Mexico Holidays

[Jorg Jorgenson]

We are about to book Cancun Iberostar Feb 26-Mar2 seems to have really good reviews and COVID insurance policy built in with Iberostar resorts so if I test positive I get a paid-for extended 10-day vacation. Sounds ok to me. I read reviews about worse service farther South from town, just do the research and I'm sure it'll be fine. Pick a place with large variety of eateries is biggest thing IMO.

Oh and swim up bar.

Not looking forward to paying for PCR testing, although sounds like if you needed a 'negative test'.. you can make sure you get one. From what I have been told.

I just got back from Hawaii two days ago and I brought my own test kit with me, did the test to come home over a video call on my phone, it was super easy, I haven't been to that resort but I will check it out online, thanks

How are you finding the resorts now during covid? We are trying to book for April and the reviews from the places we have been and liked in the past are not good as of late, saying the service is worse, food is worse, not as clean anymore, less entertainment ect...

We went to 2 different resorts. 1 week each.
Both great. Rui Palace a bit better
Food drinks, cleanliness all perfect.

Will go again.

Both resorts busy. Playa busy,

We stayed at that resort a few years ago. Walked past it a few weeks ago.

Only wore masks to get food inside, none outside in pools or pool bar
Pcr test we had Doctor come to our room 90.00 US. All 4 of us negative.
We bought Covid travel insurance just in case we needed it

Enjoy your trip

we enjoyed the beach and the room was nice at serinis but the buffet was a bit iffy, was rui any different? Stayed at Barcelo Caribe last time buffets were very good there but crappy beach, pools were great though lots of space no morning pool towel games.

Rui Palace food was really good.

Depends where I’m going, was just in Maui and there isn’t much for all inclusive which is just fine but I wouldn’t go to Mexico in anything but an all inclusive.

we stay at a house on golf course in palmillo and 4-5 days at tesoro in cancun get free breakfast there but get to explore all the local food better that way

Headed for Vegas Friday… staying south for a couple weeks, driving so have to figure out shortly where to cross.

Cross by Waterton park ... It's not 24hours though, so google it before crossing

hey Might be more fun then a trip down south. Plus chances are they won’t ask you to do a anal a$$ prob to say you don’t have a cold So you can come back to a country that rejects its citizens.

Reading the website it does not seem like this can be used for Mexico? At least not from Azova, it has to be mailed back your results, not done over video.

Iberostar Selection Cancun. Golf right behind the resort, lots included, large variety of pools/bars/dining. On the big beach. Casino nearby. Here's hoping it's good!
