Everything you need to know about Playa Mujeres

Playa Mujeres is a gated luxury enclave just north of Cancun, where calm Caribbean water meets some of the coast's most exclusive resorts. Because the whole area is master-planned and low-rise, the beaches are quiet and the water is often calmer and clearer than the Hotel Zone. It is a short drive to Cancun's airport and nightlife when you want them, but the appeal here is seclusion, spa days and marina dinners rather than crowds. This is where travellers upgrade for a special trip.
