At Rosewood Mayakoba, soft neutrals and one rich colour suit both the green lagoon and the blue sea. Choose light, moving fabric and bring flat shoes for the paths. Avoid busy prints, logos and neon.
Rosewood guests tend to dress with restraint, and the setting rewards it. The lagoon is deep green, the sea is blue and the wood is warm. Your clothes have to work with all three.
Colours That Work
For the lagoon. White, cream, sand, terracotta and soft rust stand out beautifully against the green. Avoid greens, since you will disappear into the mangroves.
For the beach. White, sand, soft blue and pale pink look clean against the water. Deep navy and emerald look rich at sunset.
For both. If you only bring one outfit, choose ivory, sand or a warm terracotta.
Fabric and Shoes
Linen and light cotton look effortless and move with the breeze, but wrinkle quickly, so dress just before we start. Bring flat sandals for the paths and golf carts, and take them off for the frames. Heels sink into both sand and the lawn.
Rosewood Mayakoba, Through Our Lens
Real IVAE Studios work on this coast, so you can see how this light and water look on camera. It shows our work in the area, not necessarily at Rosewood Mayakoba.
For Families
Choose a colour family, not matching outfits. Dress the children last, and bring a change of clothes for them. Our guides to family outfits and couples outfits have full palettes.
