The Hyatt Vivid Grand Island is no more. While not everyone has heard of it, the new brand taking over has 12 hotels spanning across 10 different countries. A brand new player has just entered the Cancun market, and they are bringing a completely different, highly curated aesthetic to the hotel zone.

The new Mondrian Cancun All-Inclusive is now accepting reservations for its first ever all inclusive brand. They took over the towering property and are entirely transforming the guest experience from top to bottom.

Who Is The Mondrian?

Do not get confused with the ultra luxury chain of the Mandarin. Mondrian is a lifestyle hotel brand known for striking, art forward design, vibrant social spaces, and locations in major cultural hubs. Up until now, you could only find them in major metropolitan areas or exclusive boutique beach towns. They cater to a demographic that appreciates high end cocktails, live DJs, and guest rooms that look like they belong in a prestigious architectural digest magazine. They have mastered the art of creating spaces that feel hip, exclusive, and undeniably cool. This is not your typical cookie cutter beach resort.

A Massive Historic Milestone

The opening of this specific Cancun property marks a massive historical milestone for the parent company. This is the very first time the Mondrian brand has ever stepped into the limitless vacation space. They are taking their proven formula of high design and elevated social energy and packaging it into a comprehensive all inclusive format. It is a bold move that signals a major shift in what modern tourists actually want when they pay upfront for a luxury beach vacation.

What To Expect On Site

So, what exactly are you getting when you book a room at the new Mondrian Cancun? The sheer scale of the property is incredibly impressive. The massive property features a 400 room footprint, all infused with the signature artistic flair, bold color palettes, and modern comfort the brand is globally known for.

Because this is their flagship entry into the all inclusive market, they have gone incredibly heavy on the culinary and entertainment footprint. The site includes ten restaurants, six bars, three pool areas, and a private beach club. Guests will have unlimited access to distinct restaurant concepts, ensuring you never have to settle for the same repetitive buffet lines day after day. You can expect everything from premium steakhouses to interactive Asian fusion dining, completely removing the stigma of boring resort food. To keep the social energy flowing well into the night, the uniquely designed bars are scattered throughout the pristine grounds. When it is time to soak up the tropical sun, you can choose between three massive pool areas, each meticulously curated to offer a different vibe from high energy day clubs with live music to relaxed, tranquil lounging spaces.

The Geographic Caveat

Before you pull out your credit card and lock in a reservation, there is a very specific logistical caveat you need to understand about this property. Setting proper expectations is the absolute key to a great trip. If your dream vacation involves walking directly out of your ground floor patio and sinking your toes immediately into the ocean, this specific resort is not the right fit for you.

The Mondrian Cancun sits as a high rise property spanning between the lagoon and the sea, offering rooms with views of either the water and lagoon or the surrounding area and golf course rather than immediate beach access. Because of this specific geographic location, the rooms offer incredibly dramatic, elevated views of the sparkling waters, but you will not be stepping directly onto the sand from your suite. The sunset views over the Nichupte Lagoon, however, are absolutely spectacular and offer a visual experience you simply cannot get from standard beachfront properties.

The Beach Club Workaround

Let’s be completely honest: having to take a shuttle to the beach when you are vacationing in Cancun is a compromise. However, the resort has engineered a solid workaround for guests who still want their time on the sand without sacrificing the Mondrian aesthetic.

While the hotel is not directly on the water, your reservation provides access to an exclusive off-site beach area known as the Bungalow Beach Club. This private stretch of shoreline is accessible via a complimentary shuttle service provided by the resort. This dedicated transport runs continuously, driving you from the hotel lobby to the sand in a few minutes.

Is it as convenient as walking out of your ground-floor patio directly into the ocean? Absolutely not. But once you arrive at the Bungalow Beach Club, you get the exact same level of premium hospitality found at the main resort. Attendants are waiting to set up your lounge chairs, deliver fresh towels, and keep the ice-cold drinks flowing while you enjoy the turquoise waters of the Caribbean Sea. It is a trade-off: you sacrifice immediate beach access in exchange for a highly curated, ultra-modern luxury hotel experience that traditional beachfront mega-resorts simply do not offer.

Reservations are now open on its official website.
