Anticipated to open in 2027, The Ritz-Carlton, Cancun, Punta Nizuc, will feature a world-class oceanfront resort and ultra-luxury residential condominiums, developed through an unprecedented collaboration between three of Mexico’s most experienced real estate developers.
CANCUN, Mexico – Marriott International, Inc. has announced an agreement with FibraHotel, Fibra Danhos, and Beyond Ventures to bring The Ritz-Carlton back to the Cancun region for the first time since 2022. The property is slated to include a 131-key luxury hotel, developed and owned through a joint venture between FibraHotel and Fibra Danhos, along with 126 branded residences in a LEED certified building, developed by Beyond Ventures, setting a new standard of design and sophistication in the region.
“Marriott is thrilled to bring The Ritz-Carlton brand back to Cancun, as we continue aiming to meet the growing demand for luxury travel experiences and world-class branded residences… As one of the most important tourist destinations in Mexico and Latin America, Cancun and the Riviera Maya attract nearly 30 million visitors each year, drawn by stunning beaches, vibrant nightlife, and rich cultural experiences. While this property is conveniently located 10 minutes from the airport, it feels a world away. Punta Nizuc offers an unmatched gateway to the beauty of the Riviera Maya. Cancun’s unique blend of natural beauty, modern amenities, and a diverse range of activities—from exploring ancient Mayan ruins to enjoying world-class dining—make it a truly extraordinary destination for travelers seeking both adventure and relaxation.” – Brian King, President of Caribbean & Latin America (CALA) for Marriott International.
In a joint statement, the development partners shared: “We are extremely proud to announce this joint venture between FibraHotel, Fibra Danhos, and Beyond Ventures. Together, we are shaping the future of luxury hospitality and residential experiences in Cancun. Our investment is a testament to Cancun’s growing potential, introducing visitors and residents to the vibrant culture, natural beauty, and renowned hospitality that Mexico has to offer. Whether for a vacation or as a second home, The Ritz-Carlton, Cancun, Punta Nizuc will redefine luxury living and hospitality in the region.”
Set to welcome guests and residents in 2027, The Ritz-Carlton, Cancun, Punta Nizuc will offer all the pleasures of one of the world’s most coveted beach destinations, set on an exclusive peninsula that boasts over a private shoreline. Guests will enjoy unparalleled ocean views and access to world-class amenities.
The project’s design will be led by the acclaimed architectural firms Lissoni & Partners and Cherem Arquitectos. It will include exceptional services and amenities, such as a sprawling oceanfront pool complex, a destination spa, six gourmet restaurants, and exclusive residential amenities, all serviced by The Ritz-Carlton.
