The Caribbean has its newest Hard Rock hotel with the opening of the Hard Rock Hotel Riviera Maya in Puerto Aventuras.

The property held its grand opening last weekend with a concert by Jon Bon Jovi and The Kings of Suburbia and a group of celebrity guests.

“We’re beyond excited to open our doors to yet another unmatched all-inclusive resort experience,” said Frank Maduro, vie president of marketing for All-Inclusive Collection. “The explosive Grand Opening celebration was the ideal introduction to the newest all-inclusive Hard Rock Hotel and amplified our presence in Mexico.”

The 1,264-room property has both adults-only and family-friendly hotel sections, along with nine restaurants, eight bars and lounges and 88,915 square feet of meeting and event space.

“We have thoroughly enjoyed our collaboration with All Inclusive Collection and are thrilled Hard Rock Hotel Riviera Maya is officially open for guests of all ages to enjoy,” said John Galloway, chief marketing officer of Hard Rock International. “We’re certain Hard Rock Hotel Riviera Maya will exceed expectations and All Inclusive Collection will continue to bring incredible value to our brand.”

Hard Rock International also has a hotel in Punta Cana in the Dominican Republic, with a total of 19 hotels worldwide.
