You booked your all-inclusive vacation in Cancun, bought your plane tickets and made sure your passports were still current. Whether this is your first all-inclusive vacation or your tenth, you're sure to have an amazing time. Here are five tips to help you make the most of your upcoming all-inclusive vacation in Cancun:
1. Treat yourself to the spa! You're on vacation to get away from it all and relax, and nothing can relax you quite like being pampered for several hours (or for the entire day!) Whether it's a hydrotherapy treatment, a visit to the sauna and steam room, or a deep tissue massage at least once during your vacation can help you shed the stress of your everyday life so you can enjoy your vacation to its fullest.
2. Try a new activity. Whether it's the ultimate surfing challenge Flowrider, golfing, trying your hand at ping-pong, swimming with dolphins, trying a new non-motorized water sport or going down a waterslide at the resort for the first time, vacation is the time to be adventurous.
3. Get out of your culinary comfort zone. Your all-inclusive package includes your food and drinks, so this is your chance to try something you've never tasted before. Find your new favorite drink at the swim-up bar, try a new Mexican, Pan-Asian, Italian or American fine dining experience, or order room service at 2 AM. Go ahead: send your taste buds on vacation too!
4. Take advantage of kids' programs. If your whole family is going on vacation to Beach Palace or Moon Palace, take advantage of the fun activities and classes just for kids under 12! Your kids will enjoy making new friends and having fun, and you can enjoy the beach or pool knowing they're having a great time.
5. Plan for "down time." You'll likely want to plan some excursions during your vacation to experience all that Cancun and the Riviera Maya have to offer. Whether it's swimming with dolphins, visiting the Mayan ruins, shopping or taking advantage of the area's bustling nightlife scene, make sure you don't over-schedule yourselves. You'll want plenty of time to relax on the beach or by any of the amazing swimming pools. Pro-tip: Instead of trying to schedule your tours and outings on your own, schedule them through the resort's Vacation Planner. Not only will they be able to steer you in the right direction for safe, fun excursions, but they can also arrange great pricing for resort guests.
If this is your first visit to the Cancun area, do some research first so you can make the most of what is sure to feel like an all-too-short stay in paradise. Then, go ahead and pack your bags to prepare for the vacation experience of a lifetime.
