(TRAVPR.COM) FL - June 23rd, 2014 - The Newest Royal Resorts Property Brings Authentic Five Star Services and Amenities to Shared Ownership’s Luxury Market; Grand Residences Currently Ranked #1 in Its Area by TripAdvisor

Nestled in a private enclave between scenic Riviera Maya and bustling Cancun, the 103-all-suite Grand Residences Riviera Cancun debuted in December 2013 as the newest resort in the Royal Resorts collection. The resort recently celebrated its sixth month in operation.

Affiliated with The Leading Hotels of the World, this private enclave in picturesque Puerto Morelos sets a new standard in luxury and beachfront living. “Grand Residences succeeds in creating the perfect blend of a laid-back tropical escape and true five star services and amenities,” says [Dr. Simon Crawford Welch, Chief Marketing Officer].

What’s more, Grand Residences has received plenty of recognition from both the industry and vacationers, having earned TripAdvisor’s top ranking in Puerto Morales (with a 94% rating), as well as two 2013 Perspective Magazine awards (Best Fractional Resort in Latin America and Best Fractional Resort Worldwide).

These accolades are because this peaceful sanctuary sets a new standard in luxury beachfront living. The sprawling beachfront suites blend the familiar comforts of home with luxurious amenities and unique touches, such as artisanal gifts at each turndown and chef’s demonstrations with customized menus available for small groups. Gourmet dining, a world-class gym, spa and salon and personalized beach and pool service complete the experience to create the ultimate setting for an intimate couples’ escape or a large family gathering.

As its name suggests, Grand Residences provides home-away-from-home accommodations for the entire family. The resort’s all-suite accommodations are 50 percent larger than other similar units, with more than 8,817 square feet of living space in the four-bedroom presidential penthouse. Groups of up to 13 can be comfortably accommodated together under one roof, perfect for multigenerational travel, and full-sized gourmet kitchens and laundry rooms support the needs of extended stays. Many suites offer private pools with spacious terraces, and all are beautifully appointed with the finest fittings, artwork and custom furnishings. All suites have an updated classic décor with elements from the colonial haciendas of Central Mexico.

Premier Beachfront Location

Grand Residences offers a premier beachfront location and the unique advantage of spectacular beach views from all suites. Just south of the tranquil fishing village, the resort is uniquely set between a nature preserve and the world’s largest barrier reef, and the white-sand beach is just steps away from guest suites.        

But this warm Mexican environment also folds in the art of European hospitality. The resort is led by an Italian general manager with extensive industry experience, and a French executive chef combines his classical training in top kitchens in Lausanne and Paris with years of experience with Mexican cuisine.  Every evening at 4 p.m. guests can enjoy traditional European tea service complete with a variety of teas, pastries and sweets.

A Rich Heritage

Grand Residences enjoys the longevity of its parent company, Royal Resorts. As a highly successful real estate development corporation, Royal Resorts has specialized in developing and operating large-scale projects in Cancún and Riviera Maya for more than 30 years, and is a pioneer of vacation ownership development in Mexico.

“We are more than pleased with the success of Grand Residences and incredibly positive reception it continues to generate,” says [Dr. Kemil A. Rizk, Chief Executive Officer of Royal Resorts]. “We look forward to many years of providing the highest levels of service and amenities there in order to ensure our owners and guests are beyond satisfied.”
