The Bar/Lounge at Kempinski Hotel Cancun

"Whether or not the formal ambience is your cup of tea, there's no denying the superiority of the service: A beach attendant brings ice for the bottled water you grabbed from the minibar or sets your tote bag on a stool so it doesn't get sandy; a spa attendant adjusts the temperature of your shower before you step in"

"Fantino restaurant is one of the country's top-rated kitchens, and specializes in Mediterranean cuisine; sybarites will love the chef's table—which includes a tasting menu, wine pairings, and even cooking lessons—as well as weekly tequila tastings in the Lobby Bar"

"Rooms are done in understated shades of teal, beige, and rose, with wall-to-wall carpeting, large balconies overlooking the Caribbean, and marble bathrooms; for complete indulgence, opt for Club Level accommodations, which include use of a private lounge that serves fine food and unlimited cocktails throughout the day"

"This luxurious hotel also has two lounges and a culinary center with cooking classes"

"Among the six restaurants and two lounges on premise are the award-winning establishments, The Club Grill and Fantino"
