The celebration began with an Andaz Salon event at Casa Amate, the resort’s signature fine-dining restaurant, where Andaz Mayakoba’s architect Ronald Zurcher spoke about the property’s cultural and nature-inspired design.

Festivities continued poolside with the Mayan jungle-themed party that hosted a number of theatrical performances as well as cultural programming such as the resort’s signature and award-winning Frida’s Wardrobe experience where guests were invited to get an inside look into the life of famous Mexican artist, Frida Kahlo.

With an array of food stations, a full menu of exotic cocktails, and music spun by DJ Jared Dietch, guests were entertained all throughout the night as they welcomed in the new luxury resort.
