...And tired of the same Florida & Alabama beaches you have been visiting all year? Have you considered travel to Mexico? There are a LOT of amazing 5-star, all-inclusive resorts that can accommodate everyone in your family of all ages, or even a couples-only getaway.
Cancun and Cabo San Lucas are two of my favorite spots to visit, especially right now, primarily because they are both such an easy destination vacation! Many airports service directly to both cities directly, and if not directly a quick layover is easy to manage.
Why Mexico? Mexico has no entry requirements and according to Travel Weekly "Mexico is open. It's welcoming. And it has been a best seller." If you really need some more convincing, I personally stayed in Cabo San Lucas myself and cannot rave enough over the experience. The safety protocols in place are there to help you feel comfortable, so you can truly melt into the atmosphere and relax. You deserve it.
Don't just take my word for it though, check out some of the amazing all-inclusive offerings you can treat yourself to below.
These resorts are perfect for a multitude of reasons. For those looking to rekindle the romance after months of stress, for honeymooners, for wedding groups looking to knock two birds with one stone. There are plenty of reasons to visit, and plenty of amazing options that can fit within your budget.

If you are craving a vacation where you have NOTHING else to think about, then an all-inclusive vacation may be for you – even if you don’t drink alcohol. All-inclusive vacations are a true escape from the hustle and bustle of daily life, without having to worry what the bill will end up at the end of your vacation. There are no limitations when it comes to eating out in the finest restaurants, enjoying live music and entertainment – you can truly do whatever your heart desires, whenever you want to do it.
I am just getting back from an amazing vacation in Cabos San Lucas myself, and I can't speak highly enough about the experience there. From a sunset catamaran to El Arco, the the arch of Cabo San Lucas, to stepping into the crystal blue seas, Cabo boasts gorgeous Mexican architecture and amazing hospitality. This experience isn't just reminiscent of solely Cabo, but the entire Mexican peninsula. No matter where you visit, you are guaranteed a soul-replenishing vacation.
Broaden your horizons and visit somewhere new! And what better way to do so than with an all-inclusive resort, a place where you don't have to worry about a thing while you're there? The only thing you'll need to stress about is what cocktail you want to drink by the pool 💁♀️

Enjoy the little things.
