service is thorough; turndown service includes refreshing towels and restocking the minibar.
  • Bathroom hygiene: Immaculate. Showers are spacious with rainfall heads. No recurring mold complaints found.
  • Maintenance: Property feels new and well-maintained. Minor reports of 'black spots' (wear/algae) on the bottom of the white pools.
  • Linens & towels: High-quality, plush towels and crisp linens. No threadbare sheets here.
  • Odors & scents: Lobby smells like their signature custom fragrance (floral/woody). Rooms can be customized with aromatherapy scents.

Prima di prenotare

Buono a sapersi

  • Download the UNICO 20°87° app immediately to book dining and spa appointments before you land.
  • The 'Local Host' is your point person—use WhatsApp to ask for everything from ice to pillow menu changes.
  • Tipping is not mandatory but highly appreciated; bring small bills (USD or Pesos) for excellent service.

Cosa portare

  • Water shoes (the beach is rocky)
  • Reef-safe sunscreen (strictly enforced in cenotes)
  • Dressy casual outfits for dinner (men need collared shirts and closed-toe shoes for some restaurants)

Genio delle camere

Migliori scelte

  • Alcoba Ocean View (3rd floor or higher) for actual views and privacy
  • Alto Panoramic (5th floor) for the best unobstructed ocean vistas

Camere da evitare

  • Ground floor swim-up rooms if you want privacy (everyone at the pool can see you)
  • Rooms directly facing the 20°87° pool if you want to nap during the DJ set

Genio delle richieste camera – copia e incolla

I would love to request a room on the 4th or 5th floor in the building closest to the La Sombra (quiet) pool for maximum privacy and ocean views.

FAQ e consigli nascosti

Tutto ciò che vuoi davvero sapere prima di prenotare.

Is the beach really that bad?

Yes. It's rocky, narrow, and often full of seaweed. Think of it as a nice backdrop for the pool, not a place to swim.

What is the 25% service fee?

You get 'unlimited' spa, golf, and tours, but you must pay a 25% fee on the retail price of each service. A $300 massage will cost you $75.

Do I need to tip?

It's an all-inclusive, so tips are technically included, but staff work hard and cash tips ($1-5 for drinks, more for spa/housekeeping) go a long way.

Is the water in the pools heated?

Yes, the pools are heated, which is a lifesaver during cooler winter months or breezy evenings.

Can I drink the tap water?

No. Stick to the bottled water provided daily in your room and used at all restaurants.

Is there a dress code for dinner?

Yes. 'Casual Elegance' is the norm. No flip-flops or swimsuits. Men usually need long pants and collared shirts for Cueva Siete and Mi Carisa.


Suggerimenti degli Insider

  • Ask your Local Host for the 'pillow menu' and 'aromatherapy menu' upon arrival to customize your room scent.

  • The hydrotherapy circuit at the spa is often included with treatments—arrive 45 minutes early to use it.

  • Order the churros from room service—they are a cult favorite among past guests.

5 cose da sapere prima di partire

  • 💡The 'quiet pool' (La Sombra) has a swim-up bar, so it's only as quiet as the drunkest group there.

  • 💡You can get custom-painted hats by local artisans near the pool (sometimes for a fee, sometimes included as an activity).

  • 💡The 'ocean view' from the 2nd floor is mostly a 'palm tree view'—go higher.

  • 💡Room service breakfast is excellent and a great way to avoid the morning buffet rush.

  • 💡The gym is surprisingly legit, open 24/7 with LifeFitness equipment and daily classes like floating yoga.
