AIC Hotel Group is expanding its UNICO brand, announcing the UNICO Hotel Collection.

Following the success of UNICO 20°87° Riviera Maya in the Mexican Caribbean, the hospitality brand is eyeing new locations in Puerto Vallarta, Mexico and Montego Bay, Jamaica.

The first property, UNICO 20°105° Puerto Vallarta, is slated to open in fall 2025. The 141-room boutique hotel will be situated between Banderas Bay and the Sierra Madre Mountains and boast numerous highlights including a rooftop pool with sweeping views.

The UNICO Hotel Collection will focus on local culture and experiences, drawing guests with "distinctive cuisine, mixology, art, wellness, fitness, and curated adventures designed to connect guests with the unique qualities of each location," AIC Hotel Group stated.

"The success of UNICO 20°87° Riviera Maya demonstrates the power of our original promise: an all-inclusive experience with personalized service, thoughtful customization, world-class food and beverage, wellness offerings, and unique programming that celebrates local culture," Ash Tembe, vice president of sales and marketing at AIC Hotel Group, said in a statement.

"Our approach resonates with guests, distinguishing us in the all-inclusive market with a level of service and culture rarely seen in the industry. Expanding to the UNICO Hotel Collection is a natural next step, allowing us to bring the brand to new destinations known for their vibrant cultures and natural beauty."
