Atelier Playa Mujeres, Riviera Maya

ATELIER Playa Mujeres is a luxury adults only (16+) all inclusive resort located in the exclusive Playa Mujeres area, on Ilsa Blanca. Designed around contemporary Mexican art, architecture, and gastronomy, the resort combines a modern luxury feel with a more sophisticated and relaxed atmosphere than many traditional all inclusive resorts in the region. Set between a long stretch of white sand beach and an 18 hole golf course, it particularly suits couples, honeymooners, food lovers, and guests looking for a higher end all inclusive experience with excellent dining and stylish accommodation.

The resort has a distinctly contemporary design throughout, with extensive use of natural stone, wood, artwork, and open spaces. Despite its size, the property generally feels spacious and calm, with a strong focus on service, premium food and drink, and upscale facilities. The location in Playa Mujeres also provides a quieter setting compared to Cancún’s main hotel zone, while still being within easy reach of Cancún International Airport.

ATELIER Playa Mujeres operates on a luxury all inclusive basis with an unusually strong emphasis on gastronomy. The resort offers more than a dozen restaurants alongside numerous bars, lounges, and cafés. Dining options range from contemporary Mexican fine dining and steak restaurants to Italian, Japanese, seafood, Mediterranean, and international cuisine. One of the standout venues is María Dolores by Edgar Núñez, the signature restaurant led by one of Mexico’s most highly regarded chefs.

The main swimming pool is one of the largest in the region, with extensive loungers, Bali beds, swim up areas, and direct access to several bars and restaurants. There are also quieter pool areas reserved for Inspira guests.

The beach frontage is wide and well maintained, with waiter service available directly to loungers and cabanas. The sea conditions are generally calmer than some parts of Cancún, making it suitable for swimming.

The NUUP Spa is a major feature of the resort and includes hydrotherapy facilities, treatment rooms, beauty services, relaxation areas, steam rooms, and wellness programmes. There is also a fully equipped gym with Technogym equipment, yoga and fitness classes, and outdoor activity programmes.

Additional facilities include tennis courts, nearby golf access at Playa Mujeres Golf Club, boutique shopping, live evening entertainment, cocktail lounges, coffee shops, and 24 hour in room dining. The resort also integrates technology heavily into the guest experience through its dedicated app and digital concierge services.

ATELIER Playa Mujeres offers a wide range of suites, many with golf course or Caribbean Sea views. All accommodation is spacious and contemporary in style, with large bathrooms, rainfall showers, freestanding bathtubs in many categories, furnished terraces or balconies, premium minibars, Nespresso machines, smart TVs, and high quality bedding.

Junior Suites form the lead in category and are available with either king or two queen beds. These suites feature sitting areas, oversized bathrooms, and either golf course, ocean, or partial ocean views.

Junior Suite Swim Out categories provide direct access to a semi private swim out pool from the terrace, making them particularly popular for couples wanting more privacy and outdoor space.
