The Sky Rooftop Villa at Edition Hotels’s Riviera Maya at Kanai EDITION is a retreat of dreams, where luxury meets panoramic views and exclusive amenities. Recently, supermodel Alessandra Ambrosio and fashion designer Prabal Gurung experienced the opulence of this 27,000-square-foot suite, nestled in a gated resort community sprawling across 620 acres just south of Cancun.
This grand suite, boasting over 10,000 square feet of outdoor space, offers a glimpse into a world of high-net-worth extravagance, starting at a nightly rate of $40,000. Situated on the top floor of the hotel, it provides uninterrupted vistas of the Caribbean’s beauty, surrounded by lush mangroves and swaying palms.
The penthouse is not just about breathtaking views; it’s a masterpiece of design and comfort. It comprises five apartment-like suites, each featuring a plunge pool, Jacuzzi, and private terrace with sun lounges, offering a retreat within a retreat. The living spaces are generous, with king-sized beds, floor-to-ceiling windows, French doors, and elegant dining areas, creating an ambiance of luxury and relaxation.
The multipurpose living area is a focal point, with two kitchens, a lounge, and a bar seamlessly blending indoor and outdoor living. Sliding doors lead to a covered terrace bordered by reflecting pools, enhancing the sense of tranquility and opulence. The “entertainment deck” with two DJ booths adds a touch of nightlife glamour, while the infinity pool, sun deck, cabanas, and sunken garden lounge on the adjacent terrace elevate the experience to new heights.
The design ethos of the Riviera Maya at Kanai EDITION draws inspiration from the Mayan belief in three worlds, with this edition representing the underworld. The resort’s surroundings, with verdant mangroves and a lobby cascading with lush greenery, evoke a sense of being immersed in nature without compromising on luxury and comfort.
The culinary experiences at the resort are equally enchanting, curated by renowned Mexican chefs Francisco “Paco” Ruano and Tomás Bermúdez. KI’IS offers modern Mexican cuisine, while Kitchen and SO’OL showcase the fusion of Mediterranean and Mexican flavors, all prepared with locally sourced ingredients and fresh seafood.
The property’s spa, nestled under a bamboo yoga dome, offers a serene retreat with holistic treatments, pools, a Turkish hammam, and an infrared capsule room. This blend of luxury, nature, and wellness creates a unique experience, transforming the Riviera Maya at Kanai EDITION into a sanctuary of indulgence and relaxation.
