My husband and I love mexico and would love to go back with our daughter. But of all the times I have been there I think we only have riden in one or two cars with seatbelts. I would be terrified of getting in a car accident with my daughter and not having seat belts in the car. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/tell-me-about-your-mexico-all-inclusive#post-2311893 Tue, 06 Oct 2015 14:19:37 +0000 sapphire 2311893@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@youboots: thanks! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/tell-me-about-your-mexico-all-inclusive#post-2311817 Tue, 06 Oct 2015 13:19:43 +0000 youboots 2311817@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@sapphire: I have boon to all 3. I would do Cabo. It's flat and really walkable and very American friendly. PV is where we went on our honeymoon it more authentic, there are more hills and it's more spread out. I only went to Mazatlan on a cruise. We plan to take T to Cabo when she a little older for the same reason- easy flight from the west coast. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/tell-me-about-your-mexico-all-inclusive#post-2311765 Tue, 06 Oct 2015 12:41:52 +0000 lilyann 2311765@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We stayed at the St.Regis in PV with our kids (DH won a trip at work), it was not very kid friendly-stairs everywhere, not a very nice playroom and it only included breakfast. I know this probably wasn't very helpful but I do not recommend St.Regis, ha. Good luck! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/tell-me-about-your-mexico-all-inclusive#post-2311713 Tue, 06 Oct 2015 11:32:59 +0000 sapphire 2311713@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@youboots: thanks for the thoughts. I think we're going to go for the Baja coast so either Cabo/PV/Mazatlan because of the shorter flight from Seattle. I know not as beautiful as the Carribean Coast. Have you been to any of those places? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/tell-me-about-your-mexico-all-inclusive#post-2309316 Fri, 02 Oct 2015 19:24:05 +0000 Tanjowen 2309316@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I have discovered that the small boutique all inclusive - where they have taken old condos and turned them into hotels - work very well for small kids. We did NYX Cancun, and had a 2 bedroom apartment, which was perfect because it was nice to put baby to bed and be able to hang out and watch TV!</p> <p>Pros: The food is amazing. There is one restaurant and limited options, but it isn't bland and there was enough variety for our short stay. The staff loved our LO and would entertain him and bring him special food at meals. They have a baby pool my LO could stand up and run around in, and the beach area was amazing. </p> <p>Cons: LOTS of stairs and limited elevators. We didn't do a stroller so it wasn't a problem. No room service, which kind of sucked, but the room had a fridge so we took food to go from the restaurant. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/tell-me-about-your-mexico-all-inclusive#post-2309302 Fri, 02 Oct 2015 19:02:53 +0000 winter_wonder 2309302@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We stayed at Barcelo in Riviera Maya. Loved it! So beautiful and I love how convenient all inclusives are! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/tell-me-about-your-mexico-all-inclusive#post-2309277 Fri, 02 Oct 2015 18:38:02 +0000 ChitownRo 2309277@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Wasn't all inclusive, but we enjoyed the Westin Lagunamar in Cancun, particularly bc they were condos. We could put LO to bed in the bedroom and hang out in the living room. Gorgeous pools. Normal pretty Cancun beach. Fair food </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/tell-me-about-your-mexico-all-inclusive#post-2309223 Fri, 02 Oct 2015 16:55:42 +0000 photojane 2309223@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@sapphire: Sorry I didn't respond in your other thread! I got the notification, but forgot to respond!</p> <p>We stayed at the Park Royal in Cozumel. It was really affordable, but the food was mediocre. It wasn't awful, but I've definitely had better. The grounds, though, were stunning. The polls were fabulous and the beach was small and the rock formations made it really shallow, so it was PERFECT with a young toddler. You can also snorkel right from the beach, and it's good snorkeling-lots of fish! We had a car for the week and drove around to different beaches too, and there are some really incredible places on the island. I love Cozumel!</p> <p>(first pic is the resort beach, second is just another pretty spot on the island)</p> <p>[attach=1879/15/nvm4wu.600x600.image.jpeg]</p> <p>[attach=1879/15/nvm4wv.600x600.image.jpeg] </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/tell-me-about-your-mexico-all-inclusive#post-2309218 Fri, 02 Oct 2015 16:42:23 +0000 youboots 2309218@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Be really careful to read independent reviews about the food. I went to one in Cancun for a wedding last year (so I did not choose the spot). The food was awful. I would have gladly paid double to have better food. The buffet, individual restaurants, snack bar, everything. I did like Dreams Tulum, I was there for a different wedding a few years ago and the food was much better.</p> <p>I've traveled in Mexico quite a bit. You could do something small and contained like La Isla Mujares or Cozumel that is causal and easy to eat a lot of differences. Playa Del Carmen is great too. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/tell-me-about-your-mexico-all-inclusive#post-2309206 Fri, 02 Oct 2015 16:33:25 +0000 snowjewelz 2309206@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I didn't actually stay there but I was right in between them. The Beloved, and the new Finest are both family friendly and all inclusive (FYI we stayed at Excellence Playa Mujeres). Loved that stretch b/c it's private, less crowds, etc. I'd absolutely go back there with LO. </p> <p>The only con is that it's a long-ish car ride from the airport since it's away from the main strip. But that's seriously the only con! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/tell-me-about-your-mexico-all-inclusive#post-2309194 Fri, 02 Oct 2015 16:25:31 +0000 sapphire 2309194@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Thinking about a trip to Mexico next year with DH and LO who will be 12-18 months...thinking all inclusive to make it easy. Tell me about your kid friendly all inclusive! </p>
