Marriott International will debut its first all-inclusive Marriott property on the site of the former Marriott Cancun Resort, which closed its doors last March to undergo an extensive renovation for conversion. The award-winning hotel now renamed Marriott Cancun, An All-Inclusive Resort, has been Marriott International's legacy property in the Yucatan Peninsula for several decades, gracing its expansive shoreline with elevated oceanfront accommodations, top-tier amenities, and access to the most precious experiences in Cancun.
“Travellers should be relieved to find that they won't be saying goodbye permanently to their beloved Marriott Cancun Resort, but will instead look forward to a very exciting reopening with a more modern product, as Marriott is reimagining the property and using the space to offer a sophisticated spin on the traditional all-inclusive concept. mentioned Alex Fiz, Area Vice President of the Caribbean and General Manager of All-Inclusive for Marriott International. “Cancun is one of the most exclusive tourist destinations in the world, an ideal choice for the first all-inclusive hotel of the Marriott brand and a future renovated vacation center for its repeat guests and our Marriott Bonvoy members who seek a memorable stay and in a hotel with a convenient all-inclusive format."
With the growing interest in all-inclusive properties, travelers are more likely than ever to book single-price vacations, with hassle-free trip planning and a friendly booking and budgeting process. Marriott International's presence in the all-inclusive segment has grown substantially in the last 4 years and today its All-Inclusive by Marriott Bonvoy portfolio is made up of 31 unparalleled resorts and a range of 9 brands that seek to provide more enriching experiences to its most of 180 million Marriott Bonvoy Members, a large number of whom have expressed interest in taking an all-inclusive vacation. The resort once renovated will redefine what it means to be an 'all inclusive', not only in terms of services offered,
“It's wonderful to be at the forefront and be a part of such an innovative milestone,” said Christopher Calabrese, general manager and vice president of Marriott Cancun, An All-Inclusive Resort and JW Marriott Cancun Resort & Spa. “During my long tenure with the Marriott brand, I have maintained that we can only grow in partnership with our valued guests, consistently meeting their needs and desires. Being the first all-inclusive property of the Marriott brand, not only in Mexico, but in the world, is a true testament to the dedication of our associates, who are the heart and soul of our operation here; and of course our guests, who continue to visit us year after year. We can't wait to welcome everyone back next year."
Expanding on the all-inclusive promise, Marriott Cancun, An All-Inclusive Resort will relaunch all rooms, suites, lobby, meeting spaces and public areas with a major redesign, including innovative new dining concepts, expansive pools and even a lazy river and a water park. In keeping with Marriott Hotels' commitment to providing exclusive and enriching experiences, the premium all-inclusive property will provide future guests with elevated food and beverage options, a state-of-the-art fitness center, authentic daytime and evening entertainment, and hospitality representatives who will offer a dedicated and friendly service to guests, which is hallmark of the brand, as well as a wide variety of refined facilities under the all-inclusive framework. The resort, which began renovations in March 2023, is expected to welcome guests again in early 2024 as a premium all-inclusive resort. Meanwhile, for those wishing to visit a Marriott property in Cancun, sister resort JW Marriott Cancun Resort & Spa is open and fully operational, offering luxurious accommodations, unparalleled amenities and unlimited access to the magical coastline of the Mexican Caribbean.
