I’m still going through all of the pics and videos I took during my trip to Punta Cana. I came home just before Thanksgiving and between hosting the holiday, enjoying time with family and getting my winter break travelers ready to go, it’s been a bit crazy over here!

This was my 2nd visit to Hyatt Ziva and Zilara Cap Cana this year and this property is a win every time! The service is outstanding, food is great , the pools and beach are gorgeous and there’s tons of amenities for families and great space for the adults to indulge and enjoy their tine away. These properties book up quick for winter and spring break as they are just that good! Contact me for more info!

I had a great visit at the Iberostar Bavaro complex last week. This complex has 4 family resorts and an adults-only resort on site.

Guests staying at Iberostar Selection Coral Bavaro have access to all 4 family resorts during their stay. I loved the pink and teal color scheme throughout the rooms and public spaces. The beach is fabulous and the grounds are lush and beautiful!

This is definitely a solid property for families and groups!

Grand Velas Riviera Maya has been one of my top booked resorts for many years and my recent stay there was exceptional! This resort is very luxurious with a focus on service. It has amazing food including a restaurant with a Michelin star. All of this and with the convenience of being an all-inclusive property.

I’ve stayed at their resorts in Cabo, Riviera Nayarit and Riviera Maya and all are equally amazing but with their own personal touches. Riviera Maya is built into the mangroves so the surroundings are lush with wildlife and beautiful surroundings. This resort is great for families but also has adults-only areas as well. I can’t wait to tell you more about this property!

I can’t believe a week has gone by since my glorious stay at Hyatt Zilara Cancun! I’m a long time fan of Hyatt Zilara and Hyatt Ziva properties. They do such a great job with service and entertainment and this property certainly did exceptional with both!

What I really loved about this resort are the themed dinners offered through the week that take place in the grand lobby. We enjoyed the White Party and the Mexican Fiesta so much! They really go all out to make sure their guests have fun! It’s a very versatile resort with enough fun for those that want to party and plenty of spaces to relax and unwind making a great property for honeymooners, friends, families with adult children or couples enjoying a getaway while their kids are at camp 😉

Contact me to see if this resort would be a good fit for your next vacation!
