Blue Bay Getaway Resort - full service, all inclusive, adults onlyBlue Bay getaway resort is a great place for a singles or couples vacation. You can reserve a room with double occupancy or a private room as a single. The chain of four Blue Bay resorts consists of 6 locations in Mexico and Costa Rica. The Blue Bay Getaway Resort is Adults Only.
Blue Bay Getaway Resort is an all inclusive adults only full service resort in Cancun, Mexico. Most beach resorts in Cancun attract international guests from countries world wide and Blue Bay has its share. So, topless sun bathing is frequent and typical on the beaches there. Nudity is not yet accepted on the principle beaches as clothing-optional sunbathing opportunities are not yet the norm for Mexico. Blue Bay Getaway is not a nudist resort; it is an adults only property where topless sunbathing is accepted and common. This is a great place for a singles or couples vacation. You can reserve a room with double occupancy or as a single room for privacy. Do not confuse this resort with its other resort Cancun, Blue Bay Club across the bay which is a family all inclusive hotel, with reciprocal visitation rights.
Blue Bay Getaway Resort is located on the beach right in the north hotel zone of Cancun. Blue Bay Getaway Resort's predecessor resort, Playa Blanca, was the first resort structure built in the hotel zone in the late 1970s when Cancun was born. The present resort faces northward toward the Mexican Caribbean. A little aside: the surf is almost non-existent on the north side of the hotel zone and therefore, no pounding waves which tends to spawn patches of seaweed. Don't expect a pure perfect, endless stretch of white beach as parts of the sandy bottom is prone to seaweed colonies.
The resort is full service, all inclusive, adults only. There are daily activities, nightly entertainment in an open air theatre setting, non-motorized water sports, wind surfing, snorkeling, optional scuba diving, adult games, and of course beaches and 3 swimming pools. The smartest, most fun part of the pool is the four Jacuzzis located at the free form pool's edge, inside the pool; not beside the pool and right near the bar. A nice touch is that introductory scuba diving lessons are provided complimentary before you have to pony up the cash to actually take diving lessons.
Many beaches in Cancun are topless but not nude (yet) ! Other features include free bicycles, 6 restaurants, 5 bars, an exercise room and numerous tours and sight seeing in the area. A fun activity is to sign on for a jet ski ride through the surrounding everglades and beautiful lagoons. Boutiques are on site and shops are next door. Tennis courts are on premises, too.
There are several dining opportunities on site. The first is an Italian dining restaurant, an Oriental themed restaurant, a buffet for breakfast, lunch and dinner plus a beachside snack bar. Theme dinners at night lend some variety to the evening meal occasion. There are also a steakhouse and a Mexican restaurant on site, too.
The place is very active all the time. The Blue Bay getaway resort and spa is very compact with 387 rooms located throughout the property in several hotel buildings, each two or three stories high. There is a nice open air theatre for evening entertainment and performances. There is no disco on site but there are numerous lounges, boutiques, bistros, restaurants, clubs and shops up and down the boulevard near the hotel.
Most of the social activity is centered around the pool and beach bar area plus the lobby bar near the reception area during the day. Night time, most guests will be busy with dinner and drinks, and then attend the evening's entertainment.
