St. Regis Hotels & Resorts has boosted its presence in the Americas with the opening of The St. Regis Kanai Resort, Riviera Maya.
Located adjacent to a 250-hectare nature reserve and UNESCO World Heritage Site – the Sian Ka’an Reserve, the resort is a short drive from both Cancun and Playa Del Carmen and offers a gateway to the wonders of the region, from the luxuriant biodiversity of its natural parks and the mysticism of its cenotes, to the vivid blues of its ocean and the cultural richness of its archaeological sites.

The resort features an exceptional circular exterior design inspired by the constellation Pleiades, resulting in unrivaled ocean views from nearly every vantage point.
Designed with a minimal construction footprint aimed at protecting the natural reserve, The St. Regis Kanai Resort, Riviera Maya is suspended above a mangrove forest with the different elements of the hotel connected by elevated walkways. Guests of the resort are immediately transported into the magic of Kanai with a multi-story open-air water installation leading into the main lobby.
Floor-to-ceiling panoramic views of the mangroves give way to lush gardens and an expansive outdoor lawn with direct access to 3.2 kilometres of undisturbed white sand beach.
The St. Regis Kanai Resort, Riviera Maya boasts 124 guestrooms and 19 suites including a 214 sqm Presidential Suite, each offering ocean views and a private terrace or plunge pool. Guests of all room categories will also have access to the St. Regis Signature Butler Service.
There are eight culinary venues onsite including the hotel’s signature restaurant TORO by Chef Richard Sandoval – a bar and restaurant with a Latin-inspired menu led by the esteemed chef.
The St. Regis Spa features eight treatment suites and a standalone salon. Guests can work out in the exclusive Athletic Club, featuring a range of cardio and strength equipment as well as an outdoor yoga platform. The Beach Club will set a new standard for glamorous seaside lounging while offering access to a selection of water sports, and an incomparable pool and beach experience that includes Adult and Family pools, where vast cabanas offer complete privacy.
