Drone Video of Valentin Imperial Riviera Maya
I believe the last drone video of Valentin Imperial Riviera Maya I posted was back in 2016, but I’m posting another just to remind everyone what a spectacular adults-only resort this really is–take a look at the video and tell me what you think.
Atelier Master Suite Review
FYI: Atelier no longer allowing Estudio guests to access the property for free. You will now have to pay extra to do so.
Drone Video of Barcelo Maya Grand Resort
This video was taken prior to the building of the adults-only section (Barcelo Maya Riviera), but it does show the rest of this mega-resort. The Barcelo Maya Grand resort is actually five (and soon to be six) resorts-in-one comprised of the Barcelo Maya Beach, Caribe, Colonial, Tropical, and the Palace resorts. I visited here in the summer of 2018, so if you want to read my review and see my pics you can click here.
Hard Rock Cancun Suite Review
I can’t believe it’s Friday again–time for another suite review. This time I’m taking a closer look at the one-bedroom Rock Suite Platinum at the Hard Rock Hotel Cancun.
A New Suite Review at The Fives
Larger families and groups traveling together often have a difficult time finding all-inclusives which can accommodate their entire party while allowing for sufficient space for everyone involved. The Fives Azul Beach Resort Playa del Carmen is a perfect choice to meet these specifications–suites come in a variety of bedrooms, from the standard type of room to three-bedroom suites with rooftop space. This resort is located close to Playa del Carmen in the Riviera Maya which also makes it easy to shop in Playa, take excursions to the many wonderful cenotes and parks in the Riviera Maya, or just stay on-site and enjoy what the resort has to offer. Karisma has spent over $40 million on renovations during the last several years which has included new guest room buildings, additional restaurants, a new Plaza area where guests can meet and mingle, and has also pumped sand into the ocean in their attempt to make a smoother ocean entry.

Another Suite Review–UNICO 2087 Alcoba Oceanfront
Time for another suite review, on this occasion from the adults-only UNICO 2087 in the Riviera Maya. This is a five-star property and also a member of the Leading Hotels of the World (LHW); the resort has additional accolades including Travel and Leisure’s ranking of #7 out of 15 in the category of best Mexico Resort Hotels, in addition to ranking #3 in Conde Nast’s Reader’s Choice Awards in the category of best resorts in Eastern Mexico. The 2087 in its name comes from the resort’s latitude and longitude coordinates.
Another Suite Category Review–Swim-Out Jr. Suite at The Haven
The Haven Riviera Cancun is a resort that has been on my radar for quite some time; however, the price point (when I’ve checked) resulted in a “no bueno” vote when it came to booking. If anyone sees any great deals for this resort please let me know, I’d love to jump on the chance! Here’s what I believe to be the resort’s selling points: Continue reading
Iberostar Tucan Superior Standard Room Video
I just got back from my trip to Cancun and the Riviera Maya, and here’s the room video of my first resort stay at Iberostar Tucan. The room is located in building #13 facing Sandos Playacar; this is an area where you have a better chance at seeing howler monkeys. I got a complimentary upgrade from Brenda at the front desk once she learned I was interested in encountering monkeys–don’t be afraid to ask!
