Hyatt Hotels Corporation (NYSE: H) and Parks Hospitality Holdings (“PHH”) have unveiled an exciting collaboration set to enrich Mexico's hospitality landscape. This partnership will introduce four new Hyatt properties across Mexico, including Mexico City, Los Cabos, and Cancun, starting from 2024. The expansion plan comprises two Grand Hyatt hotels, a select-service offering near Cancun International Airport, and the much-anticipated Park Hyatt brand debut in Cancun.
This strategic move by Hyatt and PHH responds to a surging demand for luxury and leisure travel, underlining a commitment to fostering growth in Mexico. It promises travelers an array of personalized services, distinctive culinary experiences, and versatile event spaces in prime locations, catering to both leisure and business guests.
Camilo Bolaños, Senior Vice President of Development for Latin America & the Caribbean at Hyatt, emphasized the significance of nurturing relationships with partners like Parks Hospitality Holdings. He stated, "Hyatt's unique position, coupled with our agility, enables us to build personal relationships, draw from our experiences, and lead with empathy, all contributing to the world-class hospitality that Hyatt is renowned for."

The resort’s architectural splendor, artistry, personalized service, and understated luxury set against Cancun's pristine beaches make it a home away from home.
2. Grand Hyatt Mexico Santa Fe (Opening in 2025): In 2025, this 287-room hotel will open, marking the first urban Grand Hyatt property in Mexico. It will offer panoramic city views, over 10,000 square feet of event space, and is part of the Distrito Santa Fe mixed-use project.
3. Grand Hyatt Los Cabos (Opening in 2026): Situated within the OLEADA Pacific Living & Golf private resort community, this 300-room property offers 1,200 acres of luxury, including an 18-hole golf course designed by Golf Hall of Famer Ernie Els, signature restaurants, bars, and more.
4. Hyatt Place Cancun Airport (Opening in late 2026): This 156-room property, conveniently located near Cancun International Airport, caters to leisure and business travelers with contemporary design, spacious areas, and 24/7 conveniences.

If you’ve ever dreamed of sinking a hole-in-one or beating the course record, Ribs & Brews at Hilton Dubai Al Habtoor City has just the excuse to step up your swing. The popular American grill and sports bar has launched its brand-new Golf Simulator Competition Series, bringing a fresh spin on fun, friendly competition every week until the end of September.

Here’s how to enter the Hole-in-One Contest
Guests can earn up to three shots based on what they spend at the bar. Whether you go for food, non-alcoholic sips, or a round of selected hops, every order brings you closer to swinging for glory. If your shot lands just right, that AED 10,000 prize is all yours.
Terms apply, including verified attempts by staff, minimum spends, and a fair play policy to ensure a level game for all.
Think you can break the course record?
Just book your simulator session, aim for your best score, and if you top the leaderboard, AED 1,000 in F&B credit is yours to enjoy. Live leaderboard updates and real-time scoring make it a thrilling chase for the crown each week.
Beyond the competitions, Ribs & Brews is also offering a special per-hour deal for simulator play (redeemable on food and drinks from 12 PM to 5 PM)—the perfect midday escape.
With a buzzing social setting, epic gameplay, and prizes that make it all worthwhile, the Golf Simulator Competitions at Ribs & Brews are quickly becoming a must-do in the Dubai scene.
So, round up your crew, grab your clubs (or just your appetite), and make your way down to Hilton Dubai Al Habtoor City. There's a swing, a story, and maybe even some serious winnings waiting for you.

Laguna Golf Lang Co continues its winning streak on the global stage with its latest recognition—being named one of Asia’s Top 100 Golf Courses by the Asia Golf Leaders Forum (AGLF). The announcement came during the prestigious Asia Golf Awards Ceremony held in South Korea.
Part of the iconic Laguna Lang Co integrated resort in Vietnam, the championship course has consistently received accolades for its stunning layout, guest experience, and commitment to eco-conscious operations. Designed by six-time Major winner Sir Nick Faldo, the 18-hole course blends seamlessly into its natural surroundings—set between jungle-clad mountains and the East Sea, with dramatic streams, rice paddies, and rocky outcrops defining the play.
“We’re thrilled to be recognised among the top golf courses in Asia,” shared Stephen Banks, Director of Golf at Laguna Golf Lang Co. “This award reflects the passion and precision our team brings every day. It's also a tribute to Sir Nick Faldo’s vision, which continues to attract and inspire players worldwide.”
The course isn’t just visually striking—it’s also earned respect for its sustainability initiatives. Its globally praised “edible golf course” concept integrates working rice paddies maintained by local farmers and water buffalo, showcasing a harmonious blend of golf and local heritage.
The Asia Top 100 list—compiled by leading golf media, professionals, and influencers—recognises excellence in course design, maintenance, and guest services across the region.
Laguna Golf Lang Co’s growing list of awards includes:
“Vietnam’s Best Golf Resort” by World Golf Awards
Top 10 Golf Resorts in Asia-Pacific by Golf Travel Magazine
Multiple certifications for environmental and agronomic excellence
But golf is just the beginning. The resort offers a full destination experience, including:
Banyan Tree’s luxury Seaview Pool Villas
World-class dining options serving Vietnamese and international cuisine
Banyan Tree Spa, cultural excursions to Hue Imperial City and Bach Ma National Park
Family-friendly activities like archery, water sports, and kids’ programmes
“This destination has become so much more than a golf course,” said Banks. “Laguna Lang Co is a full lifestyle experience—uniting world-class golf with culture, nature, and luxury hospitality. We're proud to play a part in putting Vietnam on the map as a top-tier golf destination in Asia.”
