Secrets Moxché Playa del Carmen: The Riviera Maya all-inclusive that feels anything but ordinary

17 September 2026

There are all-inclusive resorts where everything you need is conveniently in one place, and then there are resorts where exploring the hotel becomes part of the holiday itself. Secrets Moxché Playa del Carmen very much falls into the latter camp. This adults-only retreat on Mexico’s Riviera Maya brings together contemporary design, 485 suites, an impressive collection of restaurants and bars, and some far less expected touches. Think cenote-style pools hidden amongst stone and greenery, an interior lagoon beach, rooftop swimming, taco tastings, and a nightclub you need to know how to find. Better still, Playa del Carmen’s famous Fifth Avenue is around ten minutes away by car when you do feel like venturing beyond the resort.

7 cool-cations for an unforgettable autumn escape

28 August 2026

Summer might get most of the attention, but autumn can be one of the most rewarding times of year to travel.
