Between the resort's two rows of villas is a tropical forest containing beautiful old trees that shade most of the resort's center. Within the forest are two cenotes, or natural wells rising from the underground freshwater rivers coursing through the Yucatan Peninsula's limestone layers and flowing toward the sea. The Reef Club has been acclaimed for preserving this forest, including building a wood platform in the middle so guests can walk through the forest above the depressions occupied by the cenotes. Cool and dark during the day, the platform glows magically at night when illuminated ropes around tree trunks are turned on.

Insider tip: Scattered here and there beside paths through the grounds are sets of concrete chairs joined at one arm so they face one another. These sets are called tu y yo chairs (you and me) and are designed for romance.
