After All-Inclusive by Marriott Bonvoy introduced its first luxury all-inclusive property with Sanctuary Cap Cana, a Luxury Collection Resort in the Dominican Republic in 2023, the brand has continued to expand its offerings with standout destinations that are redefining the luxury all-inclusive experience. 

The collection now features more properties, including Paraiso de la Bonita in Riviera Maya, Almare in Isla Mujeres and W Punta Cana, each bringing distinct offerings and elevated experiences to discerning travellers.

Hacienda-Style Luxury in Riviera Maya

Paraiso de la Bonita, which opened in January 2025 in Puerto Morelos, Mexico, showcases reimagined hacienda-style architecture that blends heritage with modern luxury. 

Nestled between mangroves and the Caribbean Sea, this adults-only resort features 100 oceanfront suites, each with private balconies or terraces. The property stands out as one of the few Caribbean resorts with an open-air Thalasso therapy centre and offers 24/7 in-suite dining, premium spirits and curated culinary experiences across six restaurants. 

Guests can enjoy chef-guided workshops, wine and tequila tastings and the Bonita Piano Bar with haute mixology and live music.

Mayan Heritage Meets Modern Elegance

Meanwhile, Almare on Isla Mujeres presents a boutique-style experience with 109 rooms that celebrate local design and Caribbean views. 

Opening in October 2024, this adults-only resort draws deep cultural connections to Mayan heritage and Ixchel mythology. The property features a rooftop infinity pool, beachfront serenity with water sports, and the acclaimed Seasalt rooftop restaurant offering panoramic ocean views. 

The circular Alma Spa, with its seven treatment rooms and Mayan-inspired architecture, symbolises fertility and life cycles whilst providing nature-integrated treatments.

A World-First W Experience

The newest addition, W Punta Cana in the Dominican Republic, represents a groundbreaking milestone as the first W-branded all-inclusive resort in the world. 

Opening in August 2025, this adults-only property features bold, playful design with private pools and vibrant nightlife. The resort's "Whatever/Whenever" personalised service concept supports 12 restaurants and bars, 24/7 in-room dining and daily entertainment programming. Standout dining venues include Trade Market with live cooking stations, Scena offering Dominican-Caribbean fusion, and the exclusive 33 1/3 Speakeasy Bar.

Together, these properties demonstrate Marriott's commitment to elevating the all-inclusive experience beyond traditional expectations, offering sophisticated travellers immersive cultural connections, exceptional culinary programmes and personalised luxury service in some of the Caribbean's most coveted destinations.
