Riu Hotels and Resorts is opening another new all-inclusive resort in the Caribbean, Caribbean Journal has learned.

The Spanish company is set to debut the new Riu Latino in Costa Mujeres near Cancun in October.

The adults-only resort, which officially opens Oct. 1, is set in the fast-growing Costa Mujeres, sometimes dubbed the “New Cancun.”

It joins a pair of Riu resorts in the area: Riu Dunamar and Riu Costa Mujeres, both of which opened prior to the pandemic.

The 550-room property will be the only adults-only resort in Costa Mujeres.

Amenities will range from five different pools to access to the Splash Water World water park.
