Luxury Blog · Playa Mujeres, Cancún
Adults-only and all-inclusive on the quiet coast north of Cancún, facing Isla Mujeres.
Excellence Resorts has built its reputation on one idea: adults on vacation should be treated as adults, in a setting designed only for them, by a staff that learns their names. Excellence Playa Mujeres is one of the best examples of it.
The resort sits on the mainland at Playa Mujeres, a quieter stretch of beach north of the Cancún Hotel Zone, about 30 minutes from Cancún International Airport. Isla Mujeres sits just across the water. You get the beaches and easy airport transfer of Cancún without the traffic and crowds of the Hotel Zone.
Close to the airport, far from the crowds. That is the reason couples come back to Playa Mujeres.
Suites and the Excellence Club
Swim-up suites open directly onto the pools, and rooftop terrace suites come with private plunge pools. The Excellence Club adds a private pool and beach area, a dedicated lounge and concierge service, and in-room extras. For anniversaries and honeymoons, the Club is worth the upgrade.
Dining and golf
Dining is à la carte across many restaurants, with no buffets required and no reservations needed at most. The Playa Mujeres Golf Club, designed by Greg Norman, is next door, and the spa includes a hydrotherapy circuit. A day trip to Isla Mujeres is an easy boat ride away.
