History
SLS Playa Mujeres is an all-inclusive luxury beachfront resort in Playa Mujeres, Cancún, and the brand describes it as the first all-inclusive resort in the SLS portfolio. The current official property pages emphasize swim-out rooms, rooftop jacuzzis, a private marina, four pools, a 20,000-square-foot Ciel Spa, and 17 chef-led restaurants and bars. Because those details were not available from authoritative sources, I have left them null rather than infer them.

The setting
SLS Playa Mujeres sits on Paseo Mujeres within the gated Playa Mujeres enclave, roughly ten kilometres north of Cancún's Hotel Zone on the Caribbean's continental coast facing Isla Mujeres. The private community controls 400 metres of uncrowded white-sand beach backed by tropical forest, with marina access to the Mesoamerican Barrier Reef — the second-largest coral system in the world. The Greg Norman-designed Playa Mujeres Golf Club is minutes away.
