ST. MICHAEL, BARBADOS A— Royalton Hotels & Resorts is building on the momentum of its new Vessence brand with the announcement of Royalton Vessence Cancun, an adults-oriented property set to open in Fall/Winter 2026. 

The new resort follows the strong industry buzz surrounding Royalton Vessence Barbados and continues the brand’s expansion across the Caribbean.

Positioned as a next generation all-inclusive concept, Royalton Vessence offers digital detox spaces, late night swim areas and enriching activities such as cooking classes, wine pairings and cultural immersions. The adults-oriented approach is ideal for families with older teens, couples, groups of friends and travellers seeking a slower, more balanced vacation style.

Located 25 minutes from Cancun International Airport, Royalton Vessence Cancun will feature 376 suites. Half will be Presidential Suites within the Royalton Suites & Villas tier, designed with a main bedroom plus a flexible secondary space equipped with two full-size single DreamBed mattresses in a Murphy bed format. A Presidential Suite can also connect to a Double Junior Suite, offering a guaranteed configuration that sets a new standard for the all-inclusive segment.

“Royalton Vessence Cancun reflects our commitment to creating stays that are locally inspired and artfully designed, inviting guests to experience the true essence of a destination,” said Jordi Pelfort, President of Royalton Hotels and Resorts. “The strong reception of Royalton Vessence Barbados has reinforced the relevance of this new brand, and we are confident that Cancun will elevate it even further.”

The resort will offer eight dining venues, a coffee shop and six bars, including a wine and spirits tasting room that highlights the flavours and rhythms of the Mexican Caribbean. A rooftop restaurant and pool area will serve international cuisine and handcrafted cocktails with panoramic views.

The Studio, a hallmark of the Vessence concept, will provide daily workshops in art, pottery, painting and culinary expression. In the evening, it transforms into a space for intimate live music sessions, creating a setting that blends conversation, creativity, and ambience under the stars.
