OVERVIEWAMENITIESPOSITIVE IMPACT

A peaceful, high-end escape nestled between mangroves and the Caribbean Sea, just 15 minutes from Cancun International Airport.

Perched along a serene stretch of coastline south of Cancun, Waldorf Astoria Riviera Maya offers an indulgent retreat surrounded by lush mangroves and tranquil ocean views. Though close to the airport, the setting feels worlds away – a luxurious, tropical resort ideal for both short stays and longer beachside getaways. The hotel’s architecture blends contemporary elegance with local inspiration, and warm, attentive service enhances the sense of ease throughout. 

Each of the 173 rooms and suites is ocean-facing, featuring floor-to-ceiling windows, soaking tubs, and private plunge pools – perfect for sunrise coffees or starlit dips. Guests can unwind in the striking infinity pools, explore the secluded white-sand beach, or indulge in elevated Mexican cuisine and seafood at one of the five restaurants and bars. The expansive spa draws on Mayan healing traditions, offering holistic treatments in a deeply serene setting.
