The Westin Resort & Spa, Cancun Sold

Alojica and Royalton Hotels & Resorts have acquired The Westin Resort & Spa, Cancun, with plans to convert it into an all-inclusive property under the Westin Hotels & Resorts brand.

Alojica, through a platform sponsored by Black Creek Mexico and Royalton Hotels & Resorts, has completed the acquisition of The Westin Resort & Spa, Cancun, from affiliates of Marriott Vacations Worldwide. The transaction marks Alojica’s fourth lodging investment in Mexico and its second collaboration with Royalton.

The Westin Resort & Spa, Cancun is located in Punta Nizuc at the southern end of the Cancun Hotel Zone, near Cancun International Airport. The property includes 372 guestrooms and suites, five restaurants and bars, 20,000 square feet of meeting space, a spa, and a children’s club.

Following the acquisition, Alojica and Royalton plan to implement a capital improvement program to convert the property into an all-inclusive resort. The resort will continue to operate under the Westin Hotels & Resorts brand as part of Marriott Bonvoy’s all-inclusive portfolio.

Cancun International Airport, located near the property, receives over 30 million passengers annually, making the area a significant destination for international travelers.

This acquisition is part of a broader strategy by Alojica and Royalton to expand their presence in Mexico’s resort market, particularly in the all-inclusive segment. The companies previously collaborated on other lodging investments in the country.

No timeline for the completion of the conversion or details regarding the scope of renovations have been disclosed. The acquisition follows continued interest in the Mexican resort market, particularly in Cancun, which remains a major destination for U.S. travelers.

The Westin Resort & Spa, Cancun, was designed by architect Ricardo Legorreta. The property’s facilities include event space and amenities associated with the Westin brand.

Further information on operational changes or rebranding efforts is expected to be announced as the capital improvement plan progresses.
