I sure am positive...I would NEVER forget a hotel that did me wrong...

But on that note, I would not discourage anyone from ever going to Cancun, its a wonderful, relaxing place :yes:

I know..Actually the reason I picked this area is because its a quieter resort in Cancun..off the beaten path.....no teenyboppers.......at this hotel.I just want sun..Im too old for the partying..well..sort of..LOL!

Mexico in general is simply AWFUL during March/April due to spring break. We went to what was described by our travel agent as a "quiet resort" during the month of March outside of Puerto Vallarta a couple years ago. It was filled with drunk, loud and obnoxious college kids. We were very specific about not wanting a resort filled with kids on spring break - my father had just died after suffering horribly from cancer for a year and my husband and I desperately needed a break after the stress of his death and grief. We were assured that because this resort was outside of town and expensive, there would not be any kids there partying. We arrived and the first thing we saw in the lobby was a pack of them being loud and staggering around drunk at 1:00 in the afternoon. It was downhill from there. NOT A FUN TIME. I hope you have better luck.

If you want to try a more relaxed setting, off the beaten Cancun path, look into Playa del Carmen (Riviera Maya). It's about 35 to 45 minutes from Cancun, and is a quaint (but growing) beach town.....and you have your choice of adorable boutique hotels or all-inclusive resorts.

It's a 30 minute ferry ride to Cozumel (nice day trip) and within an hour of the Mayan ruins inTulum (great beach area too) and 3 hours from Chichen Itza.

Also, Playa has one of the best beaches, with the most fabulous water....and great restaurants and bars too! Not sure how infiltrated it gets with spring breakers, but my guess it's less than in Cancun!!

Just a thought............

I was going to suggest Riviera Maya also. The Aventura Spa Palace is AMAZING! Look at the pics online, they are beautiful! Everyone else I know who sayed there loved it!
