It’s still pending approval on Trip Advisor but I thought I might as well post my review of Sandos Caracol Eco-Resort, the all-inclusive we just stayed at here as well (with bonus photos, external links, and a few other edits/additions)… [Edit: This might not end up being my Trip Advisor review after all. I got […]
I’ve written a lot about our upcoming trip, our past trips and I’m sure I’ll have more to say when we get back (Pace has started his own YouTube channel so him and I might try to make a kid-focused review of our resort since the only one I could find was a fairly short, […]
I can’t remember how we ended up deciding on the Sandos Caracol resort when we booked last fall but I have to say this is the first time in all our various resort holidays over the years that I’m regretting that we’re only going for a week instead of two. Beyond the things pretty much […]
Because the Internet – everything from YouTube to Instagram, TripAdvisor to Twitter, mommy bloggers to travel bloggers and much much more – allows you to get a sense of travel destinations before you go, I sometimes think the anticipation of a trip is (almost) as good as the trip itself.

Last Things First! Usually this would be the end of my review but let’s get it out of the way right off the bat: Hyatt Ziva Cancun is the best resort we’ve ever stayed at! I mean, based on Ziva’s overall Trip Advisor rating (#6 out of ~200 Cancun hotels when I booked the trip, […]
Hard to believe we’ve been home for Cancun three weeks as of today! I’ve been pecking away at this review the past few weeks (and actually started drafting it while in Cancun) but having the Easter long weekend gave me time and incentive to finally finish it! Here you go… A Note on TripAdvisor TripAdvisor […]
A few years back, I did a post where I listed 10 things that were important to us when selecting an all-inclusive resort for our vacations. That list, in no particular order, included the following: Multiple/big pools Decent, non-repetitive food Beautiful beach Unique bars Kids Club Oceanview Room A la carte restaurants Wifi Nearby city/attractions […]
As I said in an earlier post, Moon Palace Cancun nails pretty much everything on my “10 Things I Want in An All-Inclusive” list except that the nearest city (Cancun) is a bit further away then I’d like and Moon Palace Cancun doesn’t have a great beach/swimmable ocean (which then becomes a deal-breaker in terms of […]
