Enjoyed your video of the Hyhatt Zilara yesterday. Thanks again. Have watched it twice already. I am happy to see they have umbrellas. All other reviews I had been reading say they don’t have them
They definitely do have them. I think they’re fairly new. Not brand new, they’ve been around for a while. I am glad you liked the video!! I have the updated room tours coming soon too.
They do not directly connect, but you just hop out of the swim-ups and into the bigger pool. So it’s not far, but no direct connection, no. I’m happy to help if you’re looking to book this hotel! Amy@amyfillinger.com
Greatly appreciate your review of both the Presidential Suite and Swim Up Suite. My only concern with the Swim Up suite is the lack of sunlight in the private pool area, which it looks like from the videos, that could be diminished. Any thoughts or perspectives you have on that would be greatly appreciated!
@@micahspikewcraven2913 you will love it! If you haven’t booked yet and need and help, let me know :) I always try to get my clients some extra amenities etc!
@@Amyfillinger Thank you, Amy! We did go ahead and book it directly through Hyatt as we are World of Hyatt members and I didn't see any other sites that had it less expensive (because it wasn't inexpensive! ;) ). We actually stayed at the property back in 2009 when it was the Royal so we're excited to return (to celebrate our 22nd anniversary!). Given that so much time had passed since we last visited, your video reviews were immensely helpful in the overall evaluation! BTW--I'm flagging you for our future travels as I've realized it's far easier to utilize someone like yourself than spend 12+ hours planning a trip like this on my own!
@@micahspikewcraven2913 oh no I could have booked it direct for you! Well that’s an option if you have it refundable. You’re right it’s pricey but I think you’ll love it. Either way I hope you have fun!!
That’s a tough question!! I LOVE Turquoize (adults only section) at the Ziva but it’s still a louder property outside of that area so for restaurants etc there are lots of kids. I’d say if you get an updated room at the Zilara (I just posted two of them!) it’s just as nice. Food-they’re both great! More options at the Ziva but for adults I’d still opt for the Zilara. Feel free to shoot me an email if you need more help deciding! Amy@amyfillinger.com
@@Amyfillinger How were you able to book the newly upgraded, renovated rooms? My boyfriend and I are planning to go to Cancun in August and we’re stuck between booking at Secrets The Vine or Hyatt Zilara. I do like Hyatt but their outdated rooms is not the selling point for me
@@daliarodriguez842 You can email me amy@amyfillinger.com I’ve gotten the updated rooms for clients before. I’m happy to help you if you need it! They don’t have them on the website but you can get them if you don’t mind a small upgrade fee! Secrets is great too, but the service at the Zilara is the best!
All-inclusive means dining and drinks are included. Some resorts have speciality restaurants that are not included, but typically just one. For this one, Chefs plate is only included for upper level room categories. Otherwise, all restaurants and food are included and they have 24/7 room service so you can eat any time!
Awesome review thanks!!
@@CobraCai02 you’re welcome! Let me know if you need any help booking and I’ll make sure to request the best rooms, etc 😊

Great. Excited about that video too. Looking forward to seeing it
It is black with zipper on bottom where your shoes are stored.
@@cynthiaweyhrauch9896 amzn.to/3ToqV9o it’s this one!
Thanks so much that’s the one. Have a great day
Thanks for the updated tour and review. Do the swim up suites connect to either of the larger pools?
They do not directly connect, but you just hop out of the swim-ups and into the bigger pool. So it’s not far, but no direct connection, no. I’m happy to help if you’re looking to book this hotel! Amy@amyfillinger.com
@@Amyfillinger Thanks Amy. I'll email you about what I'm looking to do. Thanks
@@chatanp sounds good! Happy to help.

You do lose the sun in the swim-ups before the main pool, but it’s typically sunny from morning until mid-afternoon so still a good part of the day!
Thank you so much, Amy! We went ahead and did the Pres Suite.

Loved the video! Which do you think has nicer food/accommodations for 2 adults between the ziva and zilara?
That’s a tough question!! I LOVE Turquoize (adults only section) at the Ziva but it’s still a louder property outside of that area so for restaurants etc there are lots of kids.

Why not show the actual beach area? Just a suggestion
Some of my other videos highlight the beach a bit more. This was a resort tour, so not as focused on the beach but it’s in there some!
Wait, is and/or are the rooms renovated? Because your video shows different decor compared to what I see online.
No they are not, well for the most part! I have videos of the renovated rooms but there are only a handful of them.

I am interested in the carry on bag u have. But I can not find the description button when I watch your videos . How do I find it?
Which bag? I have a few that I’ve used. I can post a link. Just let me know which one
Is tipping preferred in pesos or dollars?
Most of the time they tell me USD is preferred
@@Amyfillinger Thank you very much!
@@josephhutchison6388 you’re very welcome!
all inclusive means, all these restaurants are included in the reservation? or we have to pay separated
