Went to Riviera Maya on my honeymoon Theresa. I'd go again in a heartbeat!!!! Beautiful place. We stayed at the Iberostar Tucan resort.
I highly recommend snorkling right off the coast (2nd largest reef in the world!). Take a day trip on the ferry to Cozumel island (30 minutes each way). Also, don't miss an opportunity to go to the coastal ancient ruins of Tulum. We split a day tour, morning to Xel Ha and afternoon at Tulum, it was awesome! Xcaret was overrated we heard so we didn't see that. The other thing I would have liked to see is more of the underground river system "cenotes" and the ruins at Chichen Itza. Bring drops for "Swimmer's Ear" and don't drink the water! I got a nasty ear infection the day before we left, the plane ride was torture!
