Random question: Have you ever tried Mamey ice cream? I tried it once in Mexico, and it was delicious, almost like a cookie dough flavor.

Isla is definitely magical - the water, the views, the food, and the people. Happy that you got some time to recharge from the sea!

You really seem to be more yourself again, Maddie. Very enjoyable and informative video.

I was there in 1987. I loved every minute of it. It cost me $4.00 a day for a motel on the beach in those days. I fell in love with the Caribbean way back then. Went snorkling at the other end of the Island, it was a great experience. I learned how to scuba dive after that. There was a military base at the other end of the island at that time also. Happy to see Maddie there! Love the video. Brought back so many memories! Thank you!

I was there about 40 years ago. Isla Mujeres (Island of Women)was a perfect escape from the big hotel environment of nearby Cancun.

Yeah, I was there in the Yucatan for 3 months after graduating a New York State College back in 1982. Spent a week on Isla Mujeres Island. We are talking around 40 years ago too. It was great back in the day. Less touristy and much less expensive. Went as far south as Tulum and beyond. What a time. Went back a couple of years ago with my wife for a vacation. Stayed in a jungle beach resort just North of Playa. Was fun and great food as usual. But not the same as back in the day. You had to be there to appreciate it. Good memories are all I have left of Mexico.

Love your videos, Maddie. I felt comfortable spending several months in Mexico as a solo traveler thanks to your channel. Have you ever considered hosting a group trip? With your following, You would have so much success. Hope you will consider this (in Mexico and other countries) in the future 😊😊

I first visited Isla Mujeres in 2006 and fell in love instantly. I’ve been back multiple times since (no small feat from the UK!) Every time I go, I say ‘nope, not going again, too much development’ but then I see a video like this and it’s like...hmmm, maybe 🤔😂

The Yucatán peninsula is so beautiful! I spent a few days in Playa del Carmen in 2005 and I want to go back! I’m glad to see that the immense seaweed blob that’s been in the news doesn’t seem to be affecting this area.

I LOVED this vlog Maddie! Good job 😊😊 i love you interactions with the locals. I feel like I am hearing a Mexican but I am seeing an American! I love love love your Spanish and you inspire me to continue studying. I love Isla Mujheres as well but in the past years it has become quite crowded. I used to chase down this street vendor who sold amazing Gorditas . He made them vegetarian for me with pickled onions and cheese. Great job Maddie! You are on fire with these awesome videos😊😊😊

Hi Maddi Gold! Just want to say thank you for your beautiful videos. We have been fans of yours for 2 years now. Your videos helped us before we moved to Playa del Carmen. We moved in August of 2022. We are still watching your videos and enjoying them. We haven't had a chance to move about Mexico a lot yet because we have 5 dogs. We just wanted to drop a line and say , keep up the good work! Take care. Teresa and Corinne.

I found Isla 15 years ago. I now stay 6 months per visit. It used to be a bargain to stay here. However, since the end of covid, inflation, and the weak dollar it's become about 30 to 40%% more expensive. Also, at times too crowded with day trippers from Cancun. For extended stays, you can take the bus around Isla for 20 pesos. Hop on/off from anywhere on the bus route. Just flag them down. Also, street tacos can be found for 25 pesos. Chedraui(mid-island) is like Walmart and will be the cheapest for food, alcohol, swimwear ect. CARM is the best for ground transport to the airport and tours in Cancun.

Glad to see you being your happy self back and enjoying Isla Mujeres.

Isla Mujeres is my most favorite place on earth. We’ve been there seven times and will hopefully be going again within the next few months.

Fantastic video! Looks like Maddie Got Her Groove Back❤. Your wonderful sense of humor is a Joy! Am so happy to see you smiling and laughing so much!

Maddie, you are radiating with happiness. Thank you for the spirit that you give your videos and share with us. thank you, thank you, thank you...

Beautiful sunset! Mexico, Costa Rica, and Kauai always have a gorgeous sunset! Speaking of gorgeous water, and being so close to Tulum, I am assuming you've seen the amazing color of that beach!

Wow, You've found heaven, Maddie. Great v/log.

Great video, Maddie! The women in the store you bought the snorkel mask were very funny and of course I loved all the iguanas.

As you said Maddie, “Life is good”. I loved the music you used throughout your video. I’m so glad you enjoyed your visit. And you finally met up with your friend 😊Thank you for the share

Excellent job, Maddie in showing Isla Mujeres. We enjoy watching your videos because you like to explore and give us a glimpse of the true side of things. I've never been there but plan to go there one day after watching this video. I loved the hotel and the color of the water. Feels like paradise.

Great video! Thanks for the reminder of how thoroughly delightful Isla Mujeres is: the anti-Cancun--and that Mar Bella meal looked superb. Ive stayed on North Beach a couple of times, and ventured south--but now I see the beautiful experience of staying on the South side. ❤All of the food❤

Wow Maddie! Great video! You are really coming into your confidence and skill as a videographer. Great location and now on our must visit list.

Loved this video! I’ve been to Isla Mujeres before about 20 years ago but watching your video made me want to come back and explore it again. Great video Maddie ❤

I look forward to your videos. I love Isla. The north side has the best snorkeling with the calmest water I have ever seen in all of Mexico.

One of my fav places ever!!!!! Been there a few times. So glad you went.

Boy did I fall in love with that Isla. 100% going back many more times. Thanks for the tip on the nice hotel.

Nice video Maddie!! I have been praying for you to be safe from harm's way. 💛

I was there in 1994. Cancun, Cozumel, and Isla Mujeres. Even went to Chichen Itza, when you could still walk up to the top. It was amazing. I was in Cancun and Cozumel in 2016 but didn't make it to Isla Mujeres at that time. They all have a special charm about them. I like Cancun for the Ruins and the Cenotes. I like Cozumel for the water and snorkeling. But I like the places you have shown us that most of us aren't familiar with. I hope to see more beautiful Mexico destinations.

You seem so incredibly happy! ☺

I have been back 12+ times. I have given much thought to buying a reinterment home on the island. I LOVE IT. Thanks for the video.

I traveled to Isla Mujeres in the 80's backpacking. It is unrecognizable. Kinda breaks my heart. Then just some palapas on the beach and some open air family food stands. I wish I could go back in time!!

Hi Maddie. Thx for sharing this. Sounds like the paradise there.............😉

Thankyou Maddie my husband and I stayed Isla in 1980. It certainly has changed since then, however still a beautiful island 💕

I have been watching this channel and your old channel woth my wife as we may be splitting our time in Mexico soon. Your content has vastly improved since going solo, we both feel that way.
