Hilton announced on 7NOV the opening of Waldorf Astoria Cancun, a 173-room luxury resort located in the Yucatan Peninsula. The resort is offering panoramic ocean views, dining, and wellness offerings. The opening of Waldorf Astoria Cancun marks the 200th hotel in the Caribbean and Latin America for Hilton, as well as the first Waldorf Astoria hotel in the Mexican Caribbean and second in the country, demonstrating Hilton's commitment to growth in the region.
"The opening of the newly built Waldorf Astoria Cancun marks an important milestone for Hilton, as we continue our rapid expansion in Mexico,” said Danny Hughes, executive vice president and president, Americas, Hilton. “Over the past year, we’ve landed in the Yucatan Peninsula in a big way, with six new hotels from Tulum to Cancun and are thrilled to have done so with incredible owners and team members in one of the most sought-after destinations.”
Managed by Hilton and owned by PHH (“Parks Hospitality Holdings”), Waldorf Astoria Cancun is situated on an oceanfront location, 10 miles from CUN. The property is on 100 acres of Mayan coastline 19 miles south of Cancun’s popular Hotel Zone and north of Riviera Maya, behind a mangrove nature preserve.
“We are honored and excited to extend our successful partnership with Hilton with the opening of Waldorf Astoria Cancun. We believe Mexico’s unique combination of people, culture, gastronomy and natural wonders make it the best global destination for tourism,” said Charles El Mann Fasja, developer of Waldorf Astoria Cancun and Parks Hospitality Holdings CEO. “We are committed to developing hotels of the future while also sourcing locally, building sustainably and honoring our country's craftsmanship, which is what truly sets us apart.”
Textured glass, inlaid pearl shell accents, metal trim, cove lighting, and illuminated crystal are among the details of the hotel's structures, while the 173 rooms and suites feature private balconies with soaking tubs and ocean views.
