Thanksgiving is a holiday many prefer to celebrate at home with friends and family, and that’s unlikely to change in 2020, a year that’s been defined by uncertainty amid the ongoing coronavirus pandemic.
Nonetheless, the luxe Fairmont Mayakoba in Mexico’s alluring Riviera Maya region is pulling out all of the stops to ensure guests come away with a memorable Thanksgiving experience this year, including mouthwatering family-style meals featuring all of the Turkey Day classics, live music, drink specials, NFL tailgates, one-of-a-kind beach experiences and even seasonal spa treatments for those seeking rejuvenation after a tumultuous year.
The AAA Five Diamond and Rainforest Certified resort located just outside of Playa del Carmen will offer a Tuscan Roasted Turkey Special—white and dark turkey accompanied by gravy, Fairmont stuffing, mashed potato or risotto Milanese, green bean casserole and cranberry sauce—at El Puerto restaurant as well as a family-style fried turkey dinner—fried turkey, roast beef, baked fish, seasonal roasted vegetables, oysters and giblet stuffing along with a pie flight tasting—at Brisas Coastal Grill & Bar on Thanksgiving Day, Thursday, November 26.
