Family Fun
In the Marine National Park, home to one of the world's largest and richest reef systems, Presidente InterContinental Cozumel Resort & Spa is a best-of-both-worlds getaway offering quiet seclusion by the Caribbean Sea and entertainment for the whole family. The Chiqui Club keeps youngsters entertained while parents enjoy the two spas, nearby golf course and snorkelling. www.LHW.com/hicozumel

Cabo Style
With its stunning seaside setting, sprawling layout over 25 acres and authentic Mexican design scheme, the One & Only Palmilla strikes a perfect balance between laid-back and uber-chic. Jean-Georges Vongerichten's Market restaurant thrills foodies while an ESPA with 13 private treatment villas, three picture-perfect pool areas and access to some of the area's top golfing – including a 27-hole Jack Nicklaus signature course – keep everyone entertained. Butler service is provided to all rooms, with dedicated butlers assigned to each suite. www.LHW.com/palmilla

On the Riviera
Banyan Tree Mayakoba celebrates the stunning natural setting of the Riviera Maya's ecologically sensitive Mayakoba development. Interiors offer a mix between authentic Mexican touches and Asian serenity, and the property's many lounge areas, with striking ocean views, invite relaxation. The award-winning spa is a major draw, as are the villas with their own pools and guests' access to the Greg Norman-designed golf course. www.LHW.com/banyanmayakoba

Coastal Pampering
At Secrets Marquis Los Cabos it's difficult to decide what is more beautiful: the sweeping vistas of the Sea of Cortez or the colourful, comfortable interiors complete with original works of art. Spa Marquis, a Leading Spa focused on mind-body wellness, is one of the best - and largest - in Mexico. Equally acclaimed is Canto del Mar, the property's fine-dining restaurant. Restricted to adult guests, Marquis is a perfect enclave for escaping the winter blues.
