Hey Cancun fans! Planning your next trip to that slice of Caribbean heaven? Well, hold onto your beach hats, because some familiar faces on the hotel scene are getting some seriously cool upgrades and changes in 2025. Forget settling for the same-old, same-old (even though Cancun’s “same-old” is pretty amazing!). These established resorts are investing big to make your stay even more memorable.
Think refreshed rooms, exciting new features, and even complete transformations. If you’ve got a favorite Cancun spot, it might be getting polished up just for you! Let’s check out which hotels are rolling out the upgrades.
Hotel Xcaret México: Expanding the Fun (Summer 2025)
This place is already epic with its eco-integrated design and access to Xcaret parks, but they’re taking it to another level! Starting Summer 2025, Hotel Xcaret México is unveiling a massive expansion focused on family fun. They’re adding five brand-new “Casas” – think dedicated buildings packed with comfy family suites, exciting pools (hello, new waterslides!), and awesome entertainment zones designed specifically for kids, teenagers, and adults.
But wait, there’s more! Foodies, rejoice! They’re adding nine new restaurants, bumping their total culinary experiences to over 20. Plus, expect new bars to grab a tropical cocktail. It’s a huge upgrade, adding brand-new sparkle to this beloved resort without losing its unique jungle-meets-luxury charm.
Paradisus Cancún: Gearing Up for a Glow-Up (Closing June 2025)
Big news for Paradisus lovers! This iconic pyramid-style resort is scheduled to close its doors temporarily starting in June 2025. Why? For a massive, multi-million dollar renovation! They’re planning a top-to-bottom overhaul, aiming to completely remodel its 800 rooms, revamp the dining scene, and enhance the overall guest experience.
While you won’t be able to check in during the renovation (expected to last until early 2027), it’s exciting to know this Cancun staple is investing heavily to come back better than ever. Keep this one on your radar for future trips!
Sandos Cancun: Chic New Vibe for Adults (January 2025)
Sandos Cancun is making a stylish switcheroo! As of January 2025, the resort has officially transformed into an adults-only escape. This isn’t just a policy change; it comes with a whole new vibe. Expect revamped food and drink menus tailored to a grown-up palate and fresh entertainment options like cool theme parties and live DJs.
If you’re looking for a sophisticated, kid-free zone at a familiar location, the newly reimagined Sandos Cancun might be your perfect match this year.
Freshly Buffed & Ready for 2025
While the above are the big renovation stories happening in 2025, don’t forget a couple of others are sporting recent makeovers that still feel brand new:
Marriott Cancun, An All-Inclusive Resort: This property (you might remember it as CasaMagna) reopened in spring 2024 after a massive renovation and switched to being fully all-inclusive. It boasts fresh features like a waterpark and an updated kids’ club, feeling very current for 2025 stays.
Club Med Cancun: Just wrapped up major renovations around the start of the year. Visitors in 2025 get to enjoy the new Sports & Wellness Island, a refreshed Family Oasis area, and updated kids’ clubs.
So, even if you’re returning to a favorite Cancun hotel, you might find some exciting new surprises waiting for you thanks to these fantastic upgrades. It shows these resorts are dedicated to keeping things fresh, fun, and fabulous for their guests. Happy travels!
