Travel agents can be remarkably resourceful…a prime example would be agents/owners from Lone Star Travel who were allowed to be on-site at the new Hyatt Zilara Riviera Maya (formerly known as Secrets Capri).  It is still adults-only but has undergone a complete remodel with some new additions as well–think oceanfront swim-outs, for example. Lone Star Travel reps took videos from several areas of the resort including a guest room category, King Jr. Suite Tropical View.

While I had hopes of getting a tour of the new Secrets Impression Moxche section while on my most current vacay, the opening date has been postponed until Dec. 1, 2022 so I missed out on that opportunity, darn.  While I was walking around the grounds of Secrets Moxche, I poked my nose into some flora and peeked behind fences to get a few pics of some of the outdoor areas of the Impression section.  Before I post the photos, here is a reminder of what you will be experiencing at this separate section of this beautiful resort.

Just a note about the most recent delay of the upgraded Impression section of Secrets Moxche…as many of you know, I just returned from a trip to Cancun and a visit to both Platinum Yucatan Princess and the new Secrets Moxche.  If you follow my blog at all you also know that it takes a bit for me to upload all my resort info since I have a regular day job and that obviously comes first when I come back from my vacations.

If you’ve been keeping track of the many new resorts already open or soon to open in the Cancun and Riviera Maya areas of Mexico, you may know that the brand new Hotel Riu Latino in the Costa Mujeres area north of Cancun just opened its doors for business.  It is a new adults-only resort, and while it is not a Riu Palace brand, it has a lot to offer guests including a water park.  It seems somewhat similar to Riu Dunamar which I stayed at several years ago–kids aren’t allowed at this one, however.

Those interested in the brand new Riu Palace Kukulkan in Cancun’s Hotel Zone will be happy to know you can book a room for as low as $145 p/person p/night USD for fall/winter travel (I believe you have to book a minimum of three nights).  I’ve already booked a new room category for March 2023, Jr. Suite Ocean View Elite Club, for my extended Quintana Roo spring vacay and was able to save an additional $200 USD by booking via the loyalty membership Riu Class on the resort’s website.  It is free to sign up!  You can choose how to pay if you book via the resort’s website–pay at the time of booking, pay at the hotel, etc.
