We ended up walking the 2 miles down the road to the attraction I just happened to notice was close by (Xcaret). It turned out to be an awesome day! This is a place for everyone (all ages, all activity levels) - they have tons of amazing animals, swimming with dolphins (costs extra), snorkling through cenotes, a mayan village, shows, music, museum, rotating scenic tower, aquarium etc. etc. there is literally too much to do in one day. I won't say it's super cheap- but besides the ruins they are all about the same price range (80-100 USD) I have also been scuba diving in Cozumel which was great as well. The ruins are very cool but I could see kids getting bored after awhile (we went to Coba which is neat because it's the only pyramid that you can walk up...but it is VERY steep.) I will say this would be the most cost-effective outing. (8-10 USD to get in + ~30 if you want to add a private tour). My least favorite excursion we did was shopping at playa del carmen. It was dirty, hot, and basically every vendor sold the same things over and over again. This is very much the "city" area but I prefer the jungle and serenity of Riviera Maya.... we did visit a Mega which is their Walmart (on steroids) which was kind of cool...but I would have skipped it in a heart beat for any of the other places. This year were doing Rio Secreto which looks really awesome & the ruins at Tulum/Tulum Beach. Good luck - you are going to love Palladium - I thought it was very scenic especially at night- don't miss the spa, even if you don't get a service the pool is awesome. I also LOVED feeding some of the cute little animals around the resort. I will say it was worth the upgrade to stay in the Royal Suites- if you haven't done so already. Thank you so much Sehausle! This is very helpful! Xcarat sounds pretty fun! We have about 30-40 guests, so for us to cover, it might be costly. Maybe we can throw in ruins trip. Thanks!!
  2. Hi Sehausle, Just a person I need! I hope you can help in excursion. I have a wedding in June 2014, and want to know what kind of excursions are there for all of us. We are thinking as a thank you gift, we can have an excursion for all our group (we have a a little group, around 25-30 people). Another ideas we have is to have a separate excursion for adult groups (parents & relatives) and for younger crowds. From you experience, do you have ideas? Thanks!!!
  3. Hi Ladies, I've been eye sighting this site for some time now, and finally decided to join the account. I've finally booked our wedding on June 18th at Grand Palladium. It will be a catholic wedding. I fell in love with the church! Do any of the ladies married or will be married at Grand Palladium for a catholic wedding? I'm such a newbie here, I hope I can get some resources and info I've been corresponding with Grace so far, but I want to know if anybody here prepared wedding with her before? I want to know how she is. Does she help all the way in getting all the vendors? We booked our flight to goto Mexico on June 15 and have our wedding on the third day. I've heard there is a residency requirement of staying minimum three days prior to the wedding. Since we are getting married on the third day, I wonder if this is okay??
