The Hottest Hotels in Mexico to Book for 2025

Mexico isn’t just having a moment—it’s having a movement. From the cobblestone streets of Mérida to the rugged shores of Baja California Sur, the country’s hotel scene is buzzing with openings so exciting they’ll have you Googling flights faster than you can say margarita, por favor. While the world can’t seem to get enough of Mexico’s beaches, mezcal, and magical towns, these new properties are stealing the show. These aren’t just places to crash—they’re destinations unto themselves, designed to make your inner travel snob swoon. Whether you’re into rooftop DJ sets in Mexico City, poolside wine tastings in Valle de Guadalupe, or spa treatments inspired by the Sea of Cortez, the newest crop of hotels delivers a serious wow factor. Here are the ones I’m already packing my imaginary suitcase for.

VOLGA, Mexico City

Opened 2023

Mexico City’s Reforma Avenue is no stranger to glamour, but the VOLGA cranks it up to 11. Opened in mid-2024, this 50-room lifestyle hotel doesn’t just sit pretty—it knows how to party. Picture this: an underground Music Room that feels like a secret club for the who’s who, a rooftop terrace with skyline views that demand a mezcal cocktail in hand, and a restaurant helmed by culinary star Edo Kobayashi (if you know, you know). The art-meets-gastronomy vibe feels more Milan than Mexico City, and I’m here for it. Add in a concept store that’ll have you debating how much room is left in your carry-on, and VOLGA isn’t just a hotel; it’s a vibe.

Banyan Tree Veya, Valle de Guadalupe

Opened June 2024

In the heart of northern Baja’s wine country, Banyan Tree Veya brings sleek serenity to Valle de Guadalupe. Opened in summer 2024, this 30-room stunner is more than just a pretty place—it’s an experience. The villas, each with private pools, practically demand lazy mornings with a glass of local rosé (it’s wine country, after all). But the real showstopper? Banyan Tree’s first-ever signature winery, where you can sip and swirl to your heart’s content. Don’t miss the spa, where treatments are as indulgent as the region’s best vintages. If you’re not already on the Valle de Guadalupe train, consider this your ticket.

Grand Velas Boutique, Los Cabos

Opened December 2023

Grand Velas’ reputation for luxury precedes it, and its new boutique property in Los Cabos takes things to an intimate, ultra-chic level. Opened just in time for holiday getaways, this smaller-scale sibling to the brand’s mega-resorts focuses on personalized experiences. Picture an adults-only boutique atmosphere with the same jaw-dropping ocean views and indulgent dining you’d expect from Grand Velas but with fewer guests around to photobomb your poolside selfies. It’s high-end without the scene, and sometimes that’s exactly what you need.

Hotel Mousai Cancun

Opened June 2024

Cancun isn’t just for spring breakers anymore, and Hotel Mousai proves it. Opened in June 2024, this adults-only retreat combines bold design with all the amenities your inner diva could ask for. Think: rooftop infinity pools, sleek suites with ocean views and private plunge pools, and a level of service that anticipates your needs before you even know you have them. It’s sexy, it’s sophisticated, and it’s the perfect excuse to revisit Cancun with fresh eyes.

Chablé Sea of Cortez, La Paz

Opening Late 2025

If La Paz wasn’t already on your radar, Chablé Sea of Cortez will put it there. Scheduled to open in late 2025, this 70-room retreat promises barefoot luxury on 15 acres of pristine beachfront. The pod-style accommodations are next-level chic, with private plunge pools and terraces that make you feel like you’ve stepped into a travel magazine spread. Add a spa inspired by the surrounding sea and a commitment to integrating with the natural environment, and this is one opening that feels as good as it looks.

Unico 21°105°, Puerto Vallarta

Opening Fall 2025

Puerto Vallarta, meet your new it hotel. Unico 21°105° is set to debut in Fall 2025, bringing its signature modern design and hyper-local experiences to this beloved beach town. Expect an emphasis on regional culture, from curated excursions to culinary offerings that celebrate the flavors of Jalisco. Unico properties have a knack for blending luxury with authenticity, and this new outpost is no exception.

Amanvari, Baja California Sur

Opening Mid-2025

When Aman announces a new property, the luxury world pays attention—and for good reason. Amanvari, opening mid-2025, promises to be an oasis of tranquility on Baja California Sur’s rugged coastline. Minimalist architecture meets maximalist comfort, with sprawling villas that feel more like private homes. The resort’s emphasis on wellness, privacy, and understated elegance makes it a shoo-in for honeymooners, solo travelers, or anyone who just wants to disappear into paradise for a while.

Hotel Sevilla, Mérida

Opening December 2025

In the heart of Mérida, a 16th-century colonial villa is getting a jaw-dropping makeover. Hotel Sevilla, opening late 2025, blends the raw beauty of historical ruins with sleek, modern design. The result? A boutique hotel that feels timeless yet totally fresh. With just 22 suites, a lush garden, and a pool that practically begs for Instagram fame, this property is poised to become Mérida’s hottest new address. Bonus points for its shaded terraces and spa, perfect for escaping the Yucatán heat.
