The Riviera Maya EDITION at Kanai

The hotel is located approximately 40 minutes from the airport and sits within a shared compound alongside two other properties—the St. Regis and Auberge. A convenient golf cart system makes it easy to travel between the three resorts. While the hotel feels somewhat isolated from outside surrounding areas, the hotel itself is exceptional, with impeccably maintained grounds. Staff members are constantly visible and consistently maintaining the grounds. Guest rooms are spread across three separate buildings, though none offers an advantage over the others. Service throughout the resort is exceptional. At both pools, attendants regularly checked in to see if we needed anything—fresh towels, ice, water—and even repositioned umbrellas to provide additional shade as needed. Everyone we interacted with consistently went out of their way to ensure we were comfortable. The gym and spa are both beautiful and very well maintained. While high pricing is expected at this type of resort, the spa services were still notably expensive, with massages exceeding $400 USD including gratuity. The gym is complimentary for guests and accessible 24 hours a day using your room key. The restaurants throughout the compound offer a variety of dining options, all of which allow charges to be applied directly to your room. While each venue provides a high-end experience, pricing across the restaurants is fairly consistent on the expensive side.

We had a wonderful dinner at the So’ol Edition with our friends while visiting Riviera Maya the whole seabass was excellent as well as the short rib. Brian was our server and was super attentive to us from all of the salts that he offered us on our margaritas to the local Mexican wine suggestions that he gave us. I would highly recommend coming here if you’re in Riviera Maya!

Marco was an excellent waiter and cabana attendant! Highly recommend! The NYE festivities were also lovely- delicious buffet at So'ol and a fun beach party afterwards! Festive season schedule is nice for adults and kids. Maybe more for adults outside the holidays, but perfect for all now.

We had an absolutely amazing time at the Edition. We had two families with our kids there and they accommodated our every need! Solomon and David Martinez and many others at the pool and cabana area were outstanding staff members helping us ring in the new year with pure magic! Thank you Edition @ Kanai!

Such an amazing experience, beautiful rooms and atmosphere. Every part of the hotel feels masterfully crafted. Was lucky enough to be taken care of by the pool by Ricardo all week, he is the absolute best.
