I went in June and loved it! Going back in 3 weeks! Tested positive for covid when i returned..

Gosh I LOVE this! It seems like everyone I know is going to Mexico right now and I want to join them! THANK YOU for all the great info - you NEVER let me down!

@@lifeaswegomez There is TONS to do in Cancun with kids. Cabo is also great, not as much to do. But the flight is a lot shorter--and can be cheaper. A lot of resorts have plenty to do on-site and you don't really need to do excursions unless you really want to. Not doing excursions, our kids have never been bored. There's always enough at the hotel (activities, shows, etc) to do!

I have been watching your video's for years! I'm so glad your family got to go on vacation. Ours was cancelled to The Atlantis last May because of Covid. I love Mexico & have been there 3 times, but every time I get super sick no matter what I do! I tried all the medications & not drinking the water, no ice & brushing my teeth with bottled water. But the revenge gets me every time!!!! LOL....

We haven't been to Mexico since before kids, this was super helpful. We're looking for a warm place to travel this year. I'm definitely leaning towards an all inclusive resort (kids ages 11, 8, & 4). Curious what your favorites have been?

@TheMeleaShow

3 жыл бұрын

There are soooo many options! So I think it comes down to if you want all-inclusive or not. And then what things are at the resort your family wants to do. This time, we stayed at the Hard Rock Riviera Maya. Im hoping I will have a video up in a few weeks for you guys showing that so you can see details of what it was like. Cabo is also another favorite (shorter flight too!)

Did you have to do anything with coming back to the states?? Was it easy to re-enter? Did you have to do a Covid test? Any tips? Thank you!

Ik it would have been better but some people are trying to live just let them be it’s them taking a risk not you just worry about your health right now and let others worry about there’s

This might be a dumb question, but there is no TSA type check when leaving Cancun? I noticed your vanilla was over 8oz. US TSA blows a blood vessel when packing containers over 3 oz.

Question? Due to covid what paper form or proof due we need to show? I mean do we have to take the covid vaccine before we travel and show proof or not?

When is the best time to visit (not crowded, good weather)?

Visited Mexico many times when we lived in the USA and I never got ill my hubby got sick once and Lomatil fixed if very quickly. Not keen on Cancun at all much prefer Cabo. We tipped the bar staff when we first arrived and got super service our whole stay plus we tipped when we left also did this with our domestic she was old,put in long hours and looked after us like family, and on leaving my husband tipped her about a weeks wages. He also gave her our portable DVD Player and the kids videos as she had been making comments on it for a while and she cried. Yes agree never drink the tap water and gotta be so careful with anything washed in tap water too. I bought a very large bottle of Mexican Vanilla for baking nothing like it for baking. Love Mexico and the people are so friendly,

I have a question 🤗 What are the first forms you said to keep safe?

Did you buy tours in cancun or online

any activities recommended for non-swimmers ?

Is traveling back with kids from Mexico hard???! We’re flying to Mexico for a ceremony but staying for the honeymoon while kids fly back with grandma!

Where did you get your covid test to come back to the us

Is it okay to have ice in your drinks?

Pesos are the only way to go. You get change in pesos if you use USD, and often times the change is a little short.

I have a question about tipping. My husband and I are big tippers. We just believe people who earn tips, should be tipped generously. So what is a good tip and do you just keep handing out the bills like its candy.

You can fill out the immigration online, print it and bring with you. No need to bring a pen and some of the airlines are not even handing them out anymore

Which hotel was this?

5:18 claro que sí bonita. Así estáis

This was a very informative vlog.... all very good things for people new to Mexico. the ONLY THING I WOULD CHANGE IS..... you should tip your waiters in Pesos, and not US currency.... only because many of them work 6 days a week, and it is REALLY HARD for them to get to the bank to exchange the American money. We were told this by our waiters in 2019, when we went to Cancun.

Thank you for the helpful tips and sharing highlights with your family. Ironically, we are taking our kids (12 and 14) to the this resort in March. And ignore the haters... not everyone lives in fear of a virus with a 99.9% survival rate ;)

There are a lot of great resorts in Cancun! Honestly too many cuz it makes it hard to choose! We stayed at the Hard Rock Riviera Maya this time around. I'm hoping to have a full video up on that in a couple weeks so you guys can see what it's like and if it might be a good fit for your families. If you are going with just adults, sometimes it's nice to find an adults only hotel instead. For this particular resort, they did have room options that would sleep up to 6 I believe?

So we are booked for hotel zone for may. Two days ago I found they now require negative test for re entry to US ! Should we cancel ? I have no idea how we will get a test down there. I don’t want to travel around Cancun looking for a testing site and encounter dangerous situations
