The St. Regis Kanai Resort, Riviera Maya

Stay Exquisite at The St. Regis Kanai Resort, Riviera Maya

Perched above a pristine mangrove forest, The St. Regis Kanai Resort, Riviera Maya is a destination-defining property where striking circular architecture meets modern luxury and Mayan mysticism. Set along a 620-acre nature reserve on Mexico’s Yucatán Peninsula, this resort offers a seamless connection to both Cancun and Playa del Carmen with unrivaled ocean views.

Inspired by the Pleiades star cluster—sacred in Mayan lore—Kanai means “Paradise on Earth.” With 124 guestrooms, 19 suites, and a Presidential Suite, each accommodation features design elements drawn from ancient Mayan artistry, including carved walnut headboards and ceramic light pendants. Guests enjoy private terraces or plunge pools for spectacular sunrises and sunsets.
