Conveniently located just north of Cancun, on a 20-mile peninsula complete with a remote two-mile stretch of white sand beach, and 25 minutes from the international airport, the all-inclusive adults only resort is close to a variety of Mexico’s top tourist attractions; the fishing island of Isla Mujeres, the Mayan archeological sites of the Yucatan Peninsula and the ruins at Chichen Itza, and the Playa Mujeres Golf Club, which features an 18-hole championship Greg Norman-designed golf course.
Gone are the days of wristbands and buffets. In their place are double-story suites, each with a private terrace and hydro pool.
Upon arrival, guests are greeted curbside with champagne and refreshing towels, fragranced with a hint of lavender. In the lobby, onyx pillars jet from two-toned marble floors, overshadowed only by a massive stained-glass mural illuminated from above.
Excellence Playa Mujeres offers 450 suites; all feature mahogany wood, an extra-wide, L-shaped sofa, private terrace or balcony, private Jacuzzi with indoor and outdoor access, fully equipped marble bathroom, a 42-inch, flat-screen television, complimentary wireless Internet access and concierge stations on every floor.
Dotting the seven swimming pools are hammocks and cabanas, and a man-made river winding throughout the entire property.
For those seeking a break from the sun, there are classes available in cooking, Spanish language, dancing, archery, and air-rifle shooting. For the adventurous, a wide array of activities and sports are readily at hand, including scuba diving excursions, exercise classes and jogging and swimming, making it a luxurious playground for the fit adult traveler.
The finishing touch at the resort is the spa. Surrounded by water,and reminiscent of a Greek temple, it is an island of health and well being. The wellness spa features private relaxation rooms, heated waterbeds, a 12-step hydrotherapy circuit, Swedish saunas, Roman caldariums, steam rooms, ice therapy and a full menu of massages.
