Cancun Tips

[trixkid89]

I am planning a 5 day trip to Cancun with my friends in February. We haven't booked yet but are wanting to do an all inclusive package. I would love to get some helpful insights as to which resort to stay at, who to book through and any sightseeing advice you could give me.
Thanks!!!

How old are you? Are you couples or singles? Have you checked Apple Vacations; they have good charters from several cities in the U.S. Sightseeing is good there and IF you are VERY adventurous, there are some really cool spots way south of Cancun-south of akumal even. I would stay at least near Playa de Carmen but really Akumal is a great spot for some real adventure tours.

about 45 minutes south of Cancun....

I don't do AIs because the food is good and cheap and it's such a cool place to get around....

I just went with 2 friends for my 40th....it was a blast...

Here's a link...

I spent $1200 TOTAL including airfare for my portion of the trip! Woo Hoo.

our DD got married in Playa del Carmen...we felt very safe there and had a blast. We stayed at Riu Palace Mexico. Cheapcaribbean.com has great prices.

When we went a few years ago we used Apple Vacations and stayed at the Moon Palace. We loved it there!

Are you wanting to stay at an adults-only AI? Cancun isn't known for them. The Sun Palace, The Royal Cancun, and Le Blanc are a few, but other than that, most accept kids.

If you head further south, from Puerto Morales to Playa del Carmen, you'll find lots of nice, adults-only AI's. The only drawback, is the water isn't as pretty as it is in Cancun, and while there is nightlife in PDC, it won't compare to what you'll find in Cancun.

It really all depends on what you're looking for.
