Planning Our Next Vacation

Tuesday, July 21, 2015

We are due for a trip...and one that is preferably far away! Besides a short couples trip to Costa Rica two years ago, Andrew and I haven't been on a trip by ourselves since our honeymoon which was 3 years ago. This is where I need your help! We have contacted a travel agent that works for Andrew's company, and she has given us a ton of great information, but I want your suggestions! She has given us suggestions on a few resorts near Cancun such as Excellence Riviera Cancun, which is currently the front runner. 

Our requirements:
Outside of the US
All-inclusive resort
Adults only (sorry moms!)
White sand and clear blue water
Great restaurants at the resort 
Pool (preferably our own) 
Affordable - can't spend what we did on our honeymoon! 

Other than that, we aren't really picky because we will really just sit on a beach for the majority of the day! We aren't huge into excursions because that takes effort, right? We are more into sitting on the beach with a book in hand, sipping on cocktails and snacks and getting in the ocean every now and then. 


Throwback from our Honeymoon in St. Lucia in 2012. 


Thanks for your help! I can't wait to hear your recommendations! We are not set on Mexico, so any location is up for grabs! 
xoxo

  4. Yay for planning vacations!! Look into Secrets Royal Beach in Punta Cana- Ryan & I went there 2 years ago and it was amazing- the resort was pristine and it is connected to the NOW resort next door so there are lots of options for food and entertainment :)

  5. Although this place does not meet the criteria, I still recommend it because it's my favorite place! I recommend Long Beach Island! Read about it on my blog here- http://rothseri.com/2015/07/19/vacation-idea-long-beach-island-a-full-guide-to-my-favorite-place-in-the-world/
