Current hotel name

Le Méridien Cancún no longer operates under that name. The same property now runs as Sandos Cancún, an adults-only all-inclusive resort since 2025.

Our take

This page keeps the Le Méridien Cancún name because travelers still search for it, but the property changed brands years ago and now operates as Sandos Cancún. Since 2025 it has been adults-only and all-inclusive. It retains the Retorno del Rey location, beach, spa and three-tiered pools; it should not be booked expecting Le Méridien or Marriott services or affiliation.
