In Mexico, this new property complements an already impressive luxury collection, including the Waldorf Astoria Los Cabos Pedregal, Conrad Punta de Mita, Conrad Tulum Riviera Maya, and the recently inaugurated Waldorf Astoria Cancun. Hilton’s strategic growth in the luxury sector in Mexico is part of a broader expansion strategy, with approximately 90 hotels and resorts across 12 brands currently welcoming guests and a pipeline of around 25 additional properties in development.
