The best all-inclusive resorts in Cancun

For uninterrupted Caribbean views, it’s hard to beat Secrets The Vine. Situated in a soaring tower in the heart of the Hotel Zone, this contemporary all-inclusive resort in Cancun is a design-forward option for fashionable gents. We love the 12th-floor infinity pool, a sleek, chandelier-adorned space that’s reserved for preferred guests. Every room features an oceanview balcony, Italian porcelain floors, teak wood furnishings, and complimentary mini-bar. An array of activities—from golfing to turtle release programs to yoga—keeps even the most active of travellers entertained. This resort is considered one of the best all inclusives Cancun.

The first couples-only all-inclusive in Cancun, Sun Palace continues to wow from its picturesque location at the south end of the Nichupte Lagoon. Hospitality is what sets Sun Palace apart; guests continually rave about the first-rate service and home-away-from-home vibes, in large part made possible by the resort’s smaller size. In fact, the whole place invokes laid-back charm, whether from one of the lounger-lined infinity pools or any of the four critically-acclaimed restaurants. And though Sun Palace has long been one of Cancun’s most beloved hotels, a recent renovation gave a fresh facelift to the resort—guaranteed to win over even the most discerning of travellers.

Surrounded on three sides by sparkling aquamarine water, Turquoize Hyatt Ziva (tucked away within the all-ages Hyatt Ziva) is one of Cancun’s most posh adults-only resorts. Floor-to-ceiling windows define the space and smartly take full advantage of the premier peninsula location. Everything here feels upgraded, from the in-room tablets to the private hot tubs to the semi-private infinity pool and balcony (available in the Oceanfront Master Suites.) Like Le Blanc, specially-trained butlers are on-call to meet your every need. Don’t miss the private Punta Vista rooftop bar, a sublime spot to sip bubbly and soak in the warm tropical breeze.
