Day-to-Day Itinerary

An itinerary outline can be found here: Mayan Riviera: Itinerary Outline

The times and events noted in this itinerary will vary on each getaway, but you can view this schedule to get an idea of what to expect.

The Grand Palladium Colonial Resort and Spa

The Grand Palladium is an all-inclusive resort that lies on the picturesque Mayan Riviera, just a short drive from both Playa del Carmen and Tulum. Set within lush, tropical gardens, this palatial escape is situated alongside soft, white sand lapped by the turquoise Caribbean Sea. It offers a varied selection of buffets and a la carte restaurants, several pools, and fun activities and entertainment.

When you’re not on the pickleball courts, you’ll be able to enjoy everything the resort has to offer alongside new friends and fellow players! There will be various social events for you to get to know other guests on this getaway and make new memories alongside them. We will also offer some off-site excursions (at an additional cost) to explore local areas and enjoy new experiences.

Dates

December 7th-14th, 2024

This getaway is 8 days and 7 nights.

Pickleball

The clinics with our other coaches will accumulate to 7.5+ hours of instruction throughout the week, with a premium ratio of students-to-coaches. There will also be fun mini games, open play at any time, and meetup play for players at similar skill levels. All these fun pickleball activities will take place on tennis courts that will be divided into 15 temporary pickleball courts for our personal use.

The coaches for this getaway have not been decided on yet. To get a sneak peek of who might be there, though, you can check out our Guest Pros page.

Mayan Riviera, Mexico

In Mexico, the Yucatan peninsula’s Caribbean Coast stretches from Cancun to the border of Belize. The 80-mile slice from Tulum to the Punta Allen peninsula is known as the Riviera Maya. Here, travel is all about the turquoise sea that laps at powder-fine sand. Ancient remnants of the Mayan civilization dot the region, making travel here unique and cultivating. The Mayan Riviera boasts the second largest barrier reef in the world as well as hundreds of miles of cenotes (underwater rivers). If you want to enjoy the warmest sun, waves, reefs, and natural wells on the Caribbean coast, Riviera Maya is where you want to be! You will also find world class restaurants, a night life to keep you dancing until morning, exclusive spas, shopping centers, and some of the world’s best golf courses.
