Kimpton's first all-inclusive resort to open in Mexico

Playa Hotels & Resorts, owner and operator of all-inclusive resorts in Mexico and the Caribbean, is set to open the Kimpton Tres Rios, its newest managed all-inclusive property, in early 2025. Kimpton Tres Rios, part of IHG Hotels & Resorts luxury and lifestyle portfolio, as the first all-inclusive resort for the boutique luxury brand. 

Set on a white sand beach in Mexico’s Riviera Maya, Kimpton Tres Rios has undergone a significant transformation since early 2023 to meet the high standards of both IHG and Playa Hotels & Resorts.

“Kimpton Tres Rios redefines the luxury experience in the Riviera Maya, offering guests an all-inclusive retreat where every detail has been carefully designed to provide tranquility, comfort, and an intimate connection with nature,” Playa Hotels & Resorts Executive Vice President and Chief Investment Officer Fernando Mulet said in a statement. “It has been an honor to partner with IHG Hotels & Resorts to bring this first-ever Kimpton all-inclusive property to life. The result is a true benchmark in high-end hospitality.”

The resort’s grounds cover 326 acres and three distinct ecosystems: jungle, mangrove forests and coastal dunes, which make up its remarkable nature park. Named after its three winding freshwater rivers, the park is a sanctuary for more than 90 animal species and 120 plant species. Guests can explore hidden cenotes, a native plant nursery and scenic ecological trails—all within the resort’s expansive and lush grounds.

Kimpton Tres Rios has seven  restaurants including Kotori and Sabina as well as five bars and lounges. 

The resort’s 355 accommodations range in size and view with over 20 categories including adults-only suites and ocean view swim-out suites with direct access to a plunge pool from the balcony. Each newly designed room and suite is modern and refined with elegant furnishings that exude serenity and draw inspiration from the local surroundings and culture. Guests can expect inclusions such as complimentary Wi-Fi, fully stocked minibars and 24-hour room service.

Public spaces at the property include four swimming pools, wellness programs, kids' activities, watersports, the Kej Spa and a fitness center.

"We’re thrilled to be getting closer to the opening of Kimpton’s first all-inclusive resort, a special milestone for our pioneering brand,” said SVP and Managing Director for Luxury & Lifestyle Americas, IHG Hotels & Resorts, Leanne Harwood. “With our partners at Playa Hotels & Resorts, we know Kimpton Tres Rios will become a true oasis in the vibrant Riviera Maya and offer an array of expansive experiences for all who stay.”
