Cancun has its share of high-end all-inclusives. But none of them are quite like the newly opened, wine-inspired, Secrets The Vine Cancun

AMResorts, provider of sales, marketing and brand management services for Zoetry Wellness & Spa Resorts, and Secrets, Dreams, Now and Sunscape Resorts & Spas, celebrated the official opening of the adults-only Secrets The Vine Cancun on August 19. The introduction of the wine-inspired resort, AMResorts’ 21st property in Mexico, represents the Secrets brand’s entry into Cancun’s hotel zone.

About The Vine

Designed by the award-winning Rockwell Group, Secrets The Vine Cancun has 495 chic rooms with signature design elements including a private balcony overlooking the Caribbean Sea and Laguna Nichupte, Italian porcelain floors polished to mimic wood, custom-covered headboards and teak wood furnishings, luxury linens and Rockwell Group-designed APF mirrors, and white glass-wrapped bathrooms. It is situated in the heart of Cancun and on the golden Yucatan Peninsula coastline.

Upon entering Secrets The Vine, clients will instantly take note of the Mayan culture and Yucatan Peninsula design influences. For example, the concierge area, envisioned as a smoking room, mixes traditional hacienda and contemporary-style furniture.

Secrets The Vine’s signature design also celebrates fine wine, starting with its lobby which houses The Vine Bar, a designated wine tasting area for guests, featuring a wine wall with nearly 3,000 varieties. 

There, clients can enjoy sommelier-led tastings hosted at the locally handcrafted wood table with seating for up to 14 guests. A Vine Bazaar completes the wine-centric experience. This area of the resort has a variety of relaxing spaces including The Vine Café, The Vine Bar & The Lounge, Terrace, and The Library, which was designed to recall the ancient Mexican tradition of storytelling.

The resort is also home to the very trendy Red Vine Piano Bar, open from 5:30 p.m. to 1 a.m. This is where clients can enjoy a great variety of national and international wines as suggested by the resort’s sommelier. The bar has sleek and modern-rich parquet floors, custom sconces and an intimate lighted dance floor. It seats about 80 people and the dress code is casual.
