Desire Resorts Mexico

SDC Travel

These resorts are clothing-optional, couples-only retreats in Mexico catering to open-minded adults in and outside of the lifestyle and everyone in between.

Desire Riviera Maya Resort & Spa
Desire Pearl Resort & Spa

Located about half an hour south of Cancun, along the beaches of Puerto Morelos, you find both Desire Resorts & Spas about 20 minutes away from each other. These resorts are clothing-optional, couples-only retreats in Mexico catering to open-minded adults in and outside of the lifestyle and everyone in between. Each property provides a wonderful yet secluded ambiance, offering multiple restaurants and bars, a daily activities program and nightly adult entertainment.

All you desire at Desire Resorts

Both nudist resorts are beautiful with spacious suites, pools and hot tubs, spas, gyms and nightclubs. The onsite stores are filled with all of the sexy outfits and accessories for the theme nights you could wish for. Everything is available where you need it, when you need it. Considering the clothing-optional aspect, be that bit entirely up to you, it's a given that photography and cellphones are not allowed in the public areas. First time visitors, it may be somewhat awkward at first, yet we are positive that you'll be happily basking in the sun in the buff as well if not already on day one, for sure on day two.

What sets these two resorts really apart is the overall super friendliness of the completely nonjudgmental staff, who will remember you on consecutive visits! The good thing is also that both resorts are providing a different feel, so it's a great option to be able to visit the other resort with a 15-minute taxi ride and that way enjoy the best of both resorts.

RM vs Pearl: The Difference

Both resorts are brilliant in their own ways, but there are differences for sure.

Desire Pearl is somewhat more upscale and the rooms and pool plus the Jacuzzi are bigger. If you wish for a more quiet experience, Pearl is your choice. The grounds are more spread out and more lush. The disco is also somewhat larger at Pearl and on the ground floor. The disco in RM is a staircase climb up, which for ladies on high heels can be a bit tricky. There is definitely more lifestyle action in RM. So if you are in the 20 - 40 age range and an active lifestyler, you're probably best served by the more intimate setting of RM. You have beautiful ocean views from both resorts, but in RM the view is more blocked by the ocean front buildings. The Jacuzzi in RM is the place to be for an action packed evening. The quality of the food and the entertainment overall is higher in Pearl, but the pricing is higher as well.

SDC Takeovers & Events

SDC and Desire share a long and happy history together. SDC stood at the birth of Desire so many years ago and held about 3 well-loved events each year at the original Riviera Maya and a few at Desire Pearl. This hotel was formerly known as Ceiba Del Mar, which was quickly picked up by the Original Group in 2012 after SDC's first takeover there, morphing it into the more upscale Desire Pearl. As SDC enjoys an explosive growth in recent years and continues to expand and whereas both Resorts can only accommodate a limited amount of guests, SDC is now looking forward to offer new and bigger yearly events at an alternative, all-inclusive, 5 star location close to Cancun.
