Lagoon-Front Bliss: Authentic Mexican Fusion Seafood for World-Class MICE Events


Navíos Restaurant offers MICE planners a refreshingly authentic and charming venue, specializing in Mexican Fusion Seafood Cuisine. Located on a private pier over the Nichupté Lagoon, Navíos provides an extraordinary setting that is both casual and elegantly tropical, making it an ideal choice for group welcome dinners, relaxed corporate lunches, or incentive gatherings seeking a true taste of Mexican coastal dining with a spectacular sunset backdrop.


Kind of Venue and Premises


Navíos is a unique, open-air, Mexican Fusion Seafood Restaurant situated in a tranquil, virtually undeveloped part of the Cancun Hotel Zone.

Concept: The venue's name and concept are inspired by navíos (vessels), historic sailing ships that transported the finest fruits and delicacies of the sea, emphasizing the restaurant's focus on rich and wide-ranging Mexican seafood.
Cuisine: The culinary proposal is characterized by its Mexican Fusion Seafood, featuring creative dishes made with local and regional ingredients. The menu offers a delicious range of ceviches, fish, and seafood preparations, alongside Mexican classics like Lime Soup and other fusion plates.
Atmosphere and Setting: The ambiance is casual, pleasant, and deeply tropical. The defining feature is its location entirely on a dock over the lagoon, offering a perfect setting to enjoy the beautiful Caribbean sunset. The venue is open-air, often features live music (Thursdays & Fridays), and is illuminated by candlelight after dark, creating a very romantic and memorable environment.

Event Space and Facilities for Groups

Navíos is perfectly suited for medium-sized groups and MICE programs looking for an unforgettable, characteristic Mexican experience that goes beyond the standard hotel ballroom.

Group Specialization: Navíos actively caters to groups and events, with a specific minimum reservation requirement of 20 persons onwards. They offer specialized services and attention for group guests.
Exclusive Dining Spaces: The venue’s architecture is ideal for segmentation:

Palapa Terrace: The main dining area is covered by a traditional palapa roof, located right on the water.
Private Huts: The pier features four private 'huts' (palapa tables) situated over the water, which provide an incredibly unique, intimate, and exclusive dining experience for smaller VIP groups or executive dinners.
Customization: They offer several dedicated group menu options that include a welcome drink (such as a Tamarind Margarita), soups, salads, and a variety of seafood or meat main courses, allowing for easy pre-selection for event planners.
Amenities: The location is easily accessible in the Hotel Zone (Km 19.5), offers on-site parking and valet parking, and provides outdoor seating.
