A Couples Photoshoot at Excellence Riviera Cancún: Spots, Times and Prices

With a pier, a stone gazebo and a calm beach, Excellence Riviera Cancún gives a couples session three very different looks. Here is our plan.

The Session at a Glance

• ResortAdults-only, Excellence Collection, near Puerto Morelos
• Ceremony sitesStone gazebo, beach gazebo and a pier
• ReceptionsGaribaldi Square, Agave, Las Olas, the beach, a ballroom, X-Lounge
• Beach facesEast, behind the protected reef

Where We Shoot

The pier. Open water on three sides; the signature frame.

The stone gazebo. Texture and shade when the sun is strong.

The beach. Calm water for walking frames.

Sunrise or Sunset

Times for this beach on the 15th of each month in 2027.

The reef keeps the water calm, which suits children and in-the-water frames. The hour before sunset gives soft, even light; sunrise lifts straight out of the sea.

How the Photographer Gets In

Access is simple for guests of Excellence Riviera Cancún. Put the photographer's name on your reservation at the front desk with the time of the session, and we meet you in the lobby. Resorts usually reserve their outside vendor fee for weddings, so a private session for a staying guest is very seldom charged, though we always confirm the current rule in writing first. Visitors who are not staying at the resort normally need a day pass; this guide explains how it works.
