TAO Inspired Living homeowners and guests have the Riviera Maya Golf Course right at their doorstep. It’s an impressive architectural project designed by Robert Trent Jones II. He achieved a synergy between the 27 holes of this extraordinary golf course and the majestic wild Mayan jungle, surrounded by beautiful natural lakes and water holes which, together with a combination of rocks and water, becomes a spectacular environment and make playing golf in the Mayan Riviera a real pleasure. This golf course is considered to be the third best in the country and important tournaments are hosted here.

The golf course features an 80,000 square feet Bahia Principe Clubhouse, set against the seclusion of open space and undeveloped land, partnered with resort-style amenities. An ideal retreat for nature lovers and golf enthusiasts alike.

The jungle in the area of the TAO Center has beautiful flora and fauna. You can hike or bike to see the nature and feel the jungle vibe. If you want to cover more ground you can hit the pavement or sidewalks of the four attached resorts of the Gran Bahia Principe complex and see beautiful sculptures, interesting sights and meet new people. Stop and enjoy the many forms of entertainment offered on the resort free of charge.

TAO Inspired Living is located in the heart of the Riviera Maya, at the north east coast of the Yucatan Peninsula in Mexico, which features an array of attractions ranging from deserted beaches to modern architectural complexes, including hotels, marinas, sports facilities and gourmet restaurants. It has several small towns along its coastline; all of them located no more than 1.5 miles from the wonderful turquoise waters of the Mexican Caribbean. The most important towns in the region are Playa del Carmen, Puerto Aventuras, Tulum and Akumal. At the southern end you’ll find the biosphere reserve, Sian Ka’an, a habitat noted for the richness of its flora and fauna.

The Mayan culture remains present throughout the area, in the many indigenous communities still found here. They strive to preserve their traditions, religion and social structure, although the real splendor of the ancient Mayan civilization is most evident in the numerous archaeological sites of this stunning area, such as Tulum, Cobá, Chichen Itzá, among many others. It is through the pyramids, playing fields, sculpted stone pillars, plazas and temples that some of the mysteries, still surrounding one of Mexico��s most important cultures, have been partially deciphered.
