We stayed at the Aventura Spa Palace, which is in the Mayan Riviera (about 90 minutes south of Cancun). From the moment we stepped onto the resort we were humbled by the service of the Mexican staff there. They were carrying our bags, offering us smoothies, escorting us to our room... and then in the restaurants they pulled out our chairs for us, laid our napkins on our lap, and were great waiters. Oh, and when we were relaxing next to the pools or beach, the staff would come along and ask us if we wanted anything to eat or drink.
When we weren't enjoying ourselves at the resort, we spent time going on tours. We went to Chichen-Itza (Mayan ruins), snorkeling, and swimming with the dolphins. Each tour was also amazing!
We also had the delight of meeting a couple other honeymoon couples... we ate dinner together, sipped martinis together, and sang karaoke together. What a fun blessing!
Well, like I said before, it's hard to put our vacation into words, so now I'll show you some pictures that will hopefully help capture it a bit more...
