Remember "end of the world" in 2012? and we bought a tour package to Mexico, just in time for those Mayan Indians who prophesied (according to our rumors) that end! We wanted to celebrate New Year's Eve and Christmas (this is our tradition) in a warm country.
Sorry, this review is 7 years late, but I can't help but write. A lot of memories left about distant Mexico, we, then still inexperienced tourists! )
After a tiring flight, NG was abandoned. Three days struggled with the change of daylight hours on the other side of the world. I really wanted to sleep during the day and stay awake at night
Now, choosing a vacation in Mexico, I would still choose hotels in Cancun itself or in the city of Playa del Carmen. They are, one might say, more civilized, more geared towards tourists. And the Riviera Maya is far from the hustle and bustle, more for relaxation. Only the huge territory of the Barcelo Maya hotel chain saves. With big iguanas walking along the paths. Squirrels jumping on palm trees. Pelicans arrive, birds are different, different. I even saw a hummingbird! Beautiful nature and snow-white, long, clean beach. And the Caribbean Sea (at that time we didn’t see anything more beautiful) there is snorkeling with schools of fish! This will not change even years! The service at the time was great! I called the food "why so much food ??? " "All inclusive" rolls over. Lots of seafood, delicious drinks and wonderful cuisine! Remember - Mexican-style "Nachos" chips with cheese like "fondue", you have never tasted anything tastier anywhere! )
Right in the corridor of the hotel, I was surprised by the apparatus (like a refrigerator), with pieces of ice. We had a family room, or rather an adjacent one, with 2 bathrooms and a passage door between the rooms. Which is very convenient for a large family (we rested with two sons) Cleaning is excellent. Noise isolation left a lot to be desired.
I did not like the behavior of American youth. Drunk to death, yelling in the middle of the night, the same story in bars.
Good animation with its entertainment program and a large concert hall with a bar did not let you get bored in the afternoon and in the evening.
There is a small market and shops for buying souvenirs and various Mexican goods. There is nothing outside the territory, only a bus stop. To the nearest shopping center "Centro Maya" half an hour to go for $ 3 (then), to the city of Playa del Carmen.
We took 2 excursions to the Mayan Pyramids (how can we not see them? ) We swam in the strange wells "cenote" Ik Kil in Chichen Itza. And we went to Xcaret Park - more like a zoo, where birds and animals live close to the wild. I liked everything very much!! ! Everything is very unusual!
Many years have passed... maybe there are changes. I think I need to repeat to refresh my memory!
