Have you heard of Devossion by Live Aqua Playa del Carmen? 👀
I recently had the opportunity to spend 3 nights there, and I had such a great stay!
This adults-only, all-inclusive resort has 314 rooms and is in a fantastic location right in Playa del Carmen, with easy access to Fifth Avenue, shopping, restaurants, and everything happening around town. The resort is easy to navigate, with beautiful ocean views and a really fun, relaxed atmosphere.
One of the things I loved most was how much was happening throughout the day. We participated in a sake tasting, a martini-making class, bingo, and there were fun little pop-up events happening in the lobby every day. One afternoon there was a crepe station, while another evening featured w**e and charcuterie. There was always something different going on!
Around lunchtime, there were roving margarita and mojito carts by the pool. One of my favorite Devossion traditions was the daily 1:26 PM ch*****ne toast. Such a fun touch!
We also ate very well! The food throughout our stay was great, and Nami, the sushi restaurant, was definitely a favorite. Fresh sushi, great drinks, and plenty of options throughout the resort made dining a highlight of the trip.
The staff was wonderful and incredibly attentive. We had one rain shower during our stay, and I couldn't believe how quickly the team had the resort completely dried off and reset afterward. The service really stood out from beginning to end.
The pool area was a favorite place to spend the afternoon, with gorgeous ocean views, drinks arriving regularly, and plenty of opportunities to relax. I also loved being able to walk the beach and then head right into Playa del Carmen when we felt like exploring.
While I was there, we also had the opportunity to learn more about the new Devossion by Live Aqua Isla Mujeres, which I'm very excited to see! This is a completely separate property from the one I stayed at in Playa del Carmen. Live Aqua is taking over and renovating the former Izla Hotel. The new adults-only Isla Mujeres resort will have 122 rooms, 12 restaurants and bars, 2 pools, and a spa.
After my stay, I can absolutely see this being a great choice for a couples getaway, girls' trip, birthday celebration, or quick adults-only escape to Mexico.
Now that I've experienced the resort firsthand, I can help you plan your own stay, from choosing the right room to arranging flights, transfers, and all the details along the way.
Who's ready for a few days of sunshine, sushi, margaritas, and ch*****ne in Playa del Carmen?
