Location

Set on a secluded nook of the Punta Nizuc on Mexico’s Riviera Maya, NIZUC Resort & Spa is surrounded by white sandy beaches and a canal flourishing with mangroves. With plenty to do on-site, there’s little reason or desire to venture out. However, if you’re keen to step out from this oasis, wider Cancún is easy to get to.
