Haven Resort in Trouble???
I just read that a resort in the Riviera Maya was seized by the FGE on the evening of April 25, 2023 (the FGE is basically the State Attorney General’s Office in Mexico). According to the report in the Riviera Maya News article, the property was seized after receiving a complaint of “dispossession”. From what I understand, someone else has claimed that they actually own the land/property and are contesting current ownership.
New Margaritaville Resort Opening Delayed…
FYI: The new opening date is scheduled for June 1, 2023.
For those of you who were looking forward to the opening of Margaritaville Island Reserve Riviera Maya please be aware that the date has changed to June 2023. Since there is no specific date in June mentioned, it is a possibility that the opening could be delayed further. You may want to book this resort for July/August 2023 to be on the safe side.
Anyone Else Into Some Spring Break Resort Statistics?
Hola and Buenos Dias! In case you were wondering why I haven’t done any recent blog posts, I just returned from my latest Cancun/Riviera Maya trip and was having so much fun I barely had time to post pics to my Instagram account! Stay tuned for articles related to this stay.
Here’s Another Article About Tipping in Mexico…
Whether or not to tip while taking a vacation at an all-inclusive resort in Mexico has always been a hot topic of discussion. I previously wrote my own thoughts about tipping while staying at an all-inclusive resort in Cancun/Riviera Maya; here’s another article about tipping written by staff at Loco Gringo.com–if you are ever looking to book a vacation rental in the Riviera Maya instead of an all-inclusive resort, this is the place to go to get information on the best place to rent for your vacation needs. To read the article on tipping, just click here. Kay Walten, who started Loco Gringo, has lived in the Riviera Maya for quite some time now and she is in the know about the area.
A New Addition to the Xcaret All-Fun Inclusive Offerings…
Grupo Xcaret has announced a new addition to their All-Fun Inclusive offerings–a catamaran cruise! My understanding is that the catamaran leaves from La Casa de la Playa (the resort immediately to the north of Hotel Xcaret Arte), but right now I can’t seem to find out more information about the details. The new catamaran cruise is for all guests of Hotel Xcaret Mexico, Hotel Xcaret Arte, and La Casa de la Playa, all Grupo Xcaret properties.
E-Gates Are Now In Use At Cancun Airport….

Is There Any Secret To Getting A Room Upgrade?
The title to this blog post is rather misleading since there obviously is no secret to getting a room upgrade. If there were, we would all eventually be in on the secret and all get our dream room for a fraction of what we would normally pay.
No More Tourist Card Needed At The Cancun Airport?
There is a pilot program currently underway which involves getting rid of the infamous “Tourist Card/Visa” which vacationers from outside of Mexico have had to present to Immigration when you get off the plane at the Cancun airport. Well, from what I understand it involves those who currently reside in Mexico, temporarily or otherwise, but I’m primarily interested in what tourists need to enter/exit Mexico.
