JW Marriott Cancún Resort & Spa fronts a long white beach at the heart of Cancun, Mexico's most popular island playground. Groups arrive to find personalized service and a luxurious mix of work and play: 20,299 square feet of meeting space, 448 rooms and suites, three restaurants, and a 35,000-square-foot spa.

The thoroughly modern hotel rises 14 stories just 11 miles from the airport and 2 miles from the city’s convention center. A footbridge connects to the Casa-Magna Marriott Cancún Resort, which shares meeting facilities, restaurants, and signing privileges with guests of the JW Marriott.

At home, the JW Marriott harbors 17 meeting rooms, headlined by the Grand Ballroom—an elegant space for groups of up to 1,800. Its 14,432 square feet divide into eight smaller rooms for breakouts. Seven multipurpose rooms measure 560 to 1,292 square feet, while two executive boardrooms measure 506 square feet each.

All meeting rooms come with wireless Internet access, the latest audiovisual support, and professional planners to handle every detail. Optional perks range from walkie-talkies to TV production services. Nearby, a business center supplies additional small conference rooms, break rooms, and workstations along with secretarial, messenger, and delivery services.

Open-air events take full advantage of the Caribbean beachfront locale. Four terraces and poolside spaces host receptions for up to 150 and 850. Held indoors or out, theme parties like Mexican Market and Ancient Maya feature regional decorations, music, and food.

For restaurant dining, participants select from Simply Seafood for lobster and prime rib buffets three times a week, Gustino for Italian and seafood specialties, and Beach Walk for snacks and drinks. Room service operates 24 hours, tempting attendees to enjoy meals on their private sea-view balconies- standard in all rooms and suites. The accommodations also provide large marble bathrooms, wireless Internet access, CD players, digital safes, and two-line phones with voice mail.

Club 91, a boutique hotel within the resort, takes luxury even further with special welcome gifts, premium rooms, a concierge lounge, airport transfers, and complimentary access to the Mayan-inspired spa-a three-story temple of indulgence furnishing all-natural body treatments as well as exercise studios, a state-of- the-art gym, an indoor pool and Jacuzzi, and tennis courts. Outdoor recreation often centers on the lagoon-style pool that winds throughout the property. For aspiring scuba divers and snorkelers, PADI-certified lessons take place in a special pool equipped with an artificial reef.

Energized by the sun and sea or excursions like sportfishing, bullfights, and tours of ancient Mayan ruins, attendees can reach new peaks of productivity while storing up memories to last a lifetime.
