CANCÚN, Mexico, Nov. 02, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Amàre Cancún Adults Only All-Inclusive Resort, Curio by Hilton has opened, bringing the Amàre brand’s signature Mediterranean lifestyle to the Mexican Caribbean and the Americas for the first time. The 429-suite beachfront resort makes its debut in Cancún’s Hotel Zone, combining Amàre’s design-forward, culture-led approach with Hilton’s renowned hospitality and the ease of an all-inclusive stay. The resort is owned and operated by Fuerte Group, and is the family-owned Spanish hotel group’s first hotel outside Spain, the brand’s first all-inclusive and the first Curio Collection by Hilton property in Cancún.
For a decade, Amàre has built a devoted following in Marbella, Ibiza and Sancti Petri around one idea: the Mediterranean is not just a sea; it's a lifestyle. Amàre Cancún carries that DNA across the Atlantic to a rare stretch of the Caribbean, a protected bay where natural currents help preserve the beach and keep the water calm, clear and largely sargassum-free for most of the year.
Set at Km 4.5 on Boulevard Kukulcán, the northern gateway to the Hotel Zone, the resort is minutes from the Isla Mujeres ferries, golf and Cancún's dining and nightlife, and about 30 minutes from Cancún International Airport, with nonstop flights from major U.S. hubs including New York, Dallas and Miami. The resort also takes a distinctive approach to the all-inclusive experience, with expert curators shaping details from the cocktails on the menu to the art lining the hallways.
“Amàre Cancún marks an exciting new chapter for Amàre and an opportunity to bring our approach to hospitality to Mexico through the lens of the unique energy and culture of Cancún,” said Santiago Gonzalez, general manager, Amàre Cancún Adults Only All-Inclusive Resort, Curio by Hilton. “We want our guests to experience a resort that feels social yet unhurried, where gastronomy, wellness, music and meaningful moments come together naturally throughout the day.”
“As we continue to grow Hilton’s All-Inclusive portfolio, from family-friendly resorts to adults-only experiences, and from lifestyle to luxury, Amàre Cancún Adults Only All-Inclusive Resort, Curio by Hilton brings a distinctive adults-only experience rooted in Mediterranean culture, design and a true passion for hospitality to Cancún,” said Sylvia Scholey, vice president and global head, All-Inclusive and Resorts, Hilton. “With its exceptional beachfront setting, diverse chef-led dining, spa and fitness services and curated music from sunrise to sunset, the resort reflects how Hilton continues to reimagine the all-inclusive experience for today’s modern travelers. Through our partnership with Fuerte Group and Amàre Hotels, guests can enjoy an unforgettable stay backed by Hilton’s world-class service and the benefits of Hilton Honors.”
Curated by Name
As at every Amàre property, each guest touchpoint (gastronomy, mixology, music, wellness and art) is designed by a dedicated curator:
- Gastronomy: Two acclaimed chefs lead the culinary program. Award-winning Chef Mauricio Giovanini, Michelin-starred at Restaurante Messina in Marbella, gives HAYACA its first permanent home in the Americas. Born as a summer pop-up at Amàre Marbella and Amàre Ibiza, the Latin American and Mediterranean fusion concept reinterprets the flavors of Mexico, Peru, Argentina, and Brazil. Chef Jordi Cantó, who holds a Michelin star and a Repsol Sun at Sa Clastra, created the concepts for VITA and BLANC and designed the exclusive menu at LA CAVA, the resort’s signature culinary space.
- Mexican Cuisine: Curator and Mexican cuisine expert Paloma Ortiz guides the resort’s Mexican culinary program, grounding the experience in the flavors and traditions of the destination.
- Drinks: Salmon Guru co-founder Diego Cabrera, a World's 50 Best Bars honoree, leads the cocktail program. Mezcal World Ambassador Elisa Villarreal leads an on-site mezcal and tequila program, and fifth-generation sommelier Meritxell Falgueras curates the wine list and the sunset and dinner tastings.
- Coffee: Spanish Barista Champion Adrián Fernández designs the menu at RITUAL, the lobby coffee house.
- Music: Ibiza-born DJ, producer and music curator Anna Tur leads Amàre Music. From her roots as a resident DJ in Ibiza to an established international career, she has performed at some of the world’s leading clubs and electronic music festivals. Resident DJs shape the day, from ambient sets at breakfast and deep house by the pool to sunset sets on the rooftops and live and DJ programming after dark.
- Amàre Art: Contemporary artists across a range of disciplines rotate through the lobby, restaurants and tower hallways. A new collection arrives each cycle, so returning guests never see the same resort twice.
Dining, Wellness and The One
- Seven restaurants: Beyond HAYACA, the lineup includes VITA, an Italian table; BLANC, a French brasserie; SAORI, a Japanese rooftop restaurant on the 29th level, where the sushi bar is led by Carlos Navarro, a top-five finisher at the World Sushi Cup, and home to TEPPAN, a teppanyaki show cooking experience; LA CAVA, an intimate signature dining room featuring Jordi Cantó’s exclusive menu; and MARE NOSTRUM, a Mediterranean-inspired international buffet serving breakfast, lunch and dinner. By day, guests gather at two grills in the pool and beach area: BREEZE, a bar and grill, and EMBER, specializing in open-fire cooking. TEPPAN and LA CAVA are offered as premium experiences at an additional charge. There’s also 24-hour in-suite dining.
- Bars and lounges: BELVUE, the iconic rooftop bar, is reserved for The One guests by day and opens to all guests each evening for the Sunset Ritual. GLIDE serves the pool, SHIMMER is the swim-up bar, and MERIDIAN is the craft cocktail bar. RITUAL, the lobby coffee house, is open 24/7 for specialty coffee, grab-and-go options, and light bites. AMÀRE LOUNGE, modeled after Amàre Pool at Sancti Petri, is a daily social lounge that eases guests from afternoon into evening.
- Two 360º rooftops with infinity pools: Each with its own swim-up bar and grill.
- Wellness: SPA by Germaine de Capuccini has nine treatment rooms, a bridal suite, a hammam, a sauna and a steam room. The Amàre Gym by Life Fitness is open 24 hours, and there's sunrise yoga and meditation.
- The One, a resort within the resort: An integrated premium service layer across 111 beachfront and upper-floor suites, including Master and Presidential Suites, with:
- Dedicated VIP check-in and access to THE ONE Lounge
- Priority restaurant and venue reservations
- Exclusive access to the Belvue Rooftop and its infinity pool until 5:00 PM
- Premium in-suite amenities, including an elevated minibar selection and Nespresso
- A dedicated concierge for The One Club Suites

About Fuerte Group
Fuerte Group is an Andalusian family-owned company headquartered in Marbella (Málaga), founded in 1957 by Mr. José Luque Manzano following the opening of Hotel El Fuerte, the first hotel in the city's urban center. The group currently operates an extensive portfolio of rooms, both under its own brands and in alliance with other international operators.
Regarding its portfolio, the company's trajectory began with Fuerte Hoteles, focused on family tourism in destinations such as Conil, El Rompido, and Grazalema. In 2018, it expanded its offering with its Olée Holiday Rentals holiday apartments. In parallel, it drove the adults-oriented segment with Amàre Hotels (Amàre Marbella in 2016 and Amàre Ibiza in 2019), a brand expanding its presence in 2026 with the openings of Amàre Sancti Petri and Amàre Cancún, the latter marking its first proprietary brand venture into the Caribbean.
Rounding out the offering are El Fuerte Marbella, transformed in 2023 into a casual five-star luxury hotel, and Daia Hotels, a brand focused on the "slow beach hotel" concept, which features its first establishment in Conil and will expand its presence to La Herradura by the second quarter of 2028.
Furthermore, Fuerte Group integrates other business lines such as comprehensive maintenance (We Resolve), construction and project development (FG Construction), agriculture (Agrodesarrollo), and social initiatives through Fundación Fuerte. The entire organization operates under a robust sustainable development strategy aimed at minimizing environmental impact, boosting the local culture and economy, fostering workplace well-being, and supporting underprivileged groups.
