The JW Marriott Cancun has completed a multimillion-dollar renovation project.
The renovation included what the property called an “extensive transformation” of all 447 guestrooms and suites.
“We are excited to introduce JW Marriott Cancun Resort and Spa’s reimagined look to our guests, offering them an enriching and luxurious experience from the moment they check in,” said Mitzi Gaskins, Vice President & Global Brand Leader of JW Marriott. “Situated on the pristine beaches of the Caribbean, the hotel incorporates elements that reflect the calming vibe of the destination allowing guests to feel at ease and at home in the bright and spacious new guestrooms.”
The interiors were re-envisioned by Martha Gaos and Claudia Gonzalez of G+G Interiorismo, with furnishings that incorporate traditional Mayan designs.
“The JW Marriott Cancun sits within one of the most beautiful destinations in the Mexican Caribbean, and our new room interiors complement the natural beauty our guests have grown to know and love,” said General Manager and Vice President Christopher Calabrese. “The detail is truly impeccable, and the elevated design, paired with authentic touches like the Mayan cross-stitching, pays homage to Cancun’s history and culture. Opening our guests up to the world around them is one of the most authentic travel experiences they can have.”

That will mean “high-end details, plush amenities and lavish vacation experiences,” the company said.
“The introduction of The Estates represents our continued commitment to transforming the hospitality industry and cementing Mexico’s position as the world’s premier tourist destinations,” said Ivan Chavez, executive vice president of Grupo Vidanta. “The Estates are bold and innovative, revolutionizing the concept of luxury and will go above and beyond in style, personalization, comfort and service, even for the most discerning traveler.”
The properties will be set in nature-filled settings at both resorts, with layouts including one, two and four-bedroom configurations with indoor-outdoor designs.
That will include “spa-inspired bathrooms” and, perhaps most importantly, private outdoor pool and lounge areas.
The Estates will also offer access to amenities like the Norman Signature Golf Course, Almaverde farm, and Santuario entertainment plaza at Vidanta Nuevo Vallarta, the Cirque du Soleil show, JOYÀ, The Beach Club, and Salum Beachside Eateries and Market at Vidanta Riviera Maya.
The company said model units would be available for tours later this year.
It did not give a projected completion date for the project.
