Just in case you might think that the global pandemic was slowing resort development, it would seem nobody’s stopping anything in Cancun and the Riviera Maya. I recently visited the newly opened Hyatt Ziva Riviera Cancun the first week of operation and it certainly didn’t disappoint. The service, food, activities and décor a 5 star delight! Not to mention the 9 pools, 17 restaurants and stunning beachfront.  It is so encouraging to see the all-inclusive industry continue to expand with many new properties by several organizations slated to open this year and early 2022. 

All-inclusive Resorts in the Caribbean and Mexico are offering the safest and easiest travel experience.  

For now, all travelers entering the US will need to acquire a negative antigen test before boarding the plane. Sounds like a hassle, right? Wrong if you chose the right hotel!  Most of the all-inclusive luxury properties are offering the test on property at no cost to the traveler!  The concierge sets up your test a day or two before you depart, and you receive your negative result for you to present to the airlines. And even more important and impressive, if you would test positive, these resorts will keep you in a designated area of the resort for the 10-14 days of quarantine with meals delivered all at no cost!  

Luxury all-inclusive resorts such as the one mentioned previously are pulling out all the stops to provide a safe and healthy vacation environment. Boost your immune system with the vitamin D, fresh air, exercise, and positive energy! ENJOY!!
