Hilton Cancun Gets $40 mil Renovation
CANCUN, Mexico, May 19, 2006. The Hilton Cancun Golf & Spa Resort has opened as a brand new, luxurious resort, following a $40 million renovation.
The Hilton Cancun's beach was one of the first to be completely restored following Hurricane Wilma and now has an additional 50 metres (over 150 feet) of the Caribbean's famous soft, white sand.
Dave Smith, General Manager, Hilton Cancun Golf & Spa Resort comments: "We now have a more contemporary look in some areas, while preserving our traditional Mexican-style charm in others. In addition to a bigger and better beach, we have a new lobby and guest reception, updated meeting facilities, and new d'ecor and furniture in our guestrooms and suites. Our five restaurants and three bars are more beautiful than ever, and we have taken extra steps to upgrade our water supply and safety features. Cancun has emerged as an even more upscale destination. We look forward to welcoming new and repeat guests to Cancun's only golf and spa resort."
Changes to the resort include a brand new, state-of-the-art fitness centre overlooking the ocean and pool which features over $120,000 of new cardio and weight-lifting equipment that include built-in LCD displays with satellite television reception.
The front entrance and garden areas have been restored and a 12,000-square-foot spa facility is ready to pamper guests with soothing massages, body treatments, facials, manicures, pedicures, and a full-service hair salon.
