Stay Tuned For New Resort Reviews…
Got back from my latest Mexico vacay last night and it’s off to work today–seeing 8 clients in a row without any breaks is a tough way to get back to reality from a wonderful vacation but it is what it is. While I have been extremely negligent in posting more recent resort reviews (I still haven’t gotten around to posting my SLS Playa Mujeres and Riu Caribe resort reviews from January and now add to that Iberostar Selection Paraiso Maya Suites and JOIA Paraiso), I promise this will change within the next 2 weeks.
And My Next Mexico Vacation Will Be At…
Yesterday I posted that I will be vacationing at Iberostar Selection Paraiso Maya Suites for the first part of my stay.

And My Next Mexico Vacation Will Be At….
I am going on vacation in a few days! And to my favorite place–where else, Mexico. Namely, staying in the Riviera Maya at two resorts which are part of the same Iberostar megaresort complex at Playa Paraiso. I will be traveling with a family member I haven’t traveled with before so I am excited about a new experience.

What if you want to skip the fast food options to save time from cooking after a hard day’s work? What if you want to reconnect with yourself instead of spending your vacation in the more mindless fashion of eat, drink, pool and beach time, drink some more, and repeat?
Interested In How The Sargassum Is Affecting Cancun Hotel Zone Beaches?
Here’s a couple of live webcams from Cancun’s Hotel Zone which show how the current sargassum situation is affecting beaches in that location. The first is from the beach area by Punta Cancun which is in front of the Krystal resort properties and Hyatt Ziva Cancun at the very end (I believe this webcam is from the Park Royal property).
Want To Learn More About Fairmont Mayakoba’s All-Inclusive Option?
Many vacationers looking for the nirvana experience of staying at a luxury resort with really good food are disappointed when their resort doesn’t live up to their expectations. And so the search continues with many more disappointing experiences for them.
The Science Behind The Restorative Power Of Vacationing By The Ocean…
If you’re anything like me, you may wonder from time to time why it is that you have a tendency to either fall asleep on your beach lounger or feel somewhat groggy when you try to get up from your beach lounger while on a beach vacation…
