  • BAR BALAM
    Bar Balam is UNICO 20°87°’s day-to-night cocktail
    bar, radiating warmth, while calling to mind the mystique
    of hidden-door cocktail dens of yore. Balam, which
    translates to jaguar in Mayan, is a powerful spirit in the
    ancient Mayan tradition and a divine symbol of strength.
    This sense of strength and boldness comes to life through
    the creatively vibrant cocktail menu, which presents an
    insightful Mexican take on classic cocktail tradition.
  • Cafe Inez
    Relax at our coffee shop and enjoy quick bites & a juice bar.

    Café Inez is UNICO 20°87°’s take on café culture, offering guests an essential place to meet on property, or a quick stopover for bites between activities. It’s the perfect place to refuel, rejuvenate and recharge. Fresh smoothies, coffee, tea and baked goods are served in the morning while the menu transitions to sandwiches, paninis and meal-sized salads for lunch and dinner.
  • Cueva Siete

    Indulge in sumptuous Modern Mexican cuisine prepared celebrity Chef Bravo. Dinner served a la carte.

    Cueva Siete is a unique rotating celebrity chef concept that changes yearly. Next up to take the reins is Chef Xavier Pérez, the culinary mastermind behind Axiote Restaurant who has been crowned “Best Chef in Mexico,” and Canada’s winner of “Iron Chef.” His culinary concept is simple–Mexican cuisine made from 100% Mexican ingredients

  • GIN TIME
    Gin Time is a new bar concept combining the subtlety
    of tea and the spirit of Gin. The concept takes
    inspiration from tea-based cocktails which combine
    natural tea infusions with Gin. The bar can be found
    on the terrace of the hotel’s casual beach side venue,
    20.87 Restaurant
  • Mi Carisa
    Revel in the old world splendor of coastal Italian cuisine. Enjoy a variety of a la carte offerings here. 

    Mi Carisa is a love letter to the romantic coastlines and flavors of the Mediterranean. UNICO 20°87°’s most elevated dining experience, Mi Carisa focuses on the traditions and practices of coastal Italian cuisine, and features a beautiful wood-burning oven. The warm, intimate setting lets each bite convey a sincere affection for the coastal Mediterranean lifestyle. 
  • Mura House
    This iconic Japanese yakitori & teppanyaki restaurant is guaranteed to please. 

    While Mura House draws flavors and techniques from Asia, with a concentration on Japan, its cuisine is guided by three principles: the harmony of flavor, precision through preparation, and quality of ingredients. The restaurant aims to achieve a balance between tradition and uniqueness by bringing together three different styles of Japanese cuisine-teppanyaki, yakitori, and sushi.
  • PALMERA LOUNGE
    When prohibition struck in the U.S., many left for the
    alluring nightlife of nearby Cuba. Playing homage to this
    cocktail renaissance, Palmera Lounge features expertlycrafted libations, and boisterous entertainment. With live
    shows happening weekly, it’s almost impossible to not
    dance along.
  • POOL BARS
    In the mood for a cocktail or snack? Head to our
    swim-up bars, La Escondida and 20°87°, or stay
    poolside at La UNICA snack bar. At all three you’ll
    enjoy expertly-crafted drinks and a full-menu, while
    soaking up the warm Rivera Mayan sun.

    Honeymoon trip! Would recommend to anyone!

    We went on our honeymoon to UNICO 2087. I did a lot of research on my own to try to find the right place for us & I’m so glad I did because it was everything we wanted and more, we will definitely be coming back! It’s definitely a luxury resort & was affordable for the quality of service and experience you receive. From the stunning views, the GREAT food, over the top service, and just beautiful resort, it’s really an amazing place. Every single person there was so kind & we had a great host, Laura. I can’t wait until we come back!

    Couples trip

    Great service overall, very friendly and courteous staff. Clean rooms and pools. I enjoyed the restaurants and most were easy to get into. My only complaint is the pool was cold, wish they would warm it up. I would come back, enjoyed the trip.

    The most relaxing, incredible 6 days in paradise!

    Our stay at Unico was incredible! The swim up room was a great choice. The restaurants were all fantastic, everyone is so helpful and hospitable. A walk on the beach each morning was beautiful. They offer something for everyone. Multiple pools. The swim up bar service was fantastic! Our butlers, Alexander & Alejandro were the BEST! We’re already looking forward to going again.

    Very enjoyable but falls short of excellence

    Overall a very enjoyable vacation, smaller resort, very clean and modern. Beds were very comfortable and rooms clean and modern. Modern decor and furniture does not always translate into good and comfortable and often found the seating in the waiting areas, lounges and restaurants uncomfortable. Service was generally good but not 5 diamond excellent. There were definitely some deficiencies. (I can comment on some though that stood out - Laura and Rodrigo as butlers, Lucia at the pool, waiter at the Italian restaurant and Inez coffee bar and every one working there was excellent!) Food options were very good mostly but really missed the option of a dinner buffet which they don’t have, everything was themed ala carte eg Steakhouse Grill, Italian - 4 restaurants to choose total. Would say 50% of food was excellent, 30% very good and 20% mediocre. Pools and beach all very nice / excellent facilities, well maintained and never difficulty in finding chairs and recliners. We are Legendary members with 10 year Hall of Fame / VIP status and joined as part of the original Palace membership in 2010. We have not regretted our membership and have enjoyed our many trips and stays at various Hard Rock and Legendary resorts. Also happy to return however will not encourage an upgrade to any Hall of Fame level. It is a LOT of money with subpar service upgrade from our experience. There are often service misses in this area and sales over promises and under delivers and we can no longer trust them to keep their word to fix or deliver. Too often get told sorry, we are not perfect, but they do nothing to rectify despite what they say, or show any remorse or indication they value us as HOF members. Go with an open mind and enjoy, and I will recommend this resort (especially nice as adults only) but don’t be hypnotized by their 5 Diamond spiel and think carefully before opening up you wallets to upgrade your membership if you have one.
