Kempinski Hotel Cancún: Reaffirming Global Excellence with Forbes Travel Guide’s 2026 Four-Star Rating

Hero

Cancun, Mexico, February 11, 2026 – In an era of generic luxury, true distinction is rare. Kempinski Hotel Cancún is proud to announce it has earned the Forbes Travel Guide Four-Star rating for the third consecutive year, a prestigious accolade held by only a select fraction of the world’s most elite properties.

As the only independent, global rating system for luxury hotels, Forbes Travel Guide dispatches anonymous professional inspectors to evaluate over 900 rigorous standards. This recertification solidifies Kempinski’s standing as a premier luxury beachfront resort and a leader in the ultra-competitive Mexican Caribbean market.

"Earning this star rating for three years running is a testament to our team’s obsession with detail," said Coenraad Bergwerf, General Manager of Kempinski Hotel Cancún. "In a destination with hundreds of options, Forbes confirms that Kempinski remains the benchmark for refined hospitality in Cancun."

The Pinnacle of Refined Travel 

Situated on a half-kilometer of pristine coastline, the resort offers an experience defined by seclusion and European elegance:

Signature Accommodations: Luxury Oceanfront Suites that serve as private observatories over the turquoise waters.

Kayantá Spa: An intimate sanctuary focused on rejuvenation, where luxury spa treatments meet the highest global benchmarks for wellness and service.

Culinary Mastery: The resort continues to be a gastronomic lighthouse, home to two AAA Five Diamond restaurants, Fantino and The Club Grill—a rare feat that few luxury properties worldwide can claim.
