    Me! We went for our honeymoon and loved it so much we went back last year and are saving to go back again for our anniversary this year! Mexico addicts. Stayed at the same place both times and will again it was fab. Riu Tequila in Playa Car. Theres so much to do excursions wise, we still havent done all of it in our our two visits its such a lovely place, highly reccommended. I would reccommend Playa del Carmen rather than Cancun if you want "real Mexico" as Cancun is very touristy and more like Miami we thought, lots of high rise hotels, clubs, night life, shopping etc but it depends what you are after. Playa is quieter more romantic and for couples.

    Aw that looks amazing!!!

    We went in October 12 to Playa Del Carmen - Ocean Maya Royale. It was amazing!! Was a lovely hotel.

    There was some cheesy entertainment during the day (I know that's not for everyone!) I really can't lie by the pool all day every day, so was good to have some random entertainment. Also shows at night but these were a bit hit or miss! As VP said Playa is also well placed to do lots of trips! We did Xe Ha and Coco Bongo. The food was good and all the staff were superb.

    Second the opinon that Playa Del Carmen is honeymoon land rather than Cancun - party like you are 19 again. (Man Friend would happily do this, he's a saddo!)

    We went there too!!! How funny. We loved it, even the cheesy entertainment! I won the singing comp and H won Mr Mexico by drinking too much Tequila. I would love to go back but the flight was vile.

    We went to Delphinus and Coba which were near and relatively easy to get to. We also went into Playa a few times.

    Hi,

    This is the hotel we stayed in, amazing and so relaxing and romantic, as for Cancun yes its busy but the hotel is not in the middle so still very relaxed and quiet so up to you if you go into the centre for clubs etc..I would go back in a minute if I holidayed in the same place twice.

    Mexico is amazing, l would love to go back! We went in 2007 and stayed at the Riu Yucutan at Playa Del Carmen. Excellent hotel, perfect location and gorgeous beaches.

    We went to the Riu Palace Mexico which is opposite the Riu Tequila and it really was great- could not fault it at all. I would second the recommendation on Playa del Caremen rather than Cancun.

    Thanks everyone for the advice.

    We've gone with Excellence Playa Mujeres, I'm not too sure why it just appealed to us the most!

    Soo excited now!
