4 Top Mexico Resorts with Adult Sections for Destination Wedding Groups
Planning a destination wedding in Mexico is exciting, but let’s be honest it can also feel overwhelming. One of the most common questions that couples planning a destination wedding in Mexico ask me is: “How do I keep my guests happy when some want family-friendly fun and others want adults-only luxury?”
The answer? Choosing a resort that offers the best of both worlds. Mexico has some incredible all-inclusive properties designed exactly for this—where families feel welcome, and adults can enjoy their own exclusive spaces. As an award-winning travel advisor and Brides magazine contributor, I’ve rounded up four of my favorite resorts that check every box for wedding groups.
1. Dreams Playa Mujeres (with Secrets Playa Mujeres next door)
Dreams Playa Mujeres is perfect if you’re inviting families but still want an upscale feel to a family-friendly stay. An added perk is that right next door Secrets Playa Mujeres, an adults-only property is located there that shares privileges. Guests with kids can stay at Dreams, while your child-free friends and family can escape to Secrets. Everyone can be together for the wedding, and can still enjoy their own vibe day-to-day.
2. Majestic Elegance Costa Mujeres
This resort offers a chic, modern design and a unique setup with dedicated adults-only areas. The resort features swim-up suites, private pools, and elevated dining for your adult guests, while families have plenty of options in their own sections. It’s a win-win that keeps the group together but ensures each guest feels catered to.
3. SLS Cancun Playa Mujeres
If your group leans more toward a chic and sophisticated aesthetic, SLS is a standout. It’s stylish, intimate, and gives off major “city-meets-beach” vibes which can be perfect for couples who want something a little different from the larger resort feel. While not exclusively adults-only, it’s tailored toward a chic, adult-friendly atmosphere that your sophisticated guests will love.
4. Hyatt Ziva Cancun (with Hyatt Zilara Cancun next door)
Hyatt Ziva Cancun is one of the most versatile options for wedding groups and is quite popular for this reason in the Cancun area. Families love its beachfront setting and kid-friendly amenities, but right next door is Hyatt Zilara Cancun, an adults-only escape. Guests can choose what suits them best, and you’ll have the confidence of Hyatt’s consistently high service standards backing your big day.
Why These Resorts Are Perfect for Wedding Groups
Choosing a resort with both family-friendly and adults-only options is a game changer for destination weddings for the following reasons:
-
They give you a strong guest list by appealing to everyone. Offering both family-friendly and adults-only options means no one feels left out.
-
They reduce RSVP stress because guests have choices that fit their needs. When people feel catered to, they’re more likely to say “yes” to attending.
-
They create a more memorable experience for your loved ones. Guests can enjoy their own style of vacation while still coming together to celebrate your big day.
-
They let you relax knowing every detail has been considered. With a resort that meets everyone’s preferences, you can focus on your wedding, not logistics.
