The first Hyatt-branded Cancun all inclusive has officially opened its doors.

The Hyatt Zilara Cancun officially opened this week, the first of what will be a series of new Hyatt-branded all-inclusive properties in the Caribbean region.

The 307-room Zilara Cancun is located in Cancun’s Hotel Zone and is an adults-only property. Hyatt made a major foray into the all-inclusive market with its investment in Playa Hotels & Resorts in August.
