- In this short video, I give a quick comparison of Atelier Playa Mujeres versus Excellence Playa Mujeres. If I had to choose, I would return to Excellence Playa Mujeres but both had good qualities! Finding an All Inclusive Resort in Cancun can definitely be overwhelming so I hope this video helps! At the end of this month, I will be going to Secrets Playa Mujeres and will be doing a full comparison review on all three!. Please ask any questions about either of these Adults All Inclusive Resorts in the comments! #cancun #allinclusive #travel

Thank you this video was so helpful. I’m thinking about booking the new Excellence Coral resort. Watching your comparison makes me think that I will enjoy it more at excellence.
Is it open yet?
I think it opens February 2025
I appreciate your honest reviews! I quite enjoyed my stays at atelier. I loved the rooms, the pools, and the drinks. All very top notch. I agree the food did not blow me away, I think I enjoyed the fried whole fish for lunch, and their Mexican restaurant had very good tamales, but everything else was really difficult for me to eat, personally! I always had impeccable service, but they had events going on both times we were there! Staff is definitely a bit stressed, but they are very kind and I loved them all. Now to decide between Excellence and Live Aqua ❤
Ty for watching!!
NAILED IT. This review perfectly sums up the strengths of each resort. Besides your list, I also like Atelier's buffet restaurant open breakfast lunch and dinner. Far and away our favorite place to eat, no reservation needed AND we thought our meals there were better than the restaurants including the steak house. At 3:40 -- that's my man Fidencio up in the EPM EC lounge. He's there bright and early serving up my breakfast tequila. While I am not a pool person, what I love about EPM / EC around Christmas is the club pools are heated. One more EPM favorite --- the wood fired pizza next to the outdoor bar near bldg 9. Nice young lady making them fresh and she knows what to do when I ask her to "burn it".
Thank you!!!
I also prefer exelence over atelier, this is closer and you don't have to struggle walking a lot
Yes!!!
Excellence Playa Mujeres in December, our twentieth all-inclusive. We have been to all the Palace Resorts, including Le Blanc four times. We liked both Valentin and Iberostar Grand Palacio, so really looking forward to Club level!
Omg I can’t wait to hear about it!
Sub'ed and watched this before we went to Atelier. Now just came back from Atelier to watch this video again. Your review is 1000% spot on! 😮😀 Any chance doing Secret Blanca next?
Thank you!! We were actually supposed to go there but got rerouted to Hyatt Ziva. I think they are renovating
@@3Days3Noches can't wait until you posting review near future!
I have been to Ateliers twice, Your comments regarding them I agree with, Never done Excellenece put will put it on my to do list. I am beach person as well.
I think you will love it!
Excellence is nice but I appreciate the room layout of Atelier over most Caribbean resorts I’ve visited, where the bathroom is too close or connected to the bedroom. Nothing romantic about being in bed and hearing water from the sink or toilets flushing. 😊
Atelier Inspira is expensive, but the butler service is world class.
Omg I know!!! I do hate that about some resorts. But the beach is more important lol
Here at EPM now! 3rd time in 1 year, wife and I absolutely love it. We love it as there’s a decent night scene, and a “party”pool / a quiet side if you wana just relax, little bit of something for everyone☺️
Yes! It’s the first resort that has almost everything I love!
@@3Days3Noches makes it so difficult to go somewhere else when you know it’s going to be amazing time and time again hahah, the staff truly goes above and beyond to make sure your trip is nothing short of exceptional
@sdmfsdmfn it does!! Especially if you don’t know what to expect
What I have noticed is all those resorts in that area are pretty damm good! Each resort seems to have one standout thing over the other resorts, but with excellence they pretty much do everything well above average!
I agree!!!
Agree!! Been to EPM 8 times now and keep coming back. Went to Atelier once just before their fire and how absolutely horribly they handled the guests during and months after - not going there again. We have the new Secrets Playa Blanca booked this fall so really excited to see your upcoming review!!
Omg I love it! I hear Playa Blanca is amazing.
@@3Days3Noches Just realized when I rewatched your review that you’re going to SPM not SPB. Not sure if you heard, but SPM is going to be closing for a full makeover April 15 2025 to Dec 15 2025. So doing a review on SPM now wouldn’t have much longevity - maybe opportunity to switch to the new SPB?
@EmptyPocketsCarl I did hear that!! It’s a sponsored trip actually so I think they are trying to get some final pushes before lol!!
Watching! ☺️ Love your reviews.
Now its a toss up between epm and Hyatt Ziva. Cant wait for that video. Im with you on the beach being a big priority but food is also a huge priority because i have restrictions. We need options! seafood and sushi is a must ,gluten free dairy free and organic meats if i can get it. Do you know if epm has any of those options?
Gonna go over and watch your EPM video now
Yes they have gluten free! No organic meats though.
In your videos you mention upgrading your room. Would it possible making a video about upgrading room. Do you book a head of time or wait till you get to the resorts. Tips and tricks
Okay good idea! I’ve done both. By waiting you run the risk of no availability but sometimes get a better deal. Especially if you bring cash 🤣
Hey there, I love your reviews and the information you provide. Since I started following you and your videos, which was back in Feb 2023, I have been to the Riviera Maya/Cancun area three times and used Nacho Tours each time.
I visited Barcelo Maya Caribe twice (March 2023 and March 2024 and just returned from Secrets Playa Blanca Costa Mujeres June 01, 2024).
You’ll love Secrets, make sure you visit the Social Pool and have Carlos serve you, you’ll love him. The entertainment team was great, the food was very enjoyable, but make sure you order multiple items, as their servings are on the lighter side (but they’ll definitely serve what you order, so just remember that). Our favorite restaurant was the Himitsu Restaurant (especially the Tepanyaki Hibachi Table) which requires reservations).
Nacho tours is so friendly and so accommodating, they even provide cold corona upon request!!!!
Thanks for everything, as I’m looking forward to my next Mexico vacation.

She said she was going to Secrets Playa Mujeres, not the Playa Blanca Costa property.
@ashleys4652 yes!
Thank you so much!!!! Can’t wait to update everyone!
@@ashleys4652 my screw up, but I’m sure they’re both nice
@@brianteeter8796 Yes, but I think the Secrets property you went to is even nicer as it's pretty new and modern. I just want to try them all. 😉
I am not an Excellence fan. Had big hopes for the brand in general after a lot of research and it was extremely underwhelming. Hoping Atelier is more similar to Unico 20°87 than Excellence!
Awwww! So sorry
hi , thank you for your videos that you put out, they have been helpful , you mentioned in one of your video that you once used a Travel agent , i would love to use one but need help finding a reputable TA , can you share some tips in finding one or can you recommend on ?
Sure! Email me! 3days3noches@gmail.com
Fully fully agree with you! Memories and Mojitos overrated Atelier
They are very generous with Travel Agents so they love sending people there!!
I’ve been looking through your channel. I don’t know if you’ve done a review of Hyatt Ziva. I narrowed it down to excellence or that resort. Trying to see which one to pick out of the two? Tho

Thanks for the review, as I am looking at going back to Cancun later this year. I have only been to Atelier - the one and only time I have been to Cancun - so I can't compare resorts. That being said, I liked the low-key, quiet vibe at Atelier. I'm more of a pool person and loved the quiet pool near Building 3 and only spent a couple of hours at the beach in the kayaks. The best restaurants, at least in my opinion, were El Suspiro for seafood and Los Brazos, the steakhouse. The rest of the food was definitely good, but I was also slightly disappointed with the Italian restaurant. One of the best perks is the wine and cheese tasting on the terrace between 5 and 8 pm - excellent variety if you are a wine drinker. The mattresses were also among the most comfortable I have slept on in a hotel or resort.
Love this!!!! Ty
Have you been to Royalton splash, Riviera Maya?
I haven’t! The beach isn’t great there I heard
Do you think it will be a good time to go there this July? I read that there are not many hurricanes but I wanted to ask
Yes it isn’t the best but still good. Maybe some seaweed but so hard to predict
Can you not just book an inspira (not sure how it's spelled) level room instead of trying to upgrade??
You can book Inspira. They recently had a deal on Inspira swim-ups.
Yes you can but there were none available when we booked
talk live on video with music in the background instead of talk over the video when you're back at home. your videos are too choppy and bounce around instead of showing more tour. there are way better channels that do a better job at reviews
Thanks for the feedback! I’m sorry you didn’t like it. Most people say it’s the best review. I actually do that for a few reasons. One because if there is any copyright music playing in the background YT flags it and the whole video is not eligible for monetization. And resorts always have music playing- also I’m there for a short time I like to immerse myself in the experience then come home and put it all together. I used to do walking tours but no one watched them 🤣.
