Cancun, Mexico

Cancun is an easy go-to destination for tourists, considering the city was rebuilt for them. Staying here, you should stay at an all-inclusive hotel as it is not always the safest here. Blue waters, huge white sand beaches, it is pretty difficult to have a bad time In Cancun. 

I honestly had terrible weather when in Mexico until the last day. Even with the gray skies, I still managed to have an amazing & unforgettable time in Cancun.

WHERE TO STAY

Royal Service at Paradisus Cancun 
Wonderful. This is the adult-only, all-inclusive hotel of the Paradisus- a large resort on the main strip of hotels in Cancun.
Paying for the Royal Service was definitely worth it; each room gets a personal butler during their stay. Mine was Rode - my boyfriend and I talk about him to this day, we loved him! 
​I do not have too much input on food here since one of my favorite foods is cheese quesadillas, and being in Mexico, all I ate was cheese quesadillas - heaven! The fridge was constantly filled and restocked with snacks, candy, drinks, & alcohol (of course all included).

Hard Rock Hotel Cancun
If you do not mind splurging and have the budget to do so, I hear nothing but great things about here.

One moment of sun we got!

Notes: 

• ​Try not to leave your resort unless on a planned & organized trip as you must be careful of yourself and your items.
• Book your transportation to & from the airport online before your trip.

Getting Around
I only left the resort once and it was to go out at night. We took the dollar bus that goes straight from the resorts to all of the restaurants, clubs, and bars downtown.  I did not feel very safe on this bus, however, it is cheap and easy to navigate. Just be careful. Always book taxis and excursions through your resort.
What I Found Easiest
I booked my transfer to and from the hotel online with USA Transfers. I recommend using this company.

How sweet?! - Rode (our butler) surprised us

Before the one of a kind night out

​Nightlife is a great time in Cancun. Every night, there are people partying at the clubs.  My boyfriend and I  had an interesting experience when out that I am not so sure I would do again. We took the bus straight to the clubs. The second you get off the bus, you have tens of people coming up to you trying to sell you tickets to certain clubs. Pretty overwhelming, especially when you are not sure which ones to trust.  We finally listened to one and let him take us to this club - good decision, an enjoyable time. When at the club, I do not recommend drinking too much because we saw many men watching us and others in the club, scheming, looking to steal and take money. There were two men in particular, one younger, one older, who were following us around. Thankfully, we noticed and got out of the situation. You must be very aware  when out on the town here, as you should anywhere you are out.
