Sports Camp Opens At Hard Rock Riviera Maya

A stay at one of the All-Inclusive Hard Rock Hotels is truly all things to all people.

Take the property in Riviera Maya, for instance.

There’s Heaven, the aptly named adults-only portion of the resort with its private pools and nightlife. And there’s Hacienda, the section geared toward families with a zero entry pool and Ultimate Play Club.

Now, Hard Rock Riviera Maya is introducing yet another aspect of its evolution as one of the world's leading all-inclusive brands.

Hard Rock Hotel Riviera Maya and Camp Woodward—a world-renowned leader in lifestyle and action sports—announced the grand opening of an experiential concept that will merge luxurious tropical accommodations with on-property adventure.

Welcome to Camp Woodward Riviera Maya.

July 15 marked the debut of the brand-new Camp Woodward facility at Hard Rock Hotel Riviera Maya, the first action-sport purpose-built facility in the Caribbean. As if your days aren’t already jam-packed with things to do, Camp Woodward promises to provide guests with an unparalleled, action-packed vacation experience.

“Woodward is a renowned destination for both ambitious youth and professional athletes, and we look forward to a successful and long-lasting partnership with the Woodward family,” Frank Maduro, VP of Marketing for AIC Hotel Group, parent of Hard Rock Hotels, said in a statement.

The highly anticipated Woodward Riviera Maya facility includes more than 20,000 square feet of state-of-the-art equipment.

Skateboarding and BMX parks? Check.

Tumbling floor and foam pit? Check.

Trampolines? Check.

There’s even an accompanying snack bar and second-floor viewing promenade where family and friends can gather to watch all the action. A DJ on the top floor cranks out thumping, jumping music.

Camp Woodward was conceived as a space to merge cultural experiences with adventure, providing guests with the ability to be fully immersed in a custom design that incorporates Hard Rock’s signature vibe (hence the music). Camp Woodward Riviera Maya also boasts a variety of programs for kids and teens, catering to all skill levels, as well as endless opportunities for adult guests and team-building activities within groups or meetings.

In short, it’s a game-changer among all-inclusive properties, raising the standard for other resorts and further cementing Hard Rock’s place as the hippest place to stay. Camp Woodward allows guests to participate in a variety of action sports and revolutionary programs.

Expert instructors will be on-site to provide supervision for kids and to guide guests through private or drop-in sessions. Access to Camp Woodward’s diverse offerings will be available to hotel guests with Resort Credit, while non-guests will be invited to participate for a fee.
