One connected Paradisus stay, two ways to book
Both Paradisus options are on the same connected beachfront campus. Pick the family-friendly side or the adults-only side and you will still be right with everyone.
Adults only
Paradisus La Perla
This is the adults-only side of the connected resort, and it is where we are staying. Guests here can move freely between both sides of the property.

Things to see and do
Chichen Itza
If you want one signature excursion away from the resort, this is the classic big-history day trip.
Rio Secreto
One of the best polished adventure options nearby if you want something cooler and more dramatic than another pool day.
Xcaret Park
Easy group option for wildlife, swimming, food, and a full vacation-day itinerary close to Playa.
Visit cenotes
Perfect if you want a freshwater break from the beach with jungle scenery, easy swimming, and a half-day or full-day outing nearby.
Swim with the turtles
A favorite Riviera Maya day trip if you want warm water, sea turtles, and something memorable without doing a full all-day bus tour.
Tour local Playa del Carmen
Walk into town, check out local restaurants and shops, grab coffee or dinner, and enjoy an easy night near the resort.
Next step

What you need to do
- RSVP. Use the form to let us know exactly who is coming so we can plan seating and everything else for the wedding.
- Book your flight. We are flying Air Transat TS922 direct if you want to join us on that one.
- Reserve your room. Put down the deposit through our wedding booking page. If you want an upgraded room, send us a message and we can help make that happen with our discounted rate. For a full refund, cancel before November 17, 2026.
- Wait for transfer details. Once we know people's flight times, we will sort out the transfer plan and let everyone know. There may be an extra cost. As a current backup estimate, a private round-trip transfer to Paradisus is running about USD 85 to 110 round trip total for up to 3 people, depending on the provider.
- Pay the rest when you arrive. The remaining balance gets paid at the resort, and then the only thing left to do is settle in and enjoy the week.

How resort payment works
You only need to put down a one-night deposit when you reserve your room through the wedding booking page.
For a full refund, cancel before November 17, 2026.
You will pay the remaining balance directly to the resort when you arrive.
Once we get closer to the date and know numbers, we will sort out the transfer situation and try to organize a shared ride or group bus for as many guests as possible.
