Club Suite at the Golden Parnassus–A Suite Review
This is another suite review for those on a budget looking to vacation in Cancun–this time it is an adults-only resort. Don’t let Golden Parnassus Cancun fool you; it may be a smaller and less well-known resort in Cancun’s Hotel Zone, but it has a devoted following. If you’re 30+, on a budget, and are looking for an adults-only resort with a party atmosphere, this may be the resort for you.
Ik-Kil Cenote Video
I’ve been on a cenote binge lately. Here’s a short video of one of the most famous cenotes in the Yucatan Peninsula, Ik-Kil Cenote which is close to Chichen Itza. If you’re doing it independently, be sure to get there early because some Chichen Itza tours plan an afternoon stopover at Ik-Kil.
All Ritmo Cancun Resort and Waterpark–A Suite Review
Looking for more affordable all-inclusive resorts in Cancun? Here’s a family-friendly all-inclusive optional resort just north of downtown Cancun on the way to Playa/Costa Mujeres beach areas. It’s the All Ritmo Cancun Resort and Waterpark (which used to be called Sea Adventure Resort and Waterpark); it changed its name two years ago, but most of what the resort has to offer has not differed in any significant manner.
This Is Why People Come to Tulum….
I love drone videos, they give such a great overall picture of an entire resort or area. The video below highlights Tulum, a small but very popular town on the southern edge of the Riviera Maya. There are two all-inclusive resorts in/nearby Tulum–Kore Tulum is approximately three miles south of Tulum proper, while Dreams Tulum is a 10-minute drive north of the Tulum Ruins and the town. The location of these all-inclusives makes it easy for guests to take in both the ruins and enjoy what Tulum has to offer in an easy day trip.
Emporio Cancun Jr. Suite–A Suite Review
Here’s another suite review of a Cancun resort for those on a budget (the first one I reviewed was a swim-up suite at the Flamingo Cancun Resort Hotel). Few have probably heard of Emporio Cancun; it is an all-inclusive optional, meaning that vacationers who book don’t necessarily have the all-inclusive plan, so be careful if you are booking it yourself using a wholesaler. There are three basic meal plans: room-only (European Plan), bed and breakfast plan, and the all-inclusive plan.
Sian Ka’an Master Suite at The Pyramid at Grand Cancun–A Suite Review
If you’re looking for an all-inclusive resort in Cancun’s Hotel Zone which has many restaurant and bar choices, a more lively atmosphere with lots of entertainment possibilities, and the lengthiest pool in Cancun (it’s a quarter-mile long and meanders beachfront), then staying at The Pyramid at Grand Cancun could be your kind of vacation destination.
New Drone Video of Playa del Carmen
For those of you curious about or following the upcoming changes in Playa del Carmen, here’s a new video showing some of the initial projects (new and better beach access from 5th, changes to the popular Parque Fundadores, not sure about the larger cleared out construction spaces, however–does anyone know what is being done there?).
New Swim-Up Rooms at Flamingo Cancun Resort–A Suite Review
Not every traveler can afford a $5k+ vacation for two for a week at a luxury 5-star resort. So I’ve decided to do a series of suite reviews in Cancun/Riviera Maya all-inclusive resorts (or all-inclusive optional resorts) which will give you the most “bang for your buck” (vacation dollar/euro/peso, etc.).
