From Cancun to Cozumel
Posted on July 17, 2010 by Jeni Larson in Cancun, Caribbean, Chichen Itza, Cozumel, Featured, Mexico
Possibly my new favorite city in Mexico, Cancun is definitely a place I would like to frequent. The beaches were true “white sand beaches” and not nearly as crowded as I had expected. The waters… if I didn’t know any better, I’d say someone photo shopped an image right on my sunglasses, creating multiple layers of perfect turquoise paired with pristine blue skies. Really, this entire trip was full of scenic surprises…

Cancun: The last supper…
Posted on June 23, 2010 by Jeni Larson in Cancun, Caribbean, Mexico
Saying goodbye to Cancun, we ordered half the menu through Le Meridien’s room service and bidding farewell to our favorite evening valet. Tomorrow afternoon we catch a flight out of Cancun to Puerto Vallarta… but I have a feeling Spoiled Traveler will be back.

In playa del Carmen http://twitpic.com/1xa9ct

Playa del Carmen made me wish I was staying longer. We had booked a luxury tour from Cancun to Cozumel, and only stopped in Playa del Carmen briefly. What we saw was a tranquil, sun drenched beach paradise. Unlike Cancun, the beaches had calm waves, and few people lining them. The atmosphere alone was relaxing.

Our tour guide told us about the nearby ruins of Tulum and Coba. Apparently the Mayan ruins in these areas are quite impressive and warrant another trip to Quintana Roo so I’ll be open for another visit in the future.

Taking a luxury tour to Playa del Carmen and then Cozumel – booked through MyCancunTours.com http://twitpic.com/1x9d1t

Hmmm… I haven’t yet figured out what was luxury about this tour but it was still fun. We were picked up at our resort, Le Meridian in Cancun at 8 am by a large well air conditioned bus with very comfortable seating. We had been the last stop apparently, as our next stop was merely to transfer to our next bus, going to Playa del Carmen.

Cancun vacation extended

Cancun vacation extended… Heading to Cozumel and Playa del Carmen for another week http://twitpic.com/1wux80

I can’t believe I planned a mere week in Cancun! It’s just not enough time so I’ve booked another week and am planning to stick around. I’ve seen Cancun, the Chichen Itza ruins of the Yucatan, and the beautiful Isla Mujeres. Now I’ve booked a luxury tour to Playa del Carmen and then ferry to Cozumel. Our tour will then take us to the Cozumel ruins, and in a glass submarine to see the 2nd largest reef in the world.

Itza Chichen in Chichen Itza – or maybe Itza Chicken…. driving 2.5 hours from Cancun to Chichen Itza to see Mayaland http://twitpic.com/1wj5i9 was a great idea!

As long as I can remember, I’ve wanted to see the pyramids at Chichen Itza. When I moved to Mexico, I remember being disappointed that the Yucatan was so far away. A day is possibly enough time to see the entire park, but I would say it is well worth it to book a room, or private villa at Mayaland hotel. A guide can be hired for a private tour of the ruins at the front desk. $60 an hour, and the tour runs around 2.5 to 3 hours.
