2021 was an important time for Mexico. The hotel world had some exciting openings and rebranding projects, and 2022 will follow similarly with the launch of some standout properties in the Mexican Caribbean. Here’s a list of the best new hotels in Playa del Carmen for 2022.

Etéreo, Auberge Resorts Collection – Riviera Maya

Etéreo opened for the 2021 Christmas season, and the reservations have continued to pour in ever since. A 40-minute drive south of Cancun, the resort looms over a protected mangrove swamp, with each of the 75 properties overlooking the Caribbean Sea. Five restaurants fuse traditional Mayan and modern Mexican cuisine, and the Auberge Spa invites you to relax with healing rituals and body treatments on an outdoor floating massage platform. It really is ethereal, as the name suggests.
