Overview


Nestled on the tranquil banks of the Nichupté Lagoon, the 4-star Sunset Marina Resort & Yacht Club offers a Mediterranean-inspired escape from the bustling heart of Cancun. You’ll enjoy a unique perspective of the Hotel Zone, where the calm lagoon waters meet chic yacht club vibes. Located just an 8-minute drive from the vibrant nightlife of the Coco Bongo area, this hotel provides a peaceful retreat while keeping the city's energy within easy reach. A stand-out feature of your stay is the scenic water taxi service, which whisks you across the lagoon to a sister resort so you can enjoy the white sands of the Caribbean Sea.

Pools and Spa

If you are looking for deep relaxation, the on-site spa offers a range of Caribbean-inspired therapies and wellness rituals. Please note that the use of the Spa centre, including massages, treatments, and sauna facilities, is subject to additional charges.


Beach


While the hotel is located on the lagoon side, you are never far from the ocean. You can take a complimentary water taxi or a short shuttle ride to the sister resort, Sunset Royal, which is situated directly on a stunning stretch of public beach. Here, you will find a dedicated section for guests with sun loungers and umbrellas provided free of charge.


Sport and Entertainment


Active guests can make the most of the lagoon setting with non-motorized water sports like kayaking and pedal boats. The resort also organises daily activities including aerobics and dance lessons. As the sun sets, the atmosphere turns tranquil and sophisticated, with live music or themed entertainment nights held at the marina-side bar.


Family Amenities


Families are well-catered for with a variety of child-friendly facilities. Kids will love the dedicated splash zone in the main pool and the organised activities at the kids' club (ages 4-12), which include arts, crafts, and games. The calm lagoon environment is also ideal for families seeking a safer, more contained water experience compared to the open ocean.

“Staff are great!”

I met Ximena at the Sunset Marina Kids Club, Cancun and I was very impressed with how well she handles children. She was friendly, patient, and attentive. She took the time to play with my son, interact with him, and even watch YouTube videos together. It was wonderful to see how engaged and comfortable my son was with her. Ximena is truly a great employee who shows genuine care and dedication to her work. She is definitely an asset to the Kids Club team. Keep up the great work, Ximena!
