Do Easter Right in the Riviera Maya
Written by Mony Figueroa
Easter is right around the corner, and if we’re being honest, most of us have the exact same thought at the same time: I need a getaway. A few days to take it easy, stop working, forget about meetings, and let go of the stress. No planning, no rushing, no responsibilities. Just a real break where you can actually relax and disconnect.
And that’s where the Riviera Maya comes in. The weather is perfect, the ocean is warm, and everything feels effortless. You avoid the crowds, you don’t have to wake up early for anything, and your days unfold exactly how you want them to. Beach in the morning, pool in the afternoon, cocktails whenever you feel like it, and fresh ceviche prepared just for you.
If this already sounds like how you want to spend Easter, these are five villas we love for an easy, relaxed escape by the sea.
Villa Raes
Region 8, Tulum, Riviera Maya, Mexico
18 Guests | 8 Bedrooms | 9.5 Bathrooms
Villa Raes is perfect for Easter if what you’re craving is space, calm, and zero stress. With eight bedrooms spread across three separate buildings, everyone has room to breathe, making it ideal for families or groups who want to be together without feeling on top of each other. You wake up surrounded by jungle, take it slow, and still stay close enough to the beach to move at your own pace.
It’s the kind of place where Easter feels easy, relaxed, and exactly like a real escape should feel.
Playacar Vista Estate
Playacar Phase I, Playa del Carmen, Riviera Maya, Mexico
42 Guests | 16 Bedrooms | 16.5 Bathrooms
If Easter for you means getting everyone together without compromises, Playacar Vista Estate is hard to beat. With 16 bedrooms across two side-by-side villas, it’s made for big families, multi-generation trips, or large groups that want to celebrate together while still having plenty of space. Everyone fits comfortably, no one feels crowded, and the layout makes it easy to move between shared moments and quiet downtime.
You’re tucked inside Playacar, one of the most exclusive areas in Playa del Carmen, with the beach just steps away and Fifth Avenue close enough for a night out. It’s the kind of place where Easter feels effortless, social, and memorable in the best way.
Casa Sirenus
Playacar Phase I, Playa del Carmen, Riviera Maya, Mexico
16 Guests | 7 Bedrooms | 9 Bathrooms
Casa Sirenus is a great Easter choice if you want beachfront calm without feeling far from everything. It’s set inside the exclusive Playacar community, right on the sand, but still close enough to Playa del Carmen’s Fifth Avenue for an easy dinner out or a last-minute plan. You get privacy, ocean views, and that relaxed holiday feeling from the moment you arrive.
The open layout makes it easy for everyone to gather, whether it’s for a relaxed lunch, sunset cocktails, or an unhurried Easter dinner by the water. It’s the kind of place where you settle in quickly and don’t feel the need to rush anywhere.
Villa Amaite
Soliman Bay, Tulum, Riviera Maya, Mexico
22 Guests | 8 Bedrooms | 9.5 Bathrooms
Villa Amaite is an easy yes for Easter if you’re looking for space, beach, and that feeling of being far from everything. Set on the calm shores of Soliman Bay, it feels quiet and untouched, the kind of place where days slow down naturally. With two separate buildings, it works beautifully for families or groups who want to stay together but still enjoy their own rhythm.
The setting makes it effortless to gather everyone for lunch, sunset drinks, or a laid-back Easter dinner, while the bay stays peaceful and uncrowded. It’s the kind of place that makes you want to extend the stay and forget about heading back home.
Villa Kinich
Playacar Phase I, Playa del Carmen, Riviera Maya, Mexico
20 Guests | 7 Bedrooms | 11 Bathrooms
Villa Kinich is ideal for Easter if you want beachfront living without giving up access to town. Set inside the gated community of Playacar, it gives you ocean views, total privacy, and the convenience of being just minutes from Playa del Carmen’s Fifth Avenue. It’s perfect for families or groups who want to relax by the sea during the day and still have the option to head out in the evening.
Sunset cocktails on the rooftop with the ocean right in front of you set the tone, and by the time dinner rolls around, everyone is already exactly where they want to be. It’s the kind of villa that makes Easter feel special without trying too hard.
