All-inclusive Hard Rock Riviera Maya is one of the most unconventional and exciting luxury resorts on the Caribbean, and believes in letting families play by their own rules.

Forget hotels with half-hearted kids menus, hidden away paddling pools, and seen-and-not-heard attitudes, and have Hacienda instead: Hard Rock’s spectacular resort within a resort, entirely dedicated to families; where kids have complete freedom and you get to kick-back, relax and indulge in some ‘rock star in paradise’ moments of your own.

There’s no restriction on wild splashing round Hacienda’s six huge, family pools. Games, sports, watersports and kid-centric space is reserved just for you on the resort’s fabulous Caribbean beaches. And from all-day buffets to swim-up snacking, eating Hacienda style is specifically designed to tempt the pickiest little eaters.

You don’t need to worry about keeping the noise down, taming toddlers or curbing youthful enthusiasm; Hard Rock Hacienda’s built to absorb any amount of exuberance, so just bring it on.

Hard Rock VIP suites made for family-sized families

With 11 different variations on the theme of star-quality sleep, Hacienda rooms and suites aren’t designed with a standard family in mind. They’re created to let families of all shapes and sizes spread out and be themselves in their own personal – and very generous – space; ranging from suites for two adults and two children to two-bedroom layouts for up to six.

Regardless of room size, all families can look forward to treats like kids’ cookies and candy on arrival; cute mini-diva bathrobes, slippers and sleepsuits for the tiniest starlets, plus DVDs, games and an Xbox 360 to satisfy the desires of demanding young screen fiends.

Ultimate Playtime, easy going holiday vibes, perfectly packaged

Hard Rock Hacienda’s Ultimate Playtime packages keep with the theme of cosseting kids and manage to squeeze in plenty of care for deserving parents too.

Individually designed for different age groups, every package includes three hours free babysitting as standard, plus exciting gifts, fun stuff like photos with favourite Little Big Club characters, and even a waterproof camera, for older kids.

Ultimate Playtime Opening Act for babies and toddler from zero to 18 months will seem heaven-sent from the word go. It includes masses of essentials like nappies, wipes, baby food and towels, toys and even a bottle steriliser, so you can finally trim the packing list down and swan off on holiday looking significantly less Sherpa-like than usual.

Playful little starlets love The Little Big Club

The Little Big Club is Hard Rock home to Angelina Ballerina, Barney, Bob the Builder and Thomas the Tank Engine, and about as close as it gets to paradise for kids.

Unfortunately parents can only imagine the live shows, starry character breakfasts, special events and non-stop activity that goes on here, because all wild fun is strictly for four to 12 year olds. But don’t feel too left out, professional pics of your little ones at play are included in the Ultimate Playtime Superstar Package.

A club cool enough to pass the toughest teen test

Getting the club vibe right for older kids can be a tough gig. But Hard Rock are experts in tough to please teens, and they practically invented chill-space, so even the pickiest over 13s won’t find fault with the Cavern.

It’s note-perfect, from lounge-around sofas and mocktail mixologists to game zones and games tables, handpicked playlists and squads of equally cool teens to hang out with.

 

Unleash your future mega-stars at Hard Rock Music Labs

Every kid’s a superstar at Hard Rock Riviera Maya, but for wannabes with ambitions beyond wall-to-wall pampering, acres of swimming pools, watersport laden beaches, and snacks on tap, there’s the serious business of Music Labs to get into.

Over 12s can be a rock idol for the day at JAM BAND or hit MIX and unleash their inner superstar DJ. A full crew are on hand to help create one-off music videos. Future guitar gods get to jam with the greats and lay down tracks in the Hard Rock recording studio. And soulful sorts can always lay their hands on a classic Fender and simply make sweet, sweet music.

Welcome to Camp Woodward, Hard Rock’s home of the brave

Of all the cool stuff for kids at Hard Rock Riviera Maya, nothing is cooler than new Camp Woodward. A 29,000 square foot space inhabited by a full-size skatepark, parkour zone, ski and snowboard zones; pump tracks and mega ramps; cheer & tumble floors, foam pits and trampolines, it’s the first of its kind outside the US, and anyone over the age of seven can come play: no previous experience necessary.

Parents can spectate, or get into fierce family competition round the spectacular Wrecktangle obstacle course. There are Go-Pro cameras for kids to record their adventures, plus live music and DJs, and professional coaching from world-class athletes. Just beware: introduce kids to Camp Woodward early on, and you may not see them for the rest of the holiday.
