The Hilton Cancun Golf & Spa Resort has opened as a brand new, luxurious resort, following an impressive $40 million renovation. Already renowned for having one of the longest and widest beaches in Cancun, the Hilton Cancun’s beach was one of the first to be completely restored following Hurricane Wilma and now has an additional 50 metres (over 150 feet) of the Caribbean’s famous soft, white sand.
Dave Smith, General Manager, Hilton Cancun Golf & Spa Resort comments: “We now have a more contemporary look in some areas, while preserving our traditional Mexican-style charm in others. In addition to a bigger and better beach, we have a new lobby and guest reception, updated meeting facilities, and new décor and furniture in our guestrooms and suites. Our five restaurants and three bars are more beautiful than ever, and we have taken extra steps to upgrade our water supply and safety features. Cancun has emerged as an even more upscale destination. We look forward to welcoming new and repeat guests to Cancun’s only golf and spa resort.”
