Tradewinds

Tradewinds gave me unforgettable experiences for both breakfast and dinner mealtimes. Everything from the service, the atmosphere, each course, and especially the beach view was perfect.

Feel free to skip to the paragraph labeled "DINNER" for the dining experience :)

BREAKFAST My first experience here was for breakfast. We were quickly served our drinks (the green juice in particular was so refreshing) and offered a variety of gorgeous breads. My party and I all ordered a fruit plate, which I was not expecting to be so stunning. It really is true that we eat with our eyes first because those fruits were so beautifully presented that I was scared to dig in. The mango and papaya were perfectly ripe, juicy, and sweet. As for our main items, they were just as phenomenal. My egg omelet was fresh, tasty, and the avocado toast and smoked salmon bagel were delicious. I could taste the high quality of each ingredient and how each item was freshly made. I knew after this meal that I had to come back for more.

DINNER We decided to eat at Tradewinds for our last dinner at Hyatt Ziva Cancún, and this was truly the best choice. The night atmosphere significantly differed from the morning feel of the restaurant. We were seated to a calm, candle-lit table. Our two servers were very kind and ensured that there was no cross-contamination with my seafood allergy. Now the food. Where do I begin? We were served fluffy dinner rolls as table bread with spreadable roasted garlic and three flavored butters: rosemary, truffle, and pepper. This alone was phenomenal. I wasn't done obsessing over the rolls when they served the soups. We had ordered the bone broth soup and lobster cream soup. These were incredible with the bread rolls. Next came our appetizers which were a mixed salad, crab fritters, and a beef empanada. Not sure if this is just my love for goat cheese and honey mustard speaking, but that salad was absurdly delicious. To that end, the beef empanada was (I kid you not) the best beef empanada I ever had. It was steaming from my first bite and was so flavorful and juicy I had to literally close my eyes and savor the moment. I ended up ordering a second beef empanada appetizer. Lastly, our main courses arrived. I had the skirt steak with a side of roasted vegetables. The steak was juicy, tasty and served with a roasted Mexican spring onion. Everything was perfect, and we did not need to worry about dressing fancy to have a comfortable fine dining experience.

Overall, Tradewinds has set my standards high for all fine dining restaurants. It is a high quality restaurant, perfect for breakfast and dinner. When staying at Hyatt Ziva Cancún, do yourself a favor and have both mealtimes here....

This is hands-down my favorite restaurant in Hyatt Ziva Cancun! Food quality and service were the best in the hotel. I particularly loved their open breakfast bar with fruit, salads, and yogurt. The omelet, special juices, salmon avocado toast, and TW chicken and waffles sandwich were my favorite. Pedro, our breakfast server both times we went to Tradewinds, is extremely friendly, welcoming, and attentive. The manager, Ney does a great job managing the staff and greeted seated guests during their meal if there’s anything they can help us with. Shout out to Samantha, Eric, and Felipe, who were other courteous staff members that made our meal welcoming and memorable.

We also came back for dinner and tried the ribeye, skirt steak, and a bunch of appetizers. Most notably, their bread with roasted garlic and butter 3 ways is so fluffy and hot from the oven. The skirt steak was cooked really well and the rib eye was flavorful but a little more well done than what I...

An absolutely AMAZING dinner experience at Tradewinds, Hyatt Ziva Cancun (10/30)!

From start to finish, the service was flawless and truly memorable. Eleazar Ortiz went above and beyond to make our evening special — he was incredibly attentive, professional, and genuinely caring. Every detail was handled with such grace and sincerity that it made us feel valued and appreciated throughout the entire meal.

A huge compliment as well to his manager, Alejandra Verduzco, whose leadership and passion for guest satisfaction clearly shine through in every aspect of the restaurant’s service. She sets a wonderful example for her team and ensures that every guest enjoys an exceptional dining experience.

Their teamwork, hospitality, and dedication turned an ordinary dinner into a night we’ll never forget. As a Hyatt Globalist, I’ve experienced many top-tier restaurants, but this was truly one of the finest and most heartfelt services I’ve...
