Highlights for our November 2026 Mexico trip


  • Valentin Imperial Riviera Maya is one of my favorite 4 star all inclusive adults only resorts in Riviera Maya, with a lovely large sprawling complex including the jungle and the beach

  • We have a room block in place for our club which locks in our room rates at the resort

  • Removed from the busier areas of Riviera Maya but not too far from great places to visit like downtown Playa del Carmen, various cenotes, snorkeling locations, Tulum, and more Mayan ruins

  • I have personally toured Valentin Imperial Riviera Maya and it’s a favorite for my honeymoon and destination wedding clients!

  • There are 9 room options to choose from at various price points

  • Our room block is set up so you can check in as early November 9th and stay until November 20th (your travel dates MUST include November 12th-15th)

  • Flights, airport transfers, and travel insurance can all be booked directly through Classic Vacations. Flight schedules come out about 11 months in advance

Important Travel Planning Information


  • As a general rule your passports should be valid at least 6 months AFTER your return from travel abroad, although different airlines and countries may have different rules. Utilize only the official government website for passport applications, renewals, and updates

  • The name used to book your travel must match what is on your passport EXACTLY. Differences may result in costs to update, loss of booked components, and denied flight boarding and hotel checkin

  • We HIGHLY recommend you book a travel insurance policy with proper coverages prior to your departure that includes benefits such as emergency medical coverage. Be aware that some policies only offer coverage for pre-existing conditions if booked with 14 days of making your trip deposit

  • Although gratuities are typically “included” an all inclusive resorts in Mexico, I HIGHLY ENCOURAGE that you plan to bring small bills with you for tipping your resort staff each day as the pre-paid gratuities rarely make it to the right people, and the staff onsite are working their butts off every day to make sure our trip is as lovely as possible. PLEASE include this daily expense in your overall trip planning and budget

Booking Flights from the US to Mexico

  • If you check luggage, invest in apple airtags or a similar GPS tracker to locate your luggage in case it gets lost
