TRS Coral is the adults-only half of the Palladium complex at Costa Mujeres, with about 454 suites. It suits couples who want a quiet, adults-only wedding, or who host a family wedding next door at Grand Palladium and stay here themselves. Plan the ceremony about 90 minutes before sunset.
TRS Coral gives couples a choice most resorts cannot: an adults-only base with a family resort through the gate. Some couples marry here with an adults-only guest list; others hold the wedding at Grand Palladium, where children are welcome, and keep TRS Coral as their quiet retreat. This guide covers the photography side of both.
The Resort at a Glance
- ResortAdults-only, by Palladium Hotel Group
- SizeAbout 454 suites, per current listings
- Next doorGrand Palladium Costa Mujeres, sharing a central village
- GuestsNo children under 17
- Beach facesEast, toward Isla Mujeres
Venue names and capacities come from the resort's wedding listings and change with renovations and packages, so your coordinator's current sheet is the final word.
Where the Ceremony Happens
TRS Coral's wedding options are coordinated with the wider Palladium complex, so ask the wedding team for the current venues on the TRS side and in Grand Palladium. For an adults-only wedding, we look for a beach spot on the TRS Coral side, where the background stays calm and uncluttered.
If children are invited, hold the events in Grand Palladium: couples' planning pages note that children under 17 cannot enter TRS Coral. Getting-ready photos in a TRS suite and a ceremony next door work perfectly; we simply plan the walk between them into the timeline.

The beach faces east toward the channel and Isla Mujeres, so the sun sets behind the resort and the sand falls into soft, even light at the end of the day, with no glare in anyone's eyes. Plan the ceremony for roughly 90 minutes before sunset; the portraits then land in the softest light of the day. Mornings have a bonus: from roughly October through February, the sun comes up from behind Isla Mujeres, across the water.
Bringing Your Own Photographer
One budget line couples often miss: TRS Coral, like nearly every all-inclusive resort here, charges outside wedding vendors for access to the property. It may be a fixed vendor fee or a per-person day pass, and it changes with the season and the package tier. Ask for it in writing while your contract is still open, and ask whether a second photographer counts separately. Our comparison of resort and outside photographers helps you weigh it.
