Riviera Maya, Mexico
Waldorf Astoria Riviera Maya
Polished and peaceful, with sea-view rooms, a long quiet beach and a fine spa.
About the hotel
Opened in 2022 just south of Cancún, near Puerto Morelos, Waldorf Astoria Riviera Maya has 173 rooms set back from a long, quiet beach. It is polished, calm and intimate for a hotel of its standing. From 10 January 2027 it becomes all inclusive and adults-only (18 and over), so it will suit couples, honeymooners and friends looking for a peaceful, grown-up escape with very little to organise.
Rooms are elegant and roomy, most facing the sea, and some suites have their own plunge pool. Two infinity pools look out over the beach, and the spa draws on Mayan healing traditions. The new all-inclusive stay takes in the restaurants, 24-hour in-room dining, the minibar and a personal concierge, with yoga by the sea, cooking and cocktail classes and live music to fill the days.
