SLS Playa Mujeres is the first all-inclusive resort in the SLS portfolio, and it doesn’t disappoint.
So I decided to visit to see if all of these things could be true at once.
Below, my full review of SLS Playa Mujeres.

The Rooms
The resort has 498 rooms across three categories: Delight, Captivate, and Euphoria.
Delight is the smallest, Captivate offers pool-side vibes, and Euphoria is all about the larger suite experience.
I stayed in a Captivate Swim Out room that was steps away from a river pool.

My bathroom was stocked with luxe Ortigia amenities and had a rainfall showerhead.
However, I did visit several restaurants with mindful portion sizes and delicious meals.
Caracol is a tangible celebration of Mexicos coastline, grilling fresh-off-the-boat seafood over an open flame.
I had the fish tacos and Mayan-style octopus tacos that were flavorful and the spices werent overpowering.
My breakfast at The Market Buffet, which serves an abundance of fresh options, was also very good.
I had chilaquiles and later sat poolside with a mouth-watering smoothie from Verde and Mediterranean-inspired meals from Twiggy.
Union,the resorts New York steakhouse, has top-notch menu options and features surprise performances from local dancers.
There are several bars to choose from for those who want a slice of nightlife as well.
I had a great time at the sports bar, Hudson Tavern.
The two-floor space had upbeat music, and people could dance or lounge at their own pace.
As a cinephile, I enjoyed the indoor and outdoor movie theater with snacks and plush seating.
The space offers programming for all ages, but you could pop in for the vibes alone.
I had an aromatherapy massage inspired by ancient Greece and spent some time in the spas thermal bath.
The spa features 20 treatment rooms, state-of-the-art movement and fitness facilities, CBD-infused therapies, and beauty services.
The private marina allows for easy access to Isla Mujeres and the world-renowned Great Mayan Reef.
