On her Instagram account, Rivera posted family photos taken in Dubai and said that this was her family's vacation spot.
Dubai is where she and Filipino actor Dingdong Dantes took their wedding photos in 2015.
She wrote: "Same but different..."
Her family with four members pose for photos with backgrounds of Burj Al Arab, a luxury hotel in Dubai, United Arab Emirates.
Standing on an artificial island that is 280 m from Jumeirah Beach and is connected to the mainland by a private bridge, the hotel is one of the world's tallest. The shape of the structure is designed to resemble the sail of a dhow. It has a helipad near the roof, at 210 m above ground.
Rivera and her husband posed on Desert Safari Dubai that offers a wide range of options, such as off-road adventure seekers like dune buggies and quad bikes with skilled professional guides.
"Making memories that will last a lifetime with my favorite people," Rivera wrote.
