Last month my husband celebrated his 40th birthday. I love celebrating birthdays so I planned a fun weekend at Atelier Playa Mujeres. If you are not familiar with this adults-only/all-inclusive resort you need to put it on your radar. It’s a beautiful resort located about 30 minutes north of Cancun.
Prior to this trip, my husband was not a big all-inclusive resort person. To be fair, he had only been to one resort. Years ago, he decided all-inclusive resorts were not his thing. However, he agreed to give it one more shot and visit Atelier for his birthday.
I’m happy to report, my husband very much enjoyed his time at Atelier. We spent time at the beach, spa, sitting on our balcony and enjoying all the food/drinks. It was a great weekend to relax and celebrate.
I asked my husband what he liked about Atelier and he gave me a list. Here are a few of the things he liked about the resort.
Service. The service throughtout the resort was excellent. In our room, our fridge was not working. We made one call and within ten minutes the fridge was replaced with a new one. Also, my husband was never without a drink. He REALLY liked the beach service.
Food. We ate at four different restaurants. All were very good. We really enjoyed sitting at the sushi bar. The sushi maker and my husband became friends.
Beach. We lounged at the beach every day. Although, we never got in the water we enjoyed the clean/safe beach.
Room. The bed was very comfortable. Sometimes the first night at a hotel is the worst. Not the case, we both slept great.
Birthday decorations. I paid for birthday decorates to be in our room. It was a nice surprise for my husband. It made him smile when we walked in our decorated room.
At the end of the trip I asked my husband if he would go back with me. He said…definitely.
