At the Mayakoba Open in Playa del Carmen, Mexico, the world’s best female players will have the opportunity to participate in the long-term men’s tour El Camaleón.

The match is the first time that the LPGA has played in Mexico since the 2017 Lorena Ochoa match, held at the Mexican Club in Mexico City.

The Mayakoba area is surrounded by four luxury hotels, all of which offer some tempting R&R options from Scuba
Diving, snorkeling and boating, explore thousands of cenot insects or natural sewage puddles in the area. (One, however, is avoided: the famous cenote living on the 7th fairway of El Camaleón.)

For a day’s event in Mayakoba, there is no better place to relax than the Zapote Bar in Rosewood Mayakoba, a airy tropical enclave that has been named the best bar in the world. Zapote offers many handmade cocktails that are inspired by Yucatán style, but its signature drink is Mayayo, an imagination of the Mexican gimlet.

“It’s a little spicy, from Habanero chili, from the kind sweetness,” said Ricardo Bobadilla, bar manager at Rosewood Mayakoba. “You can really taste the herbs from the jungle.”

What Bobadilla says really makes the drink unique. The spirit comes from Yucatán and combines 17 plant ingredients, including flavors including chili, pepper, cardamom and fresh fruit. Then, pair the gin with a affectionate homemade one that includes lime, lemon leaves, guava and lime (ingredients obtained from the resort’s on-site garden) to create a cocktail that is both fruity and floral.

The exercise that combines these flavors is actually part of the fun. Mayayo is a welcome facility for every guest
Rosewood, made with a “throw” technique, is an interesting wonder that involves pouring from one cup from one cup to another from every height.

Guests are so fascinated by Mayayo that it has become a major attraction for travelers from all over the world. Can Bobadilla explain the intoxicating appeal of cocktails?

“It’s simple,” he said. “Mayayo tastes like Yucatán in Mexico.”
