I made a post a couple of days ago about the TA’s visiting the new Secrets Mirabel Cancun, and yes, it is now open. So anyone with reservations coming up does not have to worry about further postponements….
I can’t believe my next Mexico vacay is in two weeks. It can’t come soon enough, I am so ready for a break. Does anyone remember “We Gotta Get Out of This Place” by the Animals?? That’s pretty much my current mindset. This vacay is another solo adventure so I get to do exactly what I want when I want! My first resort is Hotel Riu Latino which is an adults-only resort in the Costa Mujeres area north of downtown Cancun This resort opened in 2022 and it was the first adults-only Riu resort which had its own water park. I think it may still hold that honor to the best of my knowledge.
Oh to be a TA…some of them had a 2 hr. tour of the newly renovated and rebranded Secrets Mirabel Cancun. I guess that means that the resort is now accepting guests for their “soft opening”? Not sure about that since the TA’s only stayed for 2 hrs. and not overnight. Plus in the pics and videos I’ve seen there didn’t seem to be any guests, just resort staff tending to the TA’s.
I literally cannot keep up with all the new all-inclusive resorts opening up within the next two months…Since I’m not a TA I don’t get constant info about new properties so I have to randomly come across info, and here’s another one I missed.
Ocean Allure Costa Mujeres is moving up its opening date to Dec. 3, 2025. If you’ve never stayed at a brand new all-inclusive resort soon after its opening, here’s what to typically expect: Continue reading
A couple of days ago I posted an article and a video link about Impression Isla Mujeres by Secrets (go back a couple of posts and read that article if interested). Today I’m going to post another Impression resort video by the same vlogger, 3 Days 3 Noches, only this time it’s about Impression Moxche by Secrets.
Surprise, surprise, surprise, (not), Secrets Mirabel Cancun’s opening has been delayed until Nov. 15, 2025. While the resort will (supposedly) be open then, the spa will not be done until Feb./March 2026.
I’ve been curious about this property for awhile, especially the details about how guests arrive to the resort from Cancun. Now there’s a video that gives all the details I’ve wanted, and from one of my favorite vloggers, 3 Days 3 Noches.
If anyone is curious about the new Riu Ventura, here’s a short drone video of the build which was taken about a month ago. Notice the beautiful beach area it’s on (it’s by Playa Delfines), but also notice that this resort is built in a more perpendicular position to the beach so that means less real oceanfront room views vs. all the side ocean views. Some vacationers like both a sunrise/ocean view while others like more of a partial ocean view with an emphasis on sunset views when staying in the Hotel Zone, so this property can accommodate both wants as far as that is concerned.
For those of you familiar with the multiple Hotels Xcarets (Hotel Xcaret Mexico, Hotel Xcaret Arte, and La Casa de la Playa), you know that once you paid for your resort stay in full you were given access to their “Wishlist” which meant you could make reservations at specialty restaurants, select parks, and select excursions. There evidently has been some very recent changes which will affect their Wishlist policy.
