Hyatt's New AMAI Riviera Maya Resort: What It Costs in Cash and Points
Rooms start around $1,500 a night or 45,000 to 85,000 points, and you can book late 2026 stays now.
An earlier opening and a $1,500 starting rate
Cash room rates at Hyatt's new Riviera Maya resort seem to generally start at around $1,500 per night, including taxes and fees, and the opening date has moved earlier than the previously reported February 15 debut [1][2]. If you collect World of Hyatt points or plan a Caribbean trip, this affects your booking choices. Hyatt is already accepting reservations for the property [2].
This piece covers what the resort offers, what it costs in cash and points, and how the opening timeline shifted.
Where it is and how it fits Hyatt's plans
The resort is set within AMAI, an enclave of luxury retreats on the white-sand Caribbean shore between Cancún and Puerto Morelos [3]. Guests will have preferred privileges at El Tinto Golf Course nearby [2].
In late 2023, Hyatt and Parks Hospitality Holdings announced a collaboration to develop four new Mexico properties [1]. Hyatt has leaned heavily into the all-inclusive space, particularly through acquisitions [1].
The timeline so far
The hotel was initially supposed to open in 2025, then started accepting reservations for February 2027 stays, and is now accepting reservations for late 2026 stays [1]. The opening date was moved earlier than the previously reported February 15 debut [2].
Rooms, pools and service
Some rooms will have their own private swimming or plunge pools [3]. Selected room categories will have their own plunge pools or private pools, including ocean-view options [2]. Everyone else can use the large beachfront pool, which will have private cabanas [2].
Each guest will be assigned a dedicated Resort Ambassador before arrival [3]. Interiors will showcase selected works from Yucatan-based artists, with furniture and millwork by regional artisans [3].
Food and spa
The food program emphasizes à la carte restaurants rather than a traditional buffet-first all-inclusive model [2]. One of them is Beach Grill IK'AL, a beachfront restaurant with seafood and Yucatecan flavors [1].
For downtime, the resort will include Nayade Spa & Wellness with treatment rooms and an open-air spa garden [2].
Paying with cash or points
Redeemed points follow World of Hyatt's Category F all-inclusive award chart, typically costing 45,000 to 85,000 points per night regardless of occupancy [1]. Because the cost does not change with occupancy, the number of guests in the room does not change the points price [1].
Hyatt Privé benefits for cash stays include a room upgrade, complimentary breakfast, a hotel credit, and more [1].
What it means for you
If you want a late 2026 stay, Hyatt is accepting reservations for those dates now [1][2]. If you pay cash, expect rates that seem to generally start at around $1,500 per night, including taxes and fees [1]. Cash stays also come with Hyatt Privé benefits such as a room upgrade, complimentary breakfast and a hotel credit [1].
If you use points, plan for 45,000 to 85,000 per night under the Category F all-inclusive chart [1]. If you want a private pool, look at the selected room categories that include plunge pools or private pools, including ocean-view options [2].
