I have visited the Majestic Properties in Punta Cana before and loved them, so when I went to look and stay at this property, I was already going in with high expectations. Unlike a lot of resorts, this one truly has an adult-only section - which is perfect for those who want a destination wedding with an adult-only section but allows kids on property as well.
It also boasts a spot in my Top 5 Spas for Mexico as well!
Majestic Elegance Costa Mujeres Beach
Majestic Elegance Costa Mujeres – What to expect?
Mexico occupied the position as the most happening destination for Majestic Resorts in 2019 with the launch of Majestic Costa Mujeres. Tourists who hunt for sophisticated yet luxurious gateway find it when they reach the Majestic. This 570-room all-inclusive resort is a play to vacay with hundreds of facilities and services on board.
No matter if you are a Caribbean lover or a first-timer at Costa Mujeres beach in Mexico's Yucatán Peninsula, you will instantly fall in love with this five-star resort standing in the middle of a breathtaking landscape. However, let us specify that this resort is adult-oriented as nearly 70% of the rooms are dedicated to adults-only (located in their Elegance Club) and the rest are for the families located in their family section.
Before we begin with reviewing Majestic Resort Costa Mujeres, let us discuss a few details regarding its location and the climate. Located in the southern region of Cancun, Majestic Elegance Costa Mujeres is almost 35 kilometers drive away from the Cancun International Airport. Beaches with wide sandy stretches and turquoise blue waters are the crown jewels of Playa Mujeres that are on an ideal location - 20 minutes away from Cancun Downtown and only a few minutes’ drive away from the Punta Sam Ferry Terminal.
As far as the climate goes, the southeastern coast of Mexico sees tropical weather all year round. The temperature lies between 75° to 91° from April to September and 68° to 86° Fahrenheit from October to March.
What attractions can you find near Costa Mujeres Majestic?
This truly is an ideal place to land in the Yucatan peninsula as this area exhibits a perfect balance between natural bliss and rich Mayan history. Costa Mujeres beach houses several underwater caves or cenotes and the second-largest barrier reef in the world so your visit will be incomplete without snorkeling and scuba diving trips. To make your trip even more memorable, do plan one-day trips to nearby ancient Mayan cities as there are many around such as Coba, Tulum, and Chichen Itza. If you are into golfing, Greg Norman Signature Golf Course is also worth exploring in Playa Mujeres. You can also plan for yachting or deep-sea fishing.
What do we mean by all-inclusive?
By an all-inclusive resort, we want to say that the price you pay to book your resort includes the charges for your stay, unlimited drinks and food, entertainment, airport transfers, gratuities, and other activities. Airfare is not included in this price.
Majestic Elegance Costa Mujeres never bothers its guests with surprise charges. However, the common exclusions that you can expect are off-site excursions, spa treatments, purchases at the resort shop, and other premium activities.
Now, to make the most of your all-inclusive package, find out what the resort offers you by going through the fine print of the package. If the resort is charging you for unlimited scuba diving during your stay, do take advantage of the opportunity as much as you can as it happens to be a pricey one and you are going to pay for it no matter what. Keep the same strategy for foods and drinks as well. If you don't plan to eat within the resort premises most of the time during your stay, don't book an all-inclusive for you. Trust us, when you travel, top-shelf liquors and all-you-can-eat buffets are what make your time the best. Majestic Costa Mujeres includes them both in its all-inclusive package.
