The Best Babymoon Resorts in Mexico

Dear Stressed-Out Mamas-to-Be: Here Are My Favorite Babymoon Spots in Mexico [Love Another New Mama]

Hey mama, I know you’re juggling a million things right now. Between doctor’s appointments, prepping the nursery [why is painting so hard?!], and making sure everything’s just right for your little one, there’s barely a moment for you [& an amazing nap]. So, if you’ve been dreaming of just one blissfully long weekend of peace (and maybe a massage or two), let’s make it happen! A babymoon is the perfect chance to rest, rejuvenate, and indulge—no to-do lists allowed.

During my second pregnancy, I flew to Mexico not once, but twice—purely for “research,” of course. Sure, I was scoping out the resorts for destination weddings, but let’s be real: pregnant-me had a checklist of slightly different priorities. Like, how close can I waddle to the pool? Are the mocktails delicious enough to make me forget the real thing? Does the aromatherapy actually smell amazing, or will it send me running? And don’t get me started on bathtub space and pillow options—those things are no joke!

Here are my top three all-inclusive resorts in Mexico, each one a slice of paradise where you can recharge before your sweet bundle arrives. Think dreamy ocean views, serene spas, and the coziest spots to relax, all with the ease of all-inclusives. Let’s dive in!

Atelier Playa Mujeres – For the Art-Loving Mama

Atelier Playa Mujeres is a stunner, and its relaxing vibe is everything you need right now. The resort has a chic, artsy aesthetic and a commitment to pampering their guests (especially moms-to-be). You can enjoy wellness treatments at their dreamy spa that are tailored for your comfort, with gentle massages and luxurious facials that will leave you feeling like a new person. The views? Absolute heaven—perfect for unwinding by the pool with a mocktail in hand.

And the best part? Atelier Playa Mujeres is known for its calm, quiet ambiance and their amazing aromatherapy. You can actually purchase it in the gift shop which I did because its THAT good even while pregnant. You’ll have plenty of space to relax, whether that’s in a private cabana on the beach or taking in the sunset from your room. It’s an all-inclusive experience that truly feels like a retreat.

Unico 20°87° – For the Mama Who Loves Luxe Comfort

If you’re looking for a place that’s both elegant and down-to-earth, Unico 20°87° might just be your dream babymoon spot. The whole vibe here is serene and adults-only, so it was pure tranquility. Located in the heart of Riviera Maya, this resort combines a laid-back vibe with top-notch luxury. Plus, there’s this cool cultural twist everywhere you look. The decor and art are inspired by local Mexican design, so it feels like a true getaway, not just another resort. 

The food was incredible— I thought I’d have to give up on anything fancy, but they have such a good variety, including tons of fresh, local flavors. They even have custom mocktails (just for us pregnant ladies!) that were honestly the highlight of my day.

Unico is amazing for babymoons because they really focus on wellness. Their spa offers prenatal massage services and even a relaxation circuit that’s just perfect for mamas who need a break. Plus, the rooms are spacious and come with outdoor hot tubs (though you’ll want to keep that temperature on the cooler side, of course). Trust me, this resort will have you feeling so pampered, you might never want to leave.

Secrets Moxche Playa del Carmen – For the Mama Who Wants a Peaceful Escape

Secrets Moxche is all about tranquility and that ‘escape from reality’ vibe, which is exactly what every expecting mom needs. From the second I arrived, I felt like I’d stepped into pure relaxation mode, which was exactly what I needed. And the pools? There’s not just one but a whole variety, including a lagoon-style pool that feels like a mini paradise. It’s a peaceful oasis where you can truly unwind and let the world fade away for a while.

For a mama-to-be, they’ve thought of everything! The rooms are cozy yet luxurious, and the beds feel like you’re sinking into a cloud—which, let’s be real, is a necessity at this point! And I have to mention the food: they have so many delicious, fresh options to keep up with those cravings, and everything’s just a short stroll away (perfect when you’re in the “I’m hungry again” phase!). And, of course, the dining options are incredible, with restaurants offering everything from Mexican classics to Mediterranean fare.

Their spa specializes in relaxing treatments, including a prenatal massage that’s gentle and oh-so-soothing. Whether you’re lounging by the pool or cozying up in a cabana, Secrets Moxché just makes you feel special, and it’s the perfect place to soak in those peaceful moments before the whirlwind begins.

Honorable Mention: Live Aqua Cancun – For the Mama Who Loves a Good View

Alright, I know I promised three, but I have to throw in Live Aqua Cancun because it’s just too good not to share. This place has hands down the best beachfront in Cancun and every room looks out over the ocean. If you’re thinking babymoon, this resort is spot-on—you get to wake up to the sound of the waves, stroll along an amazing beach, and just soak up all the relaxation. Plus, the daybeds come with a foot massage! And here’s a little bonus: you can roll the window shades up with a button right by the bed, so you don’t even have to move to enjoy that sunrise view. The robes feel like slipping into your coziest sweatshirt, too.

What makes Live Aqua so special is the focus on sensory experiences. It’s got calming scents, relaxing music, and the whole resort just gives off a “we’ve got you” vibe. And the food? They’ve got all the cravings covered with endless options, and their smoothie bar? Heaven. They just kept the treats coming and were so attentive—I felt so taken care of!

A Babymoon to Remember

So, mama, when you’re ready for a little time away before the baby arrives, I hope one of these dreamy spots will be just what you need. Each of these resorts offers a perfect mix of relaxation, pampering, and luxury—all without the pressure of planning a huge trip. You’ve got enough on your plate, so let me handle the details. You deserve every bit of this special time. When you’re ready, I’m here to make sure your babymoon is everything you’ve dreamed of and more.
