Netflix's new reality dating show, Love is Blind [1], aims to ask if love is really, well, blind. The insanely popular show, which has already inspired countless memes [2], follows a group of men and women who experiment with falling in love (and then committing to propose) to someone they've never met. In the finale, each couple [3] chooses to get married or "walk away forever," as hosts Nick and Vanessa Lachey put it. While these couples may or may not stay together [4], one thing they'll always have is the romantic and beautiful resort they spent time at on the show.
The AAA Five Diamond resort Grand Velas Riviera Maya in Playa Del Carmen [5], Mexico, was the setting for the post-pod/pre-wedding time each couple got to experience with their new fiancés. And now the resort is offering their own version of the Love is Blind Experience [6], with a romantic pre-curated package of the ultra-luxe amenities portrayed on the show.
Accommodations include a gorgeous grand class suite overlooking the ocean, in-suite service for an intimate dinner, options for couples activities and dates, and basically everything you could wish for if you were imitating the ultra-rich life of a Netflix fantasy. The Love is Blind [7] Experience must be booked by March 31st for travel before December 18th, so keep reading to get a peek into everything you and your partner could could experience on vacation while, you know, actually looking at each other.
You'll Receive a Truly Royal Welcome
Unlike vacations where check-ins are stressful and everyone is tired and hungry from the flight, this package aims for a dreamy and romantic vibe from the moment you get off the plane to long after you enter the resort. Round-trip airport transportation is included, so no need to worry about Uber, and you will receive a glass of sparkling wine and chocolate truffles when you arrive to cure any travel blues.
You'll Have a Suite With Your Own Private Plunge Pool
The resort itself is gorgeous, but honestly, if you never wanted to leave the room, we don't blame you. This 1,300-square-foot suite includes an oceanfront terrace with a plunge pool just for you, a walk-in glass shower, a deep soaking Jacuzzi tub, and a mini bar stocked daily. Nearly all activities you could want can be brought to your room, including massage lessons.
You'll Enjoy Dinner on Your Private Oceanfront Terrace
Like we said, the suite is like living in a dream, and for couples who are a bit more private and just want time for each other, this package includes many ways for some quality one on one time. Just like in Love Is Blind [9], each couple who books the package will spend a night eating under the stars and listening to the waves from their oceanfront terrace. The three-course meal is catered to you, and if you're anything like Gigi and Damian from the show, you can also opt out of dessert for some "alone time," but really, dessert isn't something we'd pass up.
You'll Get Resort Credit
Included in your package is a $100 credit for private stargazing, an oceanfront picnic in paradise, or other romantic experiences. You can surprise your loved one with a movie on the beach or learn standup paddle boarding. You may even want to explore how well you duet together by visiting the resort's karaoke bar. Whatever the activity, you have credit to put toward your romantic plans.
There's an Amazing Spa
The couples on Love Is Blind [10] got to take their emotional connection and turn it into a physical one, and the resort's spa is perfectly positioned to solidify that bond. You'll receive a $50 credit for massage lessons, a couples' massage, or Water Ceremony or other treatments while there, and many of these options are designed with couples in mind. So, while you relax, you shouldn't fear missing out on connecting with your partner.
