Something’s cooking in the Riviera Maya
In Quintana Roo, a new luxury master-planned community of Kanai started rolling out this year with the opening of Etereo, a member of Auberge Resorts Collection.
To follow will be the St. Regis Kanai as well as the Riviera Maya Edition. Kanai spans 680 acres, with 1.2 miles of beachfront, and is less than a 30-minute drive from the Cancun airport.
Etereo’s 75 studios and suites all feature mangrove and ocean views and floor-to-ceiling windows, and many have private plunge pools. Studios start at 875 square feet, while suites start at 1,375 square feet and go up to 3,925 square feet. Suites also include butler service.

Dining includes Mayan restaurant Itzam, the Alberca pool restaurant, Che Che for Nikkei cuisine and El Changarro for toes-in-the-sand seafood.
The Riviera Maya Edition will open later this year with 180 guestrooms and suites, six food and beverage options, a pool bar and beach club and a spa. The St. Regis Kanai will debut in December with 124 guest rooms and 32 villas with private pools.
