The British multinational hospitality company IHG Hotels & Resorts recently announced through a press release a new luxury resort in the Riviera Maya, Mexico. The company recently acquired a property that will open its doors in early 2024 and will be part of the urban boutique brand Kimpton Hotels & Restaurants. It will become their first all-inclusive resort in the country.
The Kimpton Hacienda Tres Ríos Resort, Spa & Nature Park opened originally in 2008 and will now be renovated and refreshed—along with the resort’s owner, Sunset World, and operator, Playa Hotels & Resorts— to adapt to the brand’s standards and concepts.
Mike DeFrino, Kimpton CEO, said: “This development is a testament to Kimpton’s continued growth and broad resonance.” DeFrino added: “We couldn’t have found better partners than Sunset World and Playa Hotels & Resorts to bring our first all-inclusive resort to life, and believe our special brand of boutique hospitality will translate perfectly in this renowned part of Mexico.”
The environmentally conscious resort will have an interior renovation of its 255 rooms, suites, and villas. Its name is related to the three rivers that cross the Tres Ríos Nature Park’s 326 acres, also part of the resort experience.
Travelers visiting the new Riviera Maya resort will be able to enjoy the fascinating architecture, the private beach, the five pools, the culinary experiences, and other amenities, and also truly connect with local nature since they will also be able to visit the 10 nearby cenotes, and even discover animals and plants species at the tropical forest.
