In late 2023, Hyatt and Parks Hospitality Holdings announced a collaboration that will expand Hyatt’s footprint in Mexico with the development of four new properties. The most notable of these is the new Park Hyatt Riviera Maya, which will also be the brand’s first all-inclusive property. The hotel has just become bookable for stays as of early 2027.
Basics of the New All-Inclusive Park Hyatt in Cancun, Mexico
The Park Hyatt Riviera Maya, located in Cancun, Mexico, is now accepting reservations for stays as of February 15, 2027. The hotel was initially supposed to open in 2025, then the timeline was pushed back to 2026, and now to 2027. Hopefully the current opening date sticks, but if you book in the first several months the hotel is open, don’t be surprised if we see an additional delay.
The 148-key property will have a first-ever concept for the Park Hyatt brand, as it will be all-inclusive. Admittedly this is pretty normal for the Cancun area, but still, it’s noteworthy for a brand like Park Hyatt. Hyatt has been leaning heavily into the all-inclusive space in recent times, particularly through acquisitions. So while Hyatt has grown massively in terms of its number of all-inclusive brands, it’s surprising to see even a traditionally non-all-inclusive brand get this kind of an experience.
While all the exact details of dining options haven’t yet been announced, the expectation is that the resort will have a Beach Club Grill (with seafood and Yucatecan flavors), an all-day dining restaurant, a steakhouse specialty restaurant, a pool bar, and a patisserie.
Accommodations will range in size from 559 square feet (52 square meters) to 2,303 square feet (214 square meters), so they’re generously sized, as you’d expect.
The resort will also have several pools, a full-service spa, a gym, and more.
Once open, this adds to a growing number of luxury points hotels in the Cancun area. Just recently we saw the opening of the St. Regis Kanai and Waldorf Astoria Cancun, so it’s nice to see Hyatt’s most luxurious brand also expand to the area. The Park Hyatt will be immediately next to the Waldorf Astoria.
The Park Hyatt brand is growing quickly in Mexico. We’ve seen the recent opening of the Park Hyatt Los Cabos at Cabo Del Sol, while the Park Hyatt Mexico City is expected to open in early 2027. Beyond that, the Alila Mayakoba recently opened as another strong luxury option in the Cancun area.
Park Hyatt Riviera Maya All-Inclusive Rates & Points Requirements
With the Park Hyatt Riviera Maya now bookable, what are rates like? If paying cash, rooms generally start at around $1,500 per night, including taxes and fees. So it’s obviously very expensive, but given Mexico’s high taxes and fees, it’s not quite as steep as some may have expected.
Oddly, at least as of now, rates appear to be the same whether one or two people are staying, which is unusual for an all-inclusive.
For cash bookings, it’s worth considering the Hyatt Privé program, which offers extra perks like room upgrades, a hotel credit, and more.
When redeeming points, the hotel follows World of Hyatt’s Category F all-inclusive award chart, which is the most expensive award pricing for all-inclusive properties. Under Hyatt’s current award chart, the cost is typically 45,000 to 85,000 points per night for the first guest, and then 22,500 to 42,500 points for the second guest — totaling 77,500 to 127,500 points per night.
Currently, points pricing also appears to be the same regardless of whether one or two guests are staying, which could represent a short-term opportunity for couples looking to get more value from a redemption.
Bottom Line
The Park Hyatt Riviera Maya is now bookable for stays beginning February 15, 2027, marking the first all-inclusive property in the Park Hyatt brand’s history. Cash rates start at around $1,500 per night including taxes and fees, while points redemptions fall under the Category F all-inclusive award chart at 77,500 to 127,500 points per night. Given the property’s history of delays, travelers booking early should keep that in mind — but for those set on a luxury all-inclusive in the Cancun area bookable with World of Hyatt points, this will be one to watch.
