Thinking about your next family vacation in Mexico? Consider traveling the Yucatan Peninsula and Riviera Maya with Chablé hotels´ and Journey Mexico! Here´s what we love about Chablé´s properties for families:
CHABLE FAMILY FRIENDLY EXPERIENCES
The Chablé experience is rooted in Mayan culture and the stunning surroundings that the properties call home. Family-focused activities showcase Mexico´s ancient culture and natural wealth while making it accessible to younger guests.
Melipona Bees
At Chablé Yucatán, families can learn about the hotel´s Melipona bee colony on a ´Be a Beekeeper´ adventure. Discover the importance of these stingless bees to past and present Maya communities as you take part in a ceremony to ask the ancient Mayan god of bees for a good harvest and collect honey from the hotel´s hives, before enjoying an idyllic family picnic. Little creatives will also love the chance to craft handmade honey sweets, soaps and beeswax candles using ingredients from the beehives!
Games & Activities
Teens can blow off steam at Chablé Yucatán´s fun fitness routes that trail through the hotel´s jungle or join an expert for a guided bike ride through the majestic rainforest. Other children’s activities include: board games, “old-school playtime”, scavenger hunts, “fun-tastic experiments”, nautralist workshops, and arts and crafts.
Water & Land Sports
Chablé Maroma‘s private sandy shores hold lots of opportunities for family fun, from riding flat-tire bikes on the beach and kayaking the calm Mexican Caribbean waters, to paddle boarding out to the reef with the hotel´s sustainability expert to learn about its importance. On dry land, teens can challenge themselves with speed drills and jogging stations on the beach or take a a tennis lesson with the family.
FAMILY VILLA AT CHABLÉ YUCATÁN
Chablé Yucatán´s Family Villa “Casita 23” offers just the right amount of privacy for adults and children. Immersed in the Mayan jungle, these villas are contemporary and cool, featuring a crisp outdoor swimming pool, lazy hammocks, and an al fresco dining terrace. An indoor living area sits between two separate guest rooms with a king and two queen beds, while spacious ensuite bathrooms on either end of the villa frame vibrant tropical leaves through glass window walls. Kids will love feeling like they´re in the heart of the jungle! Enjoy some peace and quiet with modern amenities including coffee, Wi-Fi, and satellite TV.

Maroma´s L-shaped beachfront swimming pool is a treat for all the family, overlooking the hotel´s huge private beach surrounded by mangroves, while all accommodations at Chablé Yucatán feature a private plunge or swimming pool. Adults will want to slip away to the properties´ beautiful spas during their stay, offering hydrotherapy circuits, dynamic treatments and healing therapies.
