Just eight miles north of Cancun across the turquoise waters of the Caribbean Sea, Unik Island Resort & Spa was created to provide an escape for the sophisticated traveler. Tucked away on its own stretch of beach, the resort is accessible via private boat service that departs UNIK's Dockside Registration/Reception area on the mainland near Cancun. The masterful design-an architectural marvel-allows it to blend seamlessly with its exquisite surroundings, a tapestry of azure, bright white and emerald green. A total of 84 rooms and suites, magnificently appointed and sleekly designed, await with exquisite views and every amenity, including flat screen televisions, CD/DVD players, high-speed wireless Internet, luxurious bed linens, laptop-sized safes, Continental breakfast en suite and more. Every room, regardless of category, gets twice-daily maid service, lavish bath amenities and candles, plush bathrobes and slippers, aromatherapy at turndown and an array of other services that keep UNIK's accommodations several steps above the others. The UNIK experience extends from the lavish surroundings to the personalized service and the gourmet dining, characterized by the creative talents of the Executive Chef and the resident Sommelier. There are three plans to choose from, ranging from the European Plan, the Gourmet Tasting Experience (offering a dazzling array of breakfast choices and lunch or dinner with a bottle of wine) and the complete Grand Gourmet Experience, which offers guests a choice of anything and everything, from morning till night, including 24-hour room service. Six restaurants and bars bring Mexican, Asian, and Continental cuisine to life: The View, a contemporary dining experience; Breeze, just steps from the pool with a casual setting open for lunch and dinner; Jade, for an unforgettable dinner; La Isla Grill & Lounge, living up to its name for lunchtime by the pool; the Turquoise Lounge, the setting for High Tea in the afternoon and cigars and drinks in the evenings; and the Aqua Pool Bar, for swim up libations. Beyond the walls, the natural beauty of Isla Mujeres serves as a backdrop for the elegant pool area. After a day of fun in the sun, therapists at the Ixchel Spa soothe tired muscles and rejuvenate spirits with a mixture of Mayan treatments and modern techniques. Meetings and groups are welcome to the state-of-the-art facilities, which can accommodate up to 210 attendees. Business services are available, as are full-service wedding planners for that special occasion, made even more so by the attentive service and the beautiful surroundings. From the moment you enter the realm of the UNIK, you are whisked away from the cares of the world into your own private paradise. If it's all about the details, this is where "it" is.
