Playa Mujeres

ATTENTION EVERYONE: If you are ever going to have a honeymoon trip in your future, you have to go to the place we did. That is, if you want to have the best, most relaxing week of your life. (And why wouldn't you? After months of planning a wedding, you deserve it!)

It is called the Excellence at Playa Mujeres, and it is an all-inclusive, adults-only resort about 20 miles north of Cancun, Mexico.

We were there for a week, but I could've stayed forever. When we weren't enjoying the amenities that our room had to offer (hello, private pool on the roof!), we were exploring the rest of the resort, which includes 7 other pools (one is a lazy river!) and 8 delicious, multicultural restaurants (our favorite was the French one!).

We were also given the royal honeymoon treatment since we were, in fact, on our honeymoon. This package included breakfast in bed, a free massage/spa session, and a private dinner on the beach (which was definitely the best of the three). 

The only time we ventured outside of the resort was to go on an excursion and it was SO worth it! We visited Rio Secreto, an incredible underground river/cave. It was discovered only recently and remains virtually untouched, so we were able to swim through the crystal clear water without any man-made obstructions. See what I mean?

Somehow, I'm actually not getting paid to talk about this place, but if I haven't done a good enough job of convincing you to give it a try, feel free to check out their website (Mary Grace & Price, I'm counting on you guys!).

Playa Mujeres, I'll be back for you soon ;)
