While the Caribbean coast of Mexico is filled with everything-included hotels, finding the more authentic, European-plan hotels is not always an easy proposition.

But if you look closely, you can find them.

Indeed, tucked away in the sea of megaresorts that pepper the area are some rarefied, beautiful hotels, from funky boutiques to larger, more traditional luxury hotels, a diverse collection that’s still something of a secret for most travelers.
