I saw this resort in January 24 when it was under constuction during my daily morning walks, when we stayed at Secrets Mujeres. And we are looking forward beeing at Playa Blanca resort starting on 8th of December this winter.😇😍
The biggest difference is the room locations. Preferred are the 4 buildings closest to the ocean. You get upgraded toiletries, a beach bag, and usually a bottle of bubbles in your room. If I remember correctly, I think there is also an additional breakfast restaurant for preferred. There's also a preferred pool, bar, and lounge. Either way you go though you'll have a great time!
this resort just came on my radar for our anniversary trip next april. i've seen videos that the resort isn't done yet and to wait. do you expect they should be good to go next year
As far as I know everything is complete now. The gym and spa opened shortly after our visit and appear to be amazing. It is definitely a really nice resort!
This is a great video! My wife and I have similiar tastes in resort stays. We are going in December. What do you recommend for tipping? In the past, we would tip a dollar or two for each service interaction and then a bigger tip at the end of our stay for the butler. What are your thoughts?
Hey Mike stay tuned to the channel we are currently working on a video all about tipping at an all inclusive. We hope to have it out by the end of the week. It will cover how we budget and prepare for tipping during our stay.
We loved the service we got at the preferred club lounge and pool! The Asian restaurant was my fav. I'm not a huge fan of seafood but they had a banana roll at the hibachi table that was amazing! We visited a second evening and had a regular table and talked them into making me one even though it's only on the menu for the reserved just tables.
It's possible they weren't fully up to capacity from opening. There was zero wait times for tables at dinner. A couple of mornings we had to wait for a table at the buffet but nothing more than 5 to 10 minutes.
Once the vegetation and tress are more mature, this resort wiill be beautiful.
Great video, yall!! That resort looks beautiful!
Loved your vid. Great insight. Happy holidays 😘PS ..... you mentioned "Mexican Candy Shots" ... what were they??? Intrigued 😁
Thanks!! Happy holidays to you as well! I don't recall what the Mexican candy shots had but they were kinda fruity. I think it was watermelon🤤
@@ReedsReelReviews Thanks so much, will definitely try, they sound delicious 😄🥰😘
It seems that they took the best features of a couple of the Secrets and incorporated it in this build .
We will have to go back here in the next few years! 🌴🇲🇽❤️
You had me at espresso martini

That's exciting!! You're going to have an amazing time!! We've not been to Mujeres so you'll have to let us know how they compare!
@ReedsReelReviews I will let you know, for sure.🙋 Greetings from Germany
Thank u for this tour! Do they have a date on when they'll open the fitness center?
Thanks! The fitness center opened about a week after we left 👍
We booked here for the holidays! Great video of all the details of the resort! Would you recommend preferred?
Thank you!! If we were to book it all over again we would still book preferred.... Either way though, it's an amazing resort!
Hey coming in June what’s the difference with the preferred room and not preferred ?

Looking forward to our trip in January, booked a preferred club suite. What was your favorite thing about the resort?
We loved the service we got at the preferred club lounge and pool! The Asian restaurant was my fav. I'm not a huge fan of seafood but they had a banana roll at the hibachi table that was amazing! We visited a second evening and had a regular table and talked them into making me one even though it's only on the menu for the reserved just tables.
It seems low occupancy for summer .
It's possible they weren't fully up to capacity from opening. There was zero wait times for tables at dinner. A couple of mornings we had to wait for a table at the buffet but nothing more than 5 to 10 minutes.
No Secrets rersort does the towwel animals. Jetted tub.
Good to know! We're more familiar with Excellence resorts ☺️
