Mexico honeymoon - resort question
Good afternoon everyone - after a crazy vacation where we drove over 2,000 miles in one week, we decided we just want to relax for the honeymoon. We were thinking of going all-inclusive, which I originally did not want to do. Has anyone heard anything regarding these resorts:
Sun Palace
Aventura Spa Palace
El Dorado
THANKS!

Re: Mexico honeymoon - resort question
My parents usually stay at the Moon Palace Sunrise and thats where we will be going for our honeymoon. They are associated with the Adventura (which is adults only) and Sun Palace as well as a few others. Some of them (like the Cancun Palace) are more "party" hotels... I'm not sure about the Sun... but Adventura would be nice if you want adults only... we were lookng for more of a mix of things to do which is why we ended up choosing the Moon Palace in the end.
My parents LOVE their Moon Palace vacations and never want to come home!! It's definetly something to look into!

It looks really nice, however according to tripadvisor it doesn't have a beach, which is strange b/c it looks like it has a beach with calm waters on the website... any info? Thanks!

It has a man made lagoon. You can take a shuttle to sister properties and use their beach...although many people love the lagoon.

Were staying at the El Dorado for our HM I heard GREAT things about it. Check out tripadvisor.com they have reviews of all those places on there.
Were doing 5 nights there and 5 nights at Secrets Excellence.
Good Luck!!!
