Sunwing Travel Group's resort division continues its ambitious expansion with news that the Royalton Splash Riviera Cancun will open on December 20. The 1,000-suite property will cater to all ages, with amenities including an expansive on-site water park.

"For 11 years and counting, Sunwing's resort division has continued to expand its portfolio and meet our customers in some of the most beloved sun destinations in Mexico, the Caribbean and Central America," says Samantha Taylor, Chief Marketing Officer at Sunwing.

"We're thrilled for Sunwing customers to experience the new Royalton Splash Riviera Cancun, the first Royalton Splash in Mexico, and enjoy its luxury offerings and larger-than-life amenities, just in time for the 2022-2023 holiday season."

Signature Royalton amenities include the 'DreamBed' with high-thread-count sheets, rain shower, 24-hour room service, in-suite Jacuzzi in select room categories and a well-stocked mini-bar.

Sunwing says water lovers will be right at home, as the new property features four pools, a variety of beach and water sports and one of the Caribbean's largest on-site water parks, complete with 14 large water slides, two lazy rivers, a kids pool and splash pad.

For a more elevated experience, Sunwing customers can upgrade their booking and stay in the resort's exclusive 'Diamond Club' section where they'll receive dedicated butler service, a private oceanview lounge with premium drinks and canapés and an exclusive beach area, among other upscale amenities in designated suites.

As well, vacationers can enjoy an array of entertainment facilities designed with both families and friend groups in mind. In addition to the brand's 'Sports Event Guarantee' where the big game is always on, guests will never be short of fun with daily entertainment and nightly shows, two theatres, laser tag, bowling, a trampoline park, supervised programming for kids and teens and complimentary resort-wide Wi-Fi.

Guests can sample one of 12 restaurants and nine bars, with the added benefit of unlimited reservation-free dining.
