Riviera Maya, Mexico – Kimpton has opened its first all-inclusive resort, placing the brand’s distinctive approach inside a 340-acre nature reserve along the Riviera Maya coast. ([1])The Kimpton Tres Ríos property sits between Playa del Carmen and Cancun, developed in partnership with Hotel Equities to offer 355 rooms and suites that emphasize connection to the surrounding landscape.
Rooms Designed for the Setting
Accommodations feature balconies or terraces, with nature-inspired interiors that draw from the local environment. Select categories include plunge pools or soaking tubs, while larger two- and three-bedroom suites provide additional space for families or groups.
The layout encourages guests to move between indoor comfort and outdoor access, supporting a stay that balances relaxation with opportunities to engage the reserve directly.
Activities Within the Reserve
Multiple pools serve different preferences, including a dedicated children’s area, an adults-only option, and a family pool with a water slide. The on-site Tres Ríos nature park offers kayaking, snorkeling, and exploration of cenotes, while the beach provides a quieter alternative for those who prefer time by the water.
A 10,000-square-foot spa adds further options through hydrotherapy circuits, yoga sessions, and treatments that incorporate Mayan-inspired rituals. The resort also maintains a two-story fitness center and a kids club, broadening appeal across age groups.
Dining and Daily Rhythms
Seven restaurants and bars cover a range of cuisines, from Mexican dishes at Sabina and Italian fare at Bacetto to Japanese, Mediterranean, and steakhouse selections. Poolside service at Del Mar and a sports bar called La Campana provide casual spots for drinks and lighter bites throughout the day.
The all-inclusive model simplifies planning while the variety of outlets supports different moods and dietary interests without requiring guests to leave the property.
Practical Considerations for Booking
The resort welcomes pets and maintains the flexible service style long associated with the Kimpton name. Cash rates begin at $427 per night for double occupancy, with IHG One Rewards members able to redeem stays from 35,000 points per night.
This opening reflects a broader shift among established brands toward all-inclusive formats that combine convenience with elevated design and access to natural settings. Travelers interested in the property can review availability directly through IHG channels for the most current details.
