Choosing this option just means there’s a little more planning and paperwork to complete.

9. What Brides and Grooms Said
I cannot begin to say how much I loved planning my wedding here. I’ve reviewed this resort in the past, so I will not review it again, my opinion is the same. I love it. I wanted to hop on here and shout out the wedding planning department as I planned this wedding from America during the pandemic. BRYANDA was amazing and responsive to all my messages, no matter how dumb the question was. She worked so hard and truly made the day special…The venue was beautiful the ceremony was short and sweet. The gifts provided were a nice unexpected touch. I also thoroughly enjoyed my massage, and my hair and makeup were on point. Thank you to the Renova spa staff for making me feel my best.

Selected this hotel for a wedding and family vacation this past January. We like the way the hotels are set up in Playa Mujeres (hôtel site, à natural zone, and beach section) as this provides a more natural environment. The wedding organizer, ITZEL, did an awesome job. Very proactive prior to our arrival and were always reassuring on the various aspect of our celebration. On the special day, everywhere we went, she made sure everything was ready for us.
