I am not going to mince words. No. You cannot get ocean view. Because of the hurricanes on the gulf of Mexico side, the resort is built back a bit and perpendicular to the beach. The Mayan Palace units have 
jungle view and the Grand Mayan units in buildings 1 to 7 can have a view of the beautiful man made lake area. We always request lake view and chances are pretty good.
I Heard You Can Get Ocean View in the Grand Luxxe building.
How can I say this? No. If you hang off the balcony on the top corner unit of the Luxxe building number one, you might get a glimpse of the ocean. But , in general there are no ocean view units. The luxxe
units do have a special reserved area on the luxxe beach/pool area where you can get food delivered from the new Gourmet Burger Custom Made restaurant.
Any other bright ideas for ocean view lovers?
As a matter of fact, yes. The Havana Moon restaurant is right on the beach and there is a patio section with fabulous views of the Caribbean. To get an idea of how to the resort is laid out, check out our Rivier Maya Mayan Resort Map
