For couples photos in Costa Mujeres, Atelier gives you art and architecture, Excellence a wide pale beach, Beloved its private casitas and Secrets Playa Blanca a jungle rooftop.
Couples have the best choice on this coast, since many of the top resorts are adults-only. Each one offers a different kind of background. These are our favourites.
Our Picks
Atelier Playa Mujeres: editorial frames with art and architecture, for guests 16 and over.
Excellence Playa Mujeres: a wide, curving beach and rooftop terrace suites.
Beloved Playa Mujeres: casitas with plunge pools.
Secrets Playa Blanca: a jungle rooftop and an infinity terrace.
St. Regis Costa Mujeres: opened in June 2026, with about 163 rooms and suites.
The Light
Evenings here are soft rather than fiery, because the sun sets behind the resorts. Sunrise over the channel can be the star.

Costa Mujeres, Through Our Lens
