Who says you can't have it all? SLS is ready to make a serious splash with the upcoming debut of its first all-inclusive resort, SLS Playa Mujeres, set on Mexico's spectacular Yucatán Peninsula. Opening November 15, 2024, the resort will bring SLS's subversive spirit and immersive extravagance to life at an unprecedented scale, refining all-inclusive travel and emerging as a glittering destination brimming with world-class dining, entertainment and wellness experiences. SLS Playa Mujeres will be a veritable wonderland, offering 498 lavishly appointed rooms and suites, 18 distinctive restaurant and bar concepts, exceptional destination spa and three outdoor pools, pristine private beach and marina, dedicated kids' zones, and an expansive events center culminating in a 905 sqm ballroom. All inclusive? SLS is going all in.

The verdant, natural coastline of Playa Mujeres serves as the enviable backdrop to the resort's 498 rooms and suites, each with a private balcony, terrace or garden with swim-out pool. Guestrooms are set across 16 categories, ranging from the 50 sqm Delight Guestroom to the 560 sqm 3-bedroom The Envy Suite, as well as the all-new Elite category, which grants guests exclusive access to VIP dining and entertainment experiences, as well as an array of bespoke amenities and benefits. Inviting guests to bid farewell to the ordinary, each guestroom is designed with a luxurious yet playful aesthetic, complemented by the vibrant colors of the surrounding Chacmuchuch Nature Reserve and the sparkling Caribbean Sea beyond.

Rejecting the staid, high-volume culinary concepts typically tied to all-inclusive experiences, Playa Mujeres will welcome 18 exquisite culinary and mixology venues, including the much-loved marquee destinations Fi'lia, Cleo and Privilege, familiar to long-standing SLS-fans and regulars. Menus showcase a range of cuisines including Greek, French, Japanese and Mexican, with an array of palette-piquing flavors matched only by the mix of atmospheres on-hand: from a Mediterranean beach club and a hidden cocktail bar to fine dining and poolside fare - there are options to indulge every taste, mood and occasion.

Entertainment is key to the SLS experience and is amplified at Playa Mujeres, seamlessly woven throughout the resort to create unforgettable moments; whether that's a family movie in the state-of-the-art cinema, head-turning cabaret, or perfectly curated beats that carry halcyon sunny days into nights spent dancing under endless star-studded skies. For younger guests, there are dedicated areas designed specifically for each age group from toddlers to teens and complemented by a thoughtful programme of extraordinary experiences characterized by the playful SLS spirit. And while the kids are building sandcastles using Mayan architectural principles or carving out the first steps of a future DJ career, adults are free to escape to the blissful Ciel spa, a serene 1,890 sqm space featuring thermal baths, 20 treatment rooms, tranquil outdoor pool, salon and a state-of-the-art gym.

At SLS, even the meeting spaces are designed to delight, and Playa Mujeres takes things to the next level. A lavish alternative to cookie-cutter conference and events venues, the property will offer 2217 sqm of customizable event space with seven flexible rooms suited to everything from conferences and presentations to chic cocktail receptions and celebrations for up to 920 guests. For anyone looking to take blue sky thinking a little more literally, there is an outdoor theater that lends a tropical flair to the TED talk. And when the balmy, jasmine-scented air turns thoughts to romance, the resort is perfectly placed to host dreamy wedding experiences; from ceremonies on the sugar-white sands to candle-lit rehearsal dinners and stylish bridal brunches set amid tropical gardens. Throw in myriad opportunities for water and land sports, as well as yacht excursions from the private marina, and SLS has the ultimate wedding experience-from bachelor and bachelorette party to honeymoon bliss-all wrapped up in inimitable style.

Just a few miles north of Cancún, Playa Mujeres is a private gated waterfront community on the continental coast of Isla Mujeres. One of the most desirable coastlines in the Mexican Caribbean, it offers uncrowded white-sand beaches, tropical rainforest environment, and easy access to the Great Mayan Reef - the second largest in the world - via the resort's marina. The area's lush natural flora also frames the Playa Mujeres Golf Club, an ecologically friendly championship 18-hole golf course designed by Greg Norman and located just five minutes away from the hotel. Intrepid adventurers can also discover the rich history and culture of the Mayan civilization with day trips to ancient Mayan sites of Chichen Itza, Tulum or Coba.

Since the opening of its first property, SLS Beverly Hills, in 2008, SLS has continued to break the mold of luxury hospitality; standing as a place to see and be seen, and the home of opulent interiors and unexpected experiences. These distinctive hallmarks of the brand have been the driving force behind its successful expansion, guiding it towards new frontiers in some of the world's most glamorous destinations including Miami, Dubai, Buenos Aires, and Bahamas. The upcoming opening of SLS Playa Mujeres is a key milestone for the brand, marking SLS's first strut into the all-inclusive resort experience.

SLS Playa Mujeres is part of Ennismore's ALL Inclusive Collection, a digital platform that allows guests to discover a highly curated selection of all-inclusive resorts in some of the world's most exciting destinations. The platform brings together over 35 breathtaking resorts, challenging the historical perception of all-inclusive holidays by creating memorable luxury experiences with exceptional and varied culinary offers and high-quality entertainment.
