st. regis Kanai Resort
Sited on a 620-acre nature reserve with two miles of pristine white-sand beaches, The Riviera Maya EDITION at Kanai rises up from a forest of mangroves to introduce a completely new concept of sustainable luxury to the Caribbean coastline. Featuring 182 guest rooms and suites, a lagoon-sized pool, versatile meeting spaces, a state-of-the-art ballroom, and North America’s largest penthouse suite, Mexico’s first EDITION marries its signature brand of hospitality with the Yucatan Peninsula’s modern and ancient cultures.
A destination in and of itself, The Riviera Maya EDITION brings two of Mexico’s most renowned chef-restauranteurs to Kanai through five food and beverage venues including an innovative tasting menu by Chef Paco Ruano and a Mediterranean-inspired beach club by Chef Tomas Bermudez. Complete the holistic experience through a cenote-inspired destination spa to live in harmony with the surroundings of The Riviera Maya EDITION.
Designed with a minimal environmental footprint to protect and preserve Kanai’s ecosystem, the ancient Mayan land delivers nothing short of its name, meaning “Paradise on Earth”.

Frequently Asked Questions

Travel to Mexico requires valid passports, even for US Citizens. Please ensure that your passport expires more than 6 months from the date of entry into Mexico. Mexico has no visa requirement for US Citizens, but you will be asked to fill out a FMM form (Mexico's visitor permit) on the plane or once you land. Once you get to immigration and customs, the agents will give you the bottom half to retain until you leave the country. It is VERY important to keep this secure until you leave Mexico.
