Rosewood Mayakoba to Host Rosewood Miramar Beach’s Michelin-Starred Caruso’s

Riviera Maya, Mexico – Rosewood Mayakoba Following a successful Rosewood Mayakoba summer residency at Rosewood Miramar Beach, the luxury properties will reverse roles this winter, bringing a taste of Coastal Californian and Italian flavors to the Yucatán Peninsula. Newly minted from California’s 2022 MICHELIN Guide rankings, Caruso’s features a coveted one-star rating as well as a Green Star designation for the team’s sustainable efforts, and will be available at Rosewood Mayakoba beginning December 13, 2022.

Caruso’s will take residence at Casa del Lago, Rosewood Mayakoba’s sophisticated lagoon-side destination, through Spring 2023. The wintertime collaboration offers an inspired menu showcasing Rosewood Miramar Beach’s Culinary Director Massimo Falsini’s Southern Italian heritage and California sensibility through a Mexican lens. This will include a range of specialty dishes, a selection of Central Coast wines, and Caruso’s classic cocktails.

Chef Massimo and Rosewood Mayakoba’s Culinary Director Juan Pablo Loza share a passion for sustainability, which earned both properties esteemed accolades including Caruso’s Michelin Green Star and placement on the James Beard Foundation’s Smart Catch list; Rosewood Mayakoba’s recognition as a Come Pesca ambassador; and both resorts’ certification on the Monterey Bay Aquarium’s Seafood Watch Program. In this spirit, the partnership will incorporate the highest quality Yucatán ingredients, including locally sourced seafood and produce. Menu highlights include but are not limited to:

Riviera Tomato Gazpacho: sourdough croutons, agrumato

Hand Pulled Burrata & Prosciutto Di Parma: arugula, balsamic vinaigrette, pane di casa

Spaghettoni Cacio e Pepe: sarawak peppercorn, pecorino romano

Seared Red Snapper: Oaxaca heirloom corn maque choux, corn nage

“We’re thrilled to continue this Riviera-to-Riviera partnership and welcome our award-winning colleagues from Rosewood Miramar Beach to our casa Mexicana at Rosewood Mayakoba,” “It’s been incredible to work with Chef Massimo and create a truly memorable and delicious experience for our guests, offering a taste of Caruso’s fine dining Italian sprinkled with local ingredients for a collaboration unlike anything else in Mexico.”

Chef Juan Pablo Loza

“I am excited to bring Caruso’s Californian and Southern Italian flavors to guests at Rosewood Mayakoba and to share the kitchen once again with Chef Juan Pablo and his talented team,” “Rosewood Mayakoba and Rosewood Miramar Beach are oceanside destinations and we each take our culinary cues from the sea’s bounty. My team and I are eager to work with the rich, abundant ingredients available in the Yucatán Peninsula to reinterpret some of Caruso’s classics in addition to creating new bespoke dishes.”
