Dreams Playa Mujeres Review 2025: My Honest Experience, Full Resort Breakdown & Wedding Guide by Diana

If you’re searching for an honest review of Dreams Playa Mujeres Golf & Spa Resort, you’re in the right place. I recently visited this stunning all-inclusive resort in Playa Mujeres with my family to celebrate my birthday and this trip gave me the perfect blend of luxury, fun, relaxation, and family-friendly comfort.

Here is everything you need to know before booking Dreams Playa Mujeres, including rooms, food, pools, activities, and a full Dreams Playa Mujeres wedding venue guide.

Location: The Luxury of Playa Mujeres

Dreams Playa Mujeres is located inside the exclusive gated community of Playa Mujeres, just north of Cancun. This area is known for its private, upscale feel, calm beaches, and gorgeous natural surroundings. If someone in your group loves golf, the resort sits beside a stunning Greg Norman golf course, a huge bonus.

Arrival & First Impressions

The moment we stepped into the open air lobby, we were welcomed with immediate hospitality and a breathtaking view of the ocean in the background. It sets the tone for your entire stay… clean, glamorous, tropical, and serene. The grounds were immaculate and everything just felt high end. 

Since we booked Preferred Club, check-in was fast and personalized inside the private lounge.

Preferred Club Ocean View Suite Review

We stayed in a Preferred Club Ocean View Suite, and honestly, it was perfect for a family of four.

Room Highlights:

  • Spacious layout
  • Beautiful, clean design
  • Comfortable for families
  • Incredible ocean views from the balcony

If you’re debating between room categories, this upgrade is worth it… especially with kids.

Pools at Dreams Playa Mujeres: So Many Options

This resort has a lot of pools, and each offers something different.

Quiet Pool: Peaceful, relaxing, perfect for morning coffee or a mid-day nap.

Energy Pool: Still calm enough for lounging but with a fun vibe.

Main Entertainment Pool: Music, games, and activities all day long.

Swim-Up Bars (Three!): A major win for adults who want convenience.

Lazy River (Preferred Club Only): A family favorite… relaxing, refreshing, and exclusive to Preferred guests.

Tip:
If you want cabanas or premium lounge chairs, secure them early. The pool concierges were incredible and can reserve spots for you first thing in the morning. On my birthday, they even surprised me with a decorated cabana and a giant Happy Birthday sign made out of sand. SO sweet.

Dining at Dreams Playa Mujeres: What to Expect

There is truly something for everyone here.

Hibachi- Our Favorite: The hibachi restaurant books within minutes.
Reservations open daily around 1 PM, and you need to grab one FAST.

Mexican & Mediterranean- Both were fantastic and great service.

The Buffet (Breakfast Winner!): Fresh, diverse, and perfect for families. We ate here every morning.

Preferred Club Lounge: Such a hidden gem. Daily ceviche, snacks, drinks, and a quieter environment… so good.

Poolside Dining: Service was quick, and the casual menu made lunch effortless.

Overall, Dreams Playa Mujeres has strong dining for an all-inclusive resort, especially if you mix buffet, hibachi and the other restaurants, and the Preferred Club lounge.

Activities, Entertainment & Kids Features

This is one of the main reasons Dreams Playa Mujeres is so popular with families.

Daily activities: Pool games, fitness classes, water sports, and entertainment.

Dolphin habitat on property: We did the swim with dolphins, and it was such a memorable experience. It’s pricey but worth it and the convenience of having it right on the resort is unmatched.

Kids Club + Water Park: My 4-year-old loved it. Safe, clean, fun, and perfect for younger kids.

Nightly music & shows: There isn’t a nightclub right now (it was under renovation during our trip), but the nightly DJ in the lobby, the fire show, and the big outdoor BBQ event made up for it.

Gym Review

The fitness center is split into two rooms – one for weights and one for cardio. It’s not the most luxurious gym I’ve seen, but it has what you need for a solid workout.
