First time in Mexico, love the place. Everyone was helpful and inviting. Had a two room suite. Only issue was with toilets. After the first flush, You would need to wait 10 to 15 minutes to get a good second flush. Also didn't really have a fridge, had coolers instead which one was very warm. Staff brought another fridge but was barely cooling also.

We liked the simplicity of the rooms; spa and service was truly amazing. Nice pools and beach club. Food was great. Neighbor St Regis access is great for dinner at Toro and walking just to see( we have stayed there before and it is awesome as well)
Make sure that you have unobstructed view to the room TV or ask for a change.we did.
Overall loved it

Had a fabulous trip to Edition Kanai with my husband, mom and brother to celebrate my husband’s 50th birthday. The service was excellent, so many places in Mexico say they are 5 star and are not. This one is. Edgardo (manager) was helpful with reservations and checked in on us frequently, Jassel (guest exp) arranged for decorations and an amazing cake in our room upon arrival, Ricardo at the bar was so sweet and made excellent cocktails, and Ramon at the pool made sure we were never without shade, food and drinks. The housekeeping, other bar/restaurant/pool/beach and room service staff were amazing too. The staff overall were so thoughtful and kind, which is what makes great stays unforgettable and unique. The property and rooms were beautiful and modern, with potted plants everywhere and everything was impeccably well-kept and clean. There was plenty of space at either pools and the beach and they had a service cleaning sargassum on the beach the entire time (which is a big issue at other properties in the area this time of year). The food was GREAT. You are invited to visit the neighboring St. Regis and Auberge restaurants as well, which is nice, but the food on property was especially well-thought of and prepared with fresh ingredients. Even room service food was outstanding, which is hit or miss even at the nicest hotels. My husband and I are already planning our next trip out, but will remember this one for a long time.

A Truly Unforgettable Birthday Weekend at The Edition Kanai
My family and I just returned from the most incredible weekend at The Edition Hotel in Kanai, celebrating both my birthday and my daughter’s birthday — and I can’t say enough about how special the entire experience was. From the moment we arrived, the hotel’s beauty took our breath away. The property is stunning, the grounds are immaculate, and the pool area is kept so clean that it feels like a true oasis.
What truly elevated this trip, though, was the extraordinary staff. Every single person we encountered went above and beyond, and their warmth is what made this stay unforgettable.
A very special shout-out to Esther from Guest Services, who was absolutely exceptional. She catered to our every need with such grace, kindness, and attentiveness. Her responsiveness was unmatched — every message, every request, every question was met with immediate care and genuine concern for our family’s comfort. It was clear she truly cared about us, especially our children, and wanted to make sure our celebration was perfect in every way. From coordinating the beautiful birthday room décor to helping arrange every detail behind the scenes, she made us feel like we were her top priority the entire weekend.
At the pool bar and restaurant, Hector was fantastic — warm, attentive, and always making sure we were taken care of. Angel, the manager, ensured every meal and every moment ran smoothly, and his team executed every detail.

Very impressed with this property, it's really an amazing place to stay. I look forward to coming back again. The design and decor were super chic, rooms were immaculate, staff is incredibly helpful, friendly, and on top of it. Food was great, spa was amazing. Wow all around. Prices for food were a bit steep, not possible to get a meal of any kind less than $100, but that's the price you pay.

Incredible stay at Edition. The service and condition of the facilities was amazing. The staff goes above and beyond to ensure every need is met.

The pool area is sprawling and we never felt a crowd for any experience or meal.

The ocean / beach isn't quite the same as most of the Cancun resorts but the pool area makes up for that.

Would definitely return to the Edition.

Absolutely loved this place—it’s a little piece of heaven. The adults-only Sol Dol pool quickly became our go-to spot to unwind and soak in the beauty of the resort. What truly made it unforgettable was the incredible service from Rafael Ochoa. He was consistently warm, attentive, and went above and beyond to make sure we had everything we needed. His attention to detail and genuine care made our experience feel both effortless and luxurious.

A special shoutout to Esther, our concierge, who was equally amazing. She gave us a fantastic tour of the hotel, pointed out all the special touches, and was always just a WhatsApp message away whenever we needed anything.

The staff at the lobby bar were an absolute blast—fun, friendly, and serving up fantastic drinks with great energy and attentiveness.

We’re in love with Edition Kanai. Every single team member we encountered was outstanding. Can’t wait to come back!

My wife, & I stay at The Edition Riviera Maya this past weekend for her birthday. The property was gorgeous, although the weather wasn’t. Unfortunately, it’s still the end of the hurricane season in Mexico. Thank God, we did get some sunshine though. The place is gorgeous! Every single person was warm, & kind to us. The prices for food, & drinks were expensive, be prepared! I believe they also said that they were holding $450 a night on my credit card, which I thought was unusually high, but I had no problem with checking in or checking out. I felt like the Edition was missing 1 all day casual dining restaurant. I don’t know if it’s because the property is new, & they plan on building some else later or not. They didhave the pool restaurant and room service were available, But it would’ve been nice to have a nice restaurant to eat inside in the AC during the day. I did go next-door to the Saint Regis to eat it one of their restaurants, Torro! That restaurant was truly amazing! I suggest you eat at least one meal there during your day. Trust me it will be worth it! They were able to take us over there by golf cart, too! The only thing negative I have to say about my whole experience is the bartenders down at the beach bar did not make drinks at all. After ordering a few cocktails, & asking for one to be switched out, because it was so bad, which they did do for us…. the bartenders at the beach bar really need to be retrained. It’s pretty bad. Overall, I love this place though.

This is a brand spanking new hotel and as such it has all of the blessings (and a few of the kinks) that a new hotel has.

To start, the property is gorgeous. Given it is new, we got it at an exceptionally low rate which I imagine will double soon. I preferred it to the St. Regis next door which just felt too big and mall-like. This is cozy yet grand, integrating the beauty of the natural environment. The architecture tells a story of how cenotes in the region were created, with a meteor hitting the land, the hotel radiating from this central \"impact point.\"

The food is exceptional and the service is decent (for the most part, with the exception perhaps one person at the front desk who was a bit snarky). While it doesn't have some of the perks that other hotels at this price point might (like a highly active Whatsapp concierge) it makes up for it in just being an attentive hotel.

This is not really a hotel for folks who might want to go around an do a bunch of regional activities (the prices for activities were pretty high compared to what you can get in nearby playa del carmen) but it is perfect for folks who just want to comfortably lounge at an incredibly private and clean beach. The beach truly was well manicured and incredible -- no worries about seaweed here!

Some of the rooms in our crew had some kinks in them (a weirdly functioning safe, clogged drains, etc) but they were quickly fixed.

Also make your reservations in advance!

Joshua, our guest experience contact, was absolutely the best. He checked in with us frequently and made us feel like such VIPs.
