Valentin Imperial is one of the best Choices For Groups!
If you’re planning a group trip to Riviera Maya, Mexico, and looking for a luxurious, adults-only all-inclusive resort, let me introduce you to Valentin Imperial Riviera Maya—a resort I recently toured firsthand!
Whether your group is celebrating a birthday, bachelorette party, couples’ retreat, wedding, or just a fun getaway, Valentin Imperial has everything you need for an incredible vacation—gorgeous pools, fantastic restaurants, top-tier entertainment, and spacious accommodations.
Here’s a full breakdown of why Valentin Imperial is one of the best resorts for groups!
A Huge, Stunning Resort That Never Feels Crowded
One of my favorite things about Valentin Imperial is the size of the property. It’s spread out beautifully, meaning there’s always plenty of space to relax without feeling crowded.
- 540 rooms across 14 buildings (12 rooms per building)
- Multiple pools (from lively to quiet)
- Gorgeous tropical gardens and walking paths
- Large beachfront area with plenty of loungers
💡 Pro Tip: If you arrive before check-in, you can use the courtesy rooms to freshen up. The bellhop will hold your luggage while you explore, grab food, or relax by the pool!
The Perfect Room for Every Type of Group
Picking the right room for your group is key! Here’s a breakdown of the different categories and what makes each one special:
🛏️ Silver Rooms (Best for Budget-Friendly Stays & Nature Lovers)
- Set furthest from the beach but surrounded by lush tropical gardens.
- Each room has a jacuzzi in the middle, separated by curtains.
- Max occupancy: 2 people.
💡 Tip: If you want more privacy, upgrade to a Golden or Emerald suite!
🏡 Deluxe Junior Suites (Best Central Location)
- Located in the middle of the resort, making it easy to get anywhere.
- Perfect for those who want quick access to both pools and restaurants.
🏖️ Golden Junior Suites (Best for Pool Lovers & Beach Proximity)
- Located closer to the beach, but a bit further from the main dining areas.
- These rooms have their own exclusive pool for a more private experience.
- Bottom-floor suites have direct pool access—just step off your patio and into the water!
🌊 Emerald Junior Suites (Closest to the Beach, Perfect for Ocean Lovers)
- Steps from the beach! You can hear and smell the ocean, but beach views are not guaranteed (they can be requested).
- Guests receive a complimentary bottle of liquor to take home.
🌟 Onyx Rooms (Best for Luxury & Extra Space)
- Huge suite with a massive balcony and an outdoor hot tub.
- Perfect for honeymooners or couples who want extra space and privacy.
💡 Tip: If your group wants a private pool experience, book Golden Swim-Up Suites!
Pools: Whether You Want to Relax or Party, There’s a Pool for You!
One of the best things about Valentin Imperial is the variety of pools. Whether your group wants a social scene, relaxation, or a mix of both, you’ll find the perfect pool.
🍹 Main Pool (The Social & Party Pool!)
- Features a huge swim-up bar and daily entertainment.
- Perfect for groups who love meeting new people, music, and fun vibes.
- Located near the main restaurants and bars for easy access.
🌊 Golden Pool (More Relaxed & Private)
- Exclusive for Golden Room guests.
- Smaller, quieter, and perfect for groups who want a private pool experience.
💦 Private Pools (For Silver & Golden Room Guests)
- Silver and Golden room categories have their own smaller pools, away from the main crowds.
💡 Tip: You can’t reserve pool chairs before 8:30–9 AM. If you try, the resort will store your belongings in a secure box to ensure fair access for everyone.
Amazing Restaurants (No Reservations Needed!)
