Dreams Playa Mujeres

Playa Mujeres, Mexico

Star rating

The hotel

Experience the two sides of Cancun in one luxurious hotel — the beauty of the beach and the life and soul of Mexico’s ultimate party mecca. Along a private sweep of sands, tiered lagoons spill down the centre of Dreams Playa Mujeres, with three main pools, a children’s pool and six hot tubs, a waterpark, and a mini-splash park... all making this the definitive aqua paradise. Relaxation also comes in the form of the adventures of the kids’ and teens’ clubs, and the indulgence of 10 restaurants, with 24-hour dining on the table. But this is Cancun, so the party’s never far. The fun of downtown’s approximately an hour away and, before you head out, you’ve got 13 bars and lounges to sip at, and live entertainment from stage shows to beach parties.

My stay at Dreams was unfortunately far below expectations. The resort felt empty and lacked any real atmosphere or nightlife, which made the experience dull. The biggest disappointment, however, was the food. This was some of the worst food I’ve ever had in Mexico, it didn’t even feel like I was in Mexico, where the cuisine is usually excellent. Much of the food was buffet‑style and consistently poor in quality. The only reliably good option on the entire property was the ice cream at Dolce, which ended up being what we lived on for most of the weekend. It’s unfortunate to rely on ice cream at an all‑inclusive resort you pay good money for. The Brazilian steakhouse was especially disappointing. The meat was either extremely dry and overcooked or so undercooked it had to be sent back, and the seasoning was strange and unbalanced. We noticed other guests around us having similar reactions. The servers, however, were wonderful, attentive, kind, and genuinely trying to make the experience better but the food quality was simply not there. We even visited the sister resort hoping for better options, but their food and bars were also well below par. In‑room dining was another low point. Our first order, a Caesar salad and fruit, arrived with wilted lettuce and pineapple so discolored that even the server advised us not to eat it. When we tried again later in the trip, the burger we received didn’t taste like real meat and was inedible. On top of that, the phone in our room didn’t work, making it difficult to contact the front desk or order room service. It took three separate reports before the issue was finally fixed. The spa was one of the few bright spots. The facilities were clean, relaxing, and well‑maintained, and the customer service was excellent. My Swedish massage was solid, I’d rate it a B+ but my friend’s deep tissue massage was disappointing and earned a C, so the quality seemed inconsistent between therapists. Overall, while the staff in certain areas were kind and tried their best, the resort experience as a whole was significantly below expectations. The food quality, lack of energy, and multiple service issues made this one of the most disappointing all‑inclusive stays I’ve had in Mexico. Read less
