Mexico Couple Getaway
This fourteen night journey through Mexico is designed for couples who want a relaxed beach stay with a small number of well chosen sightseeing days included. It combines an adults only resort in Costa Mujeres with a second week in the Riviera Maya, giving you a comfortable base to enjoy the coast while also visiting some of the region’s best known Mayan sites.
Costa Mujeres
Begin with seven nights at Secrets Playa Blanca Costa Mujeres, an adults only resort set on a long stretch of beach north of Cancún. The resort is known for its spacious layout, calm atmosphere and strong dining offering, making it a good fit for couples who want a relaxed stay rather than a busy resort environment.
Staying in a Junior Suite Swim Out gives you direct access to a shared pool from your terrace, so you can step straight into the water without heading to the main pool areas. The all inclusive plan covers all meals, drinks and à la carte dining across the resort, with several restaurants, bars and a large spa available on site. Evenings tend to centre on dining and lounges rather than late night entertainment.
One day is set aside for a guided visit to Chichen Itza, a natural freshwater swimming hole known as a cenote, and the town of Valladolid. It is an early start, but it is a straightforward way to see one of Mexico’s most important archaeological sites, with time also spent swimming and walking through a traditional colonial town.
Riviera Maya
After a private transfer south, spend the next seven nights at The Fives Beach Hotel and Residences. This resort is known for its larger accommodation style, wide choice of restaurants and long beachfront close to Playa del Carmen, which suits a longer stay.
You will stay in a one bedroom penthouse residence, offering separate living space alongside the bedroom. The all inclusive plan includes access to the resort’s restaurants, pools and beachfront areas, giving you flexibility to spend your time on site or head out on day trips when you choose.
A guided day trip to Tulum, Cobá and Aldea Maya is included during this part of the stay. The day covers coastal ruins, jungle sites and lunch, offering a clear look at different Mayan locations without needing to arrange transport.

This seven night stay in Puglia is designed for couples who want a coastal base with simple, hands on experiences included. Staying in Polignano a Mare keeps you close to the sea, historic streets and local restaurants, with easy access to nearby towns such as Bari. The focus is on enjoying the area at a comfortable pace, with a mix of time on your own and a small number of organised activities that add to the stay.
