My wife enjoys the typical green juice - here’s the recipe, in case anyone was wondering- Cancun Green Juice Makes approximately 4 servings 12 ounces pineapple juice 12 ounces orange juice 3 ounces (about 2/3 cup diced) nopales (Prickly Pear cactus) 2 stalks celery 1/4 cup parsley leaves, lightly packed 1. Place all the ingredients in the blender jar and puree until smooth.

@@peggy-ann1961 ohh gotcha. I really like the RIUs , but one thing about RIU is the nightlife is, meh… Bahia has much better parties and nightlife! For the most part they’re pretty similar though. I would give a slight edge to RIU for food. But again Bahia is still really good.

Not at this resort! It’s first come first serve. Usually if you have to wait, it’s only 10-15 mins from our experience.

You pick up your towels at a towel hut located on the pool deck 👍🏻 we haven’t been to Jamaica yet - but we’d love to go one day! We love Mexico so much that we keep wanting to go back 🤷🏼‍♀️🤣

would you recommend dinner at the buffet or the a la carte?

@WherewegoingNext

2 жыл бұрын

Both ! Try some a la cartes, whichever sounds good for your tastes. They are quiet and more intimate. Also, the buffet is awesome too! Much more noisy and busy but still delicious.

They’re both good - and also keep in mind that this was filmed during the pandemic, so the buffet was not operating at 100%
