There’s an awesome Secrets resort coming to the increasingly popular Costa Mujeres area north of downtown Cancun.  While Secrets Playa Blanca had been scheduled to open Dec. 1, 2023, it has now been rescheduled to open Feb. 1, 2024.  When I talked with a Secrets booking agent a couple of weeks ago who notified me of the cancellation of my Dec. reservation, he admitted that while Feb. is a tentative date of opening, that is not guaranteed either.

This new Margaritaville Island Reserve Riviera Maya all-inclusive resort is a beauty!  Take a look at a new video done by 2 Getaway Travel agency showing the grounds and the Land Shark Brewery…I noticed the beach wasn’t shown but that might be because of sargassum or something is not done yet in that area of the resort.  Another new video by another videographer also does not show the beach…hmm.  It’s almost a given that new resorts upon opening have yet to finish some of their rooms and/or amenities.

I have been patiently waiting for a video to come out showing the new addition to Haven Riviera Cancun which opened Nov. 2022.  While the video is not comprehensive about the addition, at least viewers can see the new outdoor area. The video is not in English, so just mute it and enjoy the video without explanation.. I have been thinking about returning to Haven anyway since it is one of my new favorite resorts, such a burden (lol) to return and make a video about the new addition.

Royalton Splash Riviera Cancun just opened and YouTube has its first complete video out!!  Looks like the resort has a lot to offer families including the large water park, two lazy rivers, separate younger children’s water park, three story kids club, bowling (yay!), trampoline area, and laser tag.  Given the info on the video, only half of the water park is open until Feb. 2023, so take note that if you stay here prior to that not all amenities will be open…sadly, pretty standard these days for new resort openings.

Christine Turner, a travel agent based out of Canada, just hosted a livestream from the brand new adults-only Hyatt Zilara Riviera Maya yesterday (remember Secrets Capri?  This is the same property but fully renovated with some new additions).  Yes, the resort is already open as of Dec. 1, 2022 and has some amazing looking additions and renovations.  Like oceanfront plunge pools?  You can book it here.  Like the ability to not fully upgrade but want butler service?  You can do that here as well with a daily additional fee for just butler service.
