NIZUC Resort & Spa Caters to Families in Cancun

Think if you’re traveling to the Caribbean with the family, you can’t enjoy a luxurious retreat parents will love just as much as the kids? Think again. NIZUC Resort & Spa

has been voted best of the best Top 100 Hotels in the World by Travel + Leisure

, has one of the top-rated hotel spas in both North and South America and was Hotel of the Year Latin America & Caribbean last year within Preferred Hotels & Resorts … and yet among all its excellent service and luxury amenities, it offers plenty of fun for kids, too.

NIZUC Resort & Spa in Cancun, Mexico, is located on Punta Nizuc. Compared to some other parts of Cancun, Punta Nizuc is a calm, quiet locale, with a more or less secluded beach, known most for its amazing marine life. Under the crystalline waters lies a beautiful reef filled with sea creatures, alongside underwater sculptures courtesy of the Underwater Museum of Art. Additionally, this spot is just 15 minutes away from the airport, making getting there and back a breeze (and convenience is always a priority when you’re traveling with a kid or two).

What kind of family fun can you expect? Kids ages 4–12 will love the Winik’s Kids Club, where they can enjoy a range of activities alongside qualified staff (and it’s all free of charge). For older kids, the teenage lounge just recently opened for this season, and your teens will love the expansive gaming center, with billiards, pinball, foosball and plenty of big TV screens.

For when the entire family wants to spend time together, there’s lots of fun to be had then as well. Water activities for families are plentiful, whether you like paddle boarding, snorkeling, kayaking or even zayaking — a unique activity that combines kayaking with snorkeling. Zayaking allows you to view the underwater environment, floating mostly out of the water, while you propel your craft with your hands and feet. Zayaking is particularly popular with those who want to capture some underwater photography while staying dry. Families also enjoy group classes, like cooking classes to learn from NIZUC’s top-tier chefs how to make the same pizza, sushi, salsa, tacos and more you’ll find around the property.

Right now, your family can take advantage of a special getaway offer at NIZUC Resort & Spa. The 3rd Nights the Charm offer is available for travel through the end of August and gives guests a complimentary third night for every two consecutive nights paid. Plus, kids stay, play and eat for free.
