A sense of the place
Why it's in the collection
Because the bones are the old Ritz-Carlton Cancún's – Kempinski took the house over in 2022 and kept the Club Grill and the cooking school – and the hotel and its spa hold four-star standing, listed at exactly that tier.
- On the Hotel Zone beach in Cancún.
- Opened as The Ritz-Carlton Cancún and rebranded Kempinski Hotel Cancún in 2022.
- The Club Grill and a cooking school on the property.
- The hotel and its spa hold four-star standing in 2026.
