Luxury Afloat on Insuite Plunge Pools at Velas Resorts in Mexico

Renowned for its exceptional hospitality and commitment to providing extraordinary guest experiences, Velas Resorts throughout Mexico announce the introduction of its latest amenity, “Float My Boat”.

Each resort has a different floating tray that elegantly and in some cases, extravagantly, showcases curated culinary and beverage selections, from Imperial Ossetra Caviar and Moët & Chandon champagne to a sweet corn tamale topped with golden caramel popcorn and gold flaked margaritas.

The new amenity brings together the finest flavors of the resorts’ award-winning culinary teams paired with stunning views. The amenity includes the following at each resort:

• Grand Velas Los Cabos: The amenity at Grand Velas Los Cabos features a floating breakfast tray with an assortment of items including Belgian-style waffles with red fruit compote and caramelized seeds, house made granola, lobster benedict, a souffle with sauteed spinach and mushrooms, pancakes, hash browns, avocado toast, Osetra Caviar, and more. The tray will be served with a bottle of Moët & Chandon champagne and a variety of juices. This service is exclusive to the resort’s Governor, Grand Class, Grand Class Corner, Presidential, Royal, and Imperial suites. $300 + service charge.
• Grand Velas Riviera Maya: The over the top amenity includes Imperial Ossetra Caviar accompanied with blinis, creme fraiche and chives, along with an assorted selection of luxury appetizers and desserts including Jamón ibérico, king crab legs, smoked salmon, a selection of cheese, fresh berries, and a chocolate dessert. Champagne Louis Roederer Brut Premier is included. This service is exclusive to suites with plunge pools, including the Zen Pool Suite Nature View, Ambassador Pool Suite Ocean Front View, and Grand Class Suite Ocean Front View. $400 + service charge.
• Grand Velas Riviera Nayarit: This option is ideal for cocktail enthusiasts with a trilogy of gold flaked margaritas including cucumber and lime; hibiscus and rosemary; and mango and jalapeño. The margaritas, which can be served frozen or on the rocks, are served with chips and freshly made guacamole. The amenity is available for guests to enjoy at the pool in the adults-only area. $220 + service charge.
• Casa Velas: The floating tray at Casa Velas is available as an after dinner treat and features a sweet corn tamale topped with caramel popcorn and Mexican caramel sauce paired with sparkling Mexican wine. The exclusive amenity is available for guests to enjoy in their private pools in the one- and two-bedroom Ambassador and Presidential suites. $150 + service charge.
