“Mexico City is a city with immense artistic value, serving as the main gateway to the country. Mexico is known for its archaeological remains, including the Pyramid of Teotihuacan, Chichen Itza, and Tulum. Many travelers extend their stay and explore destinations with colonial architecture, such as San Cristóbal de las Casas, Mérida, Morelia, or Oaxaca. The landscapes of Mexico are diverse and offer a range of experiences, from the Biscayan desert to the lakes of Pátzcuaro, the Sierra Madre Occidental, and the Sierra del Cobre. Beaches are another major attraction, with popular destinations like the Riviera Maya, Cancun, Playa del Carmen, and Acapulco, as well as the lesser-known coastline of Baja California, a destination for surfers and whale watchers.”

Hyatt is entering the final months of 2026 with a growing collection of luxury properties across some of Mexico’s most sought-after destinations. From the Pacific coast of Baja California Sur to the Caribbean shoreline of the Riviera Maya and the cultural heart of Mexico City, the company is expanding its portfolio with distinctive properties designed around their individual settings and guest experiences. The Park Hyatt brand is at the center of this growth. Following the opening of Park Hyatt Cabo del Sol in December 2025, Park Hyatt Riviera Maya is expected to open by the end of 2026 as the brand’s first all-inclusive property worldwide. Park Hyatt Mexico City Polanco, a 155-room hotel overlooking Chapultepec Park, is expected to welcome guests in spring 2027. Together, the three properties offer very different ways to experience Mexico, from coastal escapes to an urban cultural stay. Hyatt’s expansion also includes Alila Mayakoba, which opened earlier this year within the Mayakoba complex. Set across 60 acres of beach, lagoon, and jungle, the resort combines wellness, locally inspired design, and a strong connection to the Yucatán Peninsula. Meanwhile, three new Grand Hyatt resorts—Grand Hyatt Grand Cayman, Grand Hyatt Cancun, and Grand Hyatt Los Cabos—are scheduled to open in the fourth quarter of 2026, with Cancún and Los Cabos introducing all-inclusive experiences to the Grand Hyatt portfolio. For planners, this growing portfolio creates even more possibilities for designing programs around different sides of Mexico. Whether a group is looking for a sophisticated urban experience, a secluded Caribbean setting, or the landscapes and culture of Baja, Destination Mexico can help bring these new properties together with the authentic experiences, local connections, and seamless logistics that make a program truly memorable
