The Resort tells the story of a couple, Noah and Emma, celebrating their 10th anniversary on a trip in the Mayan Riviera.

There, Emma realizes that she’s not connecting well with her husband and fears that her marriage isn’t advancing while Noah remains content in their relationship, much to the chagrin of Emma. While vacationing, the couple become entangled in the disappearance of two people on the island that happened fifteen years ago.
