I have recently returned from the Riviera Maya and had a chance to visit several resorts. Secrets Moxche was our host resort and I have all good things to say about it. The resort is beautiful with several pools. One is a zero entry with sand and is very shallow and big. There are several more pools going towards the beach, smaller ones that are quieter and then ending up with another large main pool where they had live music and entertainment each day. Room décor was a lot of stone and natural wood, decent size balcony with a single lounger bed and a soaking tub. There was a Nespresso machine with coffee pods replenished each day. I liked the interior entrance vs outdoor at other resorts.Preferred Club rooms have access to a rooftop restaurant and pool. Guests also get a 30 minute head, hand, or chair massage in the spa during their stay. Food was really good and plenty of a la carte restaurants and no reservations required. The buffet was very large with 3 omelet stations, salad station, and a fresh tortilla making station with all the fillings.
I also visited Paradisus La Perla, Hard Rock Riviera Maya, Xcaret Mexico, Xcaret Arte, Impressions Isla Mujeres, Grand Velas Resort and Unico 20 87.
Impressions Isla Mujeres is a jaw dropping adult resort. We were the first group to tour the property. You have to take a boat or catamaran over, but that is provided with your stay. Right now, it is only from Cancun but they are going to have a water ride available from Playa Del Carmen in the future. You literally feel like you are in the Mediterranean or one of the islands of Greece. It is built up into a cliff and has stairs and 3 pools, one on each level. So intimate and just lovely. They do have a small but very nice Spa. They don’t have a set entertainment schedule but will have random pop up music and performers. They also have a large winding water slide starting at the top floor and curves down the cliff and right into the protected lagoon water. It is perfect for honeymooners, couples celebrating an anniversary, or just upscale clients looking for something new and different.
