Tables We Love, part VII

Like the Mayans before you, the Haab' at Banyan Tree Mayakoba gives you a deep-in-the-jungle mystical experience featuring the four sacred elements of water, earth, wind and fire. We're not sure if the ancient Mayans had a killer tequila bar with dedicated bartender at their whim (see the bar on the left), but either way, you and 17 of your besties could have quite a night here.

El Nido & Origen at Mar Adentro

The newly opened, futuristic-looking Mar Adentro (Spanish for 'The Sea Inside') 5-star hotel, located in Baja California Sur, has not one but two incredible tables we love.

The first, their romantic sushi restaurant El Nido ('The Nest'), makes the biggest design statement. Sheltered under an eye-catching upside-down nest (made of actual twigs!) it appears to drift on a pool of water.

As for the hotel's main restaurant, Origen, its setting is no less impressive to El Nido's. Guests can enjoy alfresco dining within the hyper-modern all-white aesthetic of the hotel, while looking out at the contrasting blue of the Pacific Ocean.

Table for two please!
