As described by the Grand Mayan website "Welcome to The Grand Mayan — inspired by ancient history and built with comfort in mind. Immerse yourself in the world of the Mayans at the grand entrance to the resort. Imposing, larger-than-life Mayan figures greet you in near-total darkness. The excitement here is palpable and there's fun for all ages — a Mayan pyramid that doubles as a water slide, a “lazy river” that winds through jungle vegetation, and so much more. The Grand Mayan, steeped in the tradition of the native culture and rich with the modern conveniences of a five-star resort. Whether you seek adventure or relaxation, you’ll find it here."
