Hyatt Hotels has grand plans to open a brand new hotel in Cancún to meet the high demands of tourism in the resort destination. Anticipated to open in 2024 in time for the summer season, the luxury Grand Hyatt Cancún Beach Resort will be built in collaboration with ownership group Diestra Realty, S.A. de C.V.
Situated in the eastern part of the Yucatan Peninsula with expansive views overlooking the Caribbean Sea and nearby Isla Mujeres, Grand Hyatt Cancún Beach Resort will be a captivating destination that will feature 500 guest rooms, of which 28 rooms will feature their own plunge pool and 46 rooms will be luxury suites, including one exclusive Presidential Suite.
The resort will offer a whopping 11 onsite dining concepts that will have world-class chefs at the helm serving iconic dishes reflective of the destination. Six bars are also planned, including a lobby lounge bar, pool bar and beach shack. Other amenities will include an indoor-outdoor destination spa area and fitness center; three swimming pools; a kids club; an activity center; a business center; retail shops; and more than 16,000 square feet of dynamic, state-of-the-art gathering spaces designed to accommodate events of all sizes.
“Cancún is one of the most desired and booming leisure tourism destinations in the world, and we are thrilled to collaborate with the team at Diestra Realty to bring the iconic Grand Hyatt brand to this sought-after destination,” says Camilo Bolaños, Hyatt’s senior vice president of development for Latin America and the Caribbean. “Hyatt’s recent acquisition of Apple Leisure Group and our expanded portfolio of all-inclusive luxury resorts demonstrates our focus on high-end leisure travel. The new Grand Hyatt resort will be a critical piece of our strategy to grow Hyatt’s luxury resort presence in key leisure destinations that our guests, World of Hyatt members, and owners are seeking.”
The resort will be located within Puerto Cancún, a master-planned residential resort community that includes a full-service marina, golf course, resorts, time-share, condominiums, single-family homes, state-of-the-art fitness and recreation center, protected natural reserve, and a lifestyle shopping mall offering an open-air shopping experience with over 220 tenants including fine dining, art galleries and children’s entertainment activities. A newly developed resort cluster will include the new Grand Hyatt Cancún Beach Resort. Strategically located between downtown Cancún and the Cancún Hotel Zone, Puerto Cancún intends to merge dynamic city life with a resort experience and environment, positioning the new Grand Hyatt hotel as an attractive destination for tourists and locals alike.
Grand Hyatt Cancún Beach Resort will join 18 additional Hyatt-branded hotels in Cancún, including all-inclusive luxury resorts across the AMR Collection brands, giving guests and World of Hyatt members even more resort options and leisure experiences to choose from.
