The St. Regis Costa Mujeres Resort in Mexico’s Costa Mujeres—north of Cancun’s Hotel Zone—has officially opened, bringing 163 rooms and suites, multiple dining concepts, and signature St. Regis rituals. Room rates begin at $698 and Marriott Bonvoy award rates
A brand-new St. Regis has just opened its doors in Mexico—right on the coast in Costa Mujeres. north of Cancun’s Hotel Zone. The timing matters for travelers who have been watching the property’s development for months: after reservations began ahead of a planned June 25 opening. the resort is now welcoming guests to a new beachfront address.
The St. Regis Costa Mujeres Resort sits in Mexico’s Costa Mujeres, a location known for white-sand beaches, mangroves, and the Mesoamerican reef just nearby. Designed by Sordo Madaleno, the property spans 163 rooms and suites, including 50 suites.
Room details are built for variety. Guest rooms start at 538 square feet with either one king bed or two queen beds, and views can be of the ocean or the mangroves. Some rooms and suites include private pools, while the largest suites offer two or three bedrooms.
For travelers mapping out dates, pricing is set at a high-end level. Rates for the base room type—a deluxe room with one king bed or two queen beds and mangrove views—start at $698 for a prepaid. nonrefundable stay. or $871 for a freely cancellable rate until seven days before check-in. It’s also the kind of property where payment methods can materially change the total experience. especially if you hold premium rewards cards.
Stays are one option, but perks can be another. The resort notes that booking through Amex Fine Hotels + Resorts can add extras such as daily breakfast for two. a $100 property credit for use during the stay. and guaranteed 4 p.m. late checkout. For readers who prefer points, award rates start at 102,000 Marriott Bonvoy points per night. In some seasons. it’s possible to find five nights in a row at that rate—making a five-night stay available for 408. 000 Marriott points via the stay-for-five. pay-for-four award-stay perk.
Inside the experience, the resort leans into traditional St. Regis ritual. Guests can expect butler service, afternoon tea, and evening Champagne sabrage. Amenities round it out with an oceanfront infinity pool. beachfront cabanas. a fitness center with sweeping ocean views. a full-service spa. and a Kids Club.
Food and drink is a standout piece of the opening, with nine food and beverage outlets across the property. Costa Coral is the all-day dining venue serving Mexican cuisine. Fish Market offers Caribbean-inspired seafood and fresh local catch. Palmare Grill brings Mexican coastal cuisine to the beach. while Shami offers an elevated rooftop dining experience using Japanese techniques with Mexican Caribbean ingredients.
The St. Regis Costa Mujeres Resort is positioned for travelers who want a high-end, non-all-inclusive Cancun-area stay—one that also makes it easier to redeem Marriott Bonvoy points or stack premium-card hotel benefits, while staying away from the busiest parts of Cancun’s resort zone.

So $698? For Mexico? That’s not luxury, that’s a scam lol
I saw “late checkout” and thought it was like a buffet thing. Also nonrefundable?? So if you get sick you’re just done? Kinda messed up, even if it is beachfront.
Amex booking getting breakfast, credit, and “rituals” or whatever… sounds like a marketing thing to push credit cards. Also why is it $871 cancellable until 7 days before? Like you can’t change plans after a week anyway.
163 rooms doesn’t sound that big for the price. I don’t get the math on the rates—like it says $698 but then mentions award rates and premium cards and I’m just lost. And “north of Cancun’s Hotel Zone” like what, is it far from everything or is it still basically Cancun? The mangroves reef nearby could be cool but I feel like it’s all for rich people who don’t leave the resort.
