La Laguna and Bassano are the two newest restaurants at Fairmont Mayakoba. Both concepts are part of the property’s multi-million-dollar renovation, which is expected to be fully complete by the end of the year.

La Laguna, Fairmont Mayakoba’s ultimate destination for Mexican cuisine, combines traditional and contemporary, which is also reflected in this lively restaurant’s design. The restaurant’s neutral atmosphere mixed with understated yet stunning art, colorful fabrics, and a bar, makes for a beautiful setting inspired by Mexican culture.

La Laguna is located in the center of the hotel and features an open concept kitchen, an al fresco terrace, and a lively lounge. The space is complete with a terrace and private pavilion, overlooking the Mayakoba water canals, for guests to enjoy authentic recipes bursting with flavor and craft cocktails. The Camarones Manchamateles, the restaurant’s signature dish, pays homage to Mayakoba’s roots; A traditional Mexican specialty, it is rich in flavor and finished with citrus notes.

Bassano, a stylish Italian eatery, brings an element of comfort to Mayakoba. Open for lunch and dinner, it focuses on only the simplest of ingredients – egg, flour, and water – while delivering rich flavor in every dish.  The restaurant’s standout menu items include homemade pizzas, their signature pappardelle bolognese, and exquisite wines. Complete with a beautifully designed outdoor pizza bar and oven, Bassano is a true standout on property and the hospitality and ingredient-driven menu keep guests coming back for more.

The continued renovation will be inclusive of many additional restaurant offerings that hotel visitors can expect to enjoy with friends and family this coming winter.
