Signature Vacations has announced that Riu Dunamar will open in Playa Mujeres, Mexico, at the end of this year. Operated by the tour operator's exclusive hotel partner, RIU Hotels and Resorts, and set in a stunning natural environment, the Riu Dunamar is a short transfer from Cancun International Airport.

The resort offers an array of modern amenities including five pools, a fitness centre, varied water sports and numerous à la carte dining options.

Playa Mujeres boasts beautiful beaches and crystal-clear waters perfect for snorkelling and scuba diving on the surrounding coral reefs.

Located on Playa Mujeres Beach, opposite charming Isla Mujeres, Riu Dunamar offers free Wi-Fi throughout along with numerous services and amenities that adults, couples, and families alike will enjoy.

Guests can enjoy complimentary non-motorized water sports such as kayaking and snorkelling. Families will enjoy the daytime programming for children at the RiuLand Kids' Club, while those seeking some rejuvenation can visit the Renova Spa for tranquil massages and other indulgent treatments. Foodies will also appreciate the resort's many refined gastronomic specialties, including gourmet Asian and Italian cuisines from the à la carte dining venues and succulent steakhouse classics.
