- SINCE FILMING THIS RESORT THE PALACE ON ISLA MUJERES HAS CLOSED!!!
In this video we take you to Isla Mujeres and tell you all the tips and tricks that you need BEFORE going there. I wish I had this video before taking this trip. We take you every step of the way from leaving the resort, taking the bus to the ferry terminal, buying the ferry tickets, taking the ferry and then arriving onto the island. #laislamujeres #islamujerespalace #allinclusiveresorts
Watch the entire video to avoid some major pitfalls when visiting the island! Don't forget to check out some of our other videos about resorts in cancun:

I have been in Cancun for 6 times and once i visited Isla Mujeres...I said Goodbye to Cancun right away. So now Cancun is just my transit. Love IM.
Yes I need to go again and experience it better!
I did the same thing. I only land in Cancun and travel elsewhere. Next week I am doing 2 wks around the Yucatan. Valladolid, Tulum , Cozumel, and then Isla.
So fun!
This place is the best. We have been there many times and got engaged there as well! Lots of memories. You can't just do a day trip...your going to miss so much of the island. This video shows exactly what NOT to do. Which is ride the outside perimeter of the island. The actual downtown area with the bars, restaurants, and shops are interior to the island by playa norte on Hidalgo street
Thank you so much!! It was actually a local who told us to do that lol. But your advice is so much better. Definitely need to experience this island the right way soon!!
Respectfully - this video sounds like one long complaint after another. I stayed in Isla back in July and I am going back in January and had such a different experience than you, even factoring in that you went for just the day. I was very shocked when at the end you said you enjoyed yourself, after it being too hot, too crowded, to full (satisfied) to eat or drink, to many scammers, nothing to buy, crowded ferry....... Go back and maybe spend one night, the hotels have such a great price range, there is snorkeling, Tortugranga , the Underwater Museum, the nice beach clubs, the beautiful Playa Norte. Have dinner on the strip on the north side with all the restaurants, or one of the beach front restaurants. I thought I would get some tips, well the bus was a good tip, but the rest of the video fell short. Good luck.
Thank you so much! Yes from all the comments I have to agree with you. I should have done more research before going. I had just need to Isla Saona in DR so I think I had some preconceived notions for sure. Thanks for the comment! It helps me improve my content and I’m going back next week but only for a day trip but I’ll be sure to hit the right spots this time. 😊
Too much complaining even in the voice there was nothing positive!
I’m so sorry that’s the way it came across! I really didn’t have a first good experience and we were given instructions and suggestions from the locals and the resorts. Just trying to prevent others from the same experience! I went back and had a fabulous experience!! Thanks again! 😃
@moestu thanks for the great feedback, please could you tell me the name of the resort you stayed in on Isla Mujera
Yes would love to know too!!
We stay on the island all the time and just Love it heading there in a few weeks ! It takes some time to figure the best times to avoid day trippers and the night life is amazing!
I can’t wait to do it right!! Thanks for the comment to help everyone else have a better experience and information before going. I’m going back next week!!!
Thanks a lot for this awesome video. I’m definitely staying at the Palace in Cancun and can’t wait to visit both the Island and its sister hotel. Thanks a lot !
We appreciate you!! Can’t wait to hear about it
Love this been almost 26 years for me..I went twice in one 7 day visit to Cancun ...First day was Cinco di mayo i ask some natives if i could take pic as everyone was dressed up it to me was one of my best trips..golf carts are a must yes
Wow 26 years???? Amazing. I can’t wait to go back again ha ha
I used to go there and actually stay a week or so at a time on the island. Absolutely loved it. With watching your video, I will never go back there again. thank you for saving me from such a miserable overcrowded horrible beach experience. Perhaps Fiji instead. You are a lifesaver and a money saver!!! Well done. Isla Sucks!!
Awwww Well that wasn’t the point of the video! I just wanted people to avoid it during summer months possibly. You will read in the comments so many people who love it and that we missed alot
I loved Isla Mujeres! I stayed a little south of Cancun, our excursion gave us 4 hours on the island. Next time, I’m gonna stay on the island. Cruising the whole island with a golf cart is a blast. The beach was beautiful
It really is an amazing place. So small but so much to do! I definitely want to go back and spend more time there!!
Thanks for the very good informative video. Never have I ever heard someone call it “Play del Norte” or La Isla Mujeres” always just playa Norte and Isla Mujeres
Thank you! And this is such great input and information. Awesome comment. Thank you so much.
We loved our excursion from our hotel, well worth it and more.
Thank you for your honest review. I will be going to Playa in November 2022 and was considering a day trip to the island on our own. The trips from the resorts or online don’t really seem to allow enough time to actually explore the island itself. Based on your review and some of the comments if we decide to do a day trip it will be mid-week and maybe we will do an overnight stay at a cheap resort. Continued blessings and continued safe travels.
Awww thanks for watching!! Yes there a ton of great suggestions in the comments. We will be in Playa Mujeres in November 🤗🤗
Great Video, lots of helpful information!
Thank you!!
We look forward to your next video. I wish you would consider a stay on the island as you can not experience enough in one day
Thank you! Okay I will. I think you’re right!!
Love your illustration of the island. We’re going next week!
Thank you! Def read through the comments because it seems like I really missed a lot and you can get a lot of great tips from the comments!
@@3Days3Noches nice, I’ll do that!❤️
I would recommend take the Puerto Juarez ferry terminal, they have trip to the island every 1/2 hr- 1hr and it cost about $10 cheaper PP round trip, you can use the same bus R-2 to the ferry terminal from hotel zone.
Wow that’s amazing advice. Thank you!!
Just what i need it
I was interested in knowing how to get to the island 🏝️ thank you 🙏🏻
Thanks for watching!!
We stayed at the Grand Moon Palace and took a day catamaran tour trip to the island. Like many have said here, one day is not enough to really explore and enjoy the island. I want to take more time the next time we go back and really experience this beautiful island. They will be closing the Palace resort on Isla Mujeres soon and making it into a wellness resort/retreat.
I know. I can’t wait to go back again! Interesting about the Palace! I think that’s smart.
I’ve been to Isla 18 times, so I think my experience is very different from yours. I would say stay on Isla for at least 5 days stay at a boutique hotel. Enjoy the isla after 5 when all the day trippers have gone back to Cancun. You will have a totally different experience!
I can’t wait to go back then! What’s your favorite restaurant?
@@3Days3Noches Too many to list, but we loved Bobo's, Javi's Cantina, Olivia, and if you love pizza, then Mike's has authentic NY pizza! Delish!
100% Jenny! A day trip does Isla no justice.
I would say the same. Whining about the bathrooms 🤦♂️ and this place is too small.
Please.. privilaged people dont know what they are talking about.
The channel was created to give out information to help people makes informed decisions. It’s not whining it’s observing 😁
Great video..ty very much!!!
Ty for watching!!
Amazing video!
Thank you!!! I know we were newbies but that’s how you learn!
Thanks for the great video! We are also staying at Sun Palace soon and want to trek to Isla Mujeres for a day trip. A couple of questions - how far is the IM Palace from Playa Norte beach? Was 2-ish hours enough to visit the beach and Palace? Finally, is there are place to shower/rinse off at the Palace after swimming in the ocean? We are planning a catamaran/snorkeling tour that allows 2.5 hours on the island and definitely want to visit the beach first then head to Palace to cool off and have lunch.
Thanks for watching! If you rent a golf cart it’s about 20 minutes depending on how busy the island is. It’s at the opposite side of Playa Norte. I only saw outdoor rinse off showers. The bathrooms we used which were outside when you first got there were just bathrooms but wondering now if they had some by the pool maybe too? It’s super tiny so not sure! Sounds fun! We did a few videos on Sun Palace too so check them out!!
Nice video. We stay 3 or 5 nights every november and not crowded at all. I think you saw playa centro crowded, not playa norte(main atraction). And youre right , the palace at isla lacks an adequate beach.
Thank you for watching!! Awwww good to know!!
I just spent 4 days on isla mujeres and it’s definitely a more authentic Mexican experience. I’m now in Cancun for 3 days and not sure I needed to be here. There’s so much American culture that I’m not feeling like I’m in Mexico. But I am still getting to work on my Spanish. Also the local bed n breakfast give a great food and service experience too. So walking to beach everyday is the thing to do. Will definitely look at more of your content because I want to see other parts of Mexico when I return in winter. It’s mucho calor este verano 😎
Thank you for watching! Yes I totally agree about Isla Mujeres being a more authentic experience! We like the All Inclusive because it just makes it easier to relax and not have to think about taking out your wallet and what and where you will eat every meal. Thanks so much for watching!!!
How’s the weather & seaweed? Im trying to use my SW companion but I can’t decide where to go as all the beachy destinations say it’s rainy season 😭
@@jessica82882 it was amazing. No seaweed in sight on isla mujeres. At playa del Carmen yes there was.
@@DrCrystalHarris thank you for responding. I have to let go of the “perfect weather” idea
Enjoyed your video. We usually visit Isla Mujeres in the fall, Playa Norte is a must-see! Just a beautiful beach. Don't go there on a weekend very crowded.
Thank you!! Yay you guys are making me excited to go back!
I do not know whether they have moved but I recall swimming with the dolphins there and it was a great experience.
Tip: try to keep the camera a bit more steady when filming. Thanks.
Roger
👍
Wow - You missed the best part of the Island. It's little downtown area that is 2 blocks wide and about 3 blocks long. Has Restaurants and bars. And You never went to other end of the Island. I stayed on Isla Mujeres for 2 weeks one time. It was only crowded in the middle of the day when You tourists would come over on a day trip. That is what You experienced. Stay on the Island for a few days next time - it's great - I loved Isla Mujeres.
Thank you so much!!! I definitely missed the best part it seems!!
Hello, where is this area you are talking about?
Yes tell us where in the little downtown area please 😁
@@3Days3Noches Hidalgo st
Do you have to show your passport to buy tickets or get on the ferry? Is it safe to leave your belongings on the beach when you swim in the sea?
You do not have to show your passport. Honestly I don’t know about the safety there while swimming
Hi, do you know if there is a website that list resorts that have sister properties u can access in either Cancun or Isla if you’re staying at one already?
I actually do not but maybe a travel agent would?
@@3Days3Noches ok thanks
😁😁
Thank you for a good visual of the island. You mentioned the crowds during the middle of summer, could you be more specific as to what months you are referring to ? As summer months in Mexico may be different than summer months in the USA ! Thanks again and by the way you look way cuter without your mask on 😀haha
Awwww ha ha thanks for watching. That’s a great question. We were there in July so I’m assuming they are the same!
I was sorry to hear theyre closing Isla Palace
I know! I could tell they were letting it go when I was there.
I was a "big resort person" for years but due to the unpredictable seaweed, I've started to go to Isla Mujeres.It's true that many of the resorts are not as upscale as Riviera Maya/Cancun but there magic on this island if you take the time to discover it. For example, we went to the Women's Bead Cooperative to support the women and children who make beaded jewelry and to Isla Animales where you can play with dogs hoping to catch the next flight to the US. Take a look at the AirBnBs and Casa de los Suenos on the South Side. We stay a few days on North Beach for the beach and the party then go to the south side for a more chill vibe. It's worth a second look!
Omg this sounds amazing!!! I definitely will!! Thanks for the recommendations
Great tips wish I had done that. I’m a huge fan of isla for future trips
Do the beaches there have tons of seaweed at the resorts?
Which bus is going to and from ferry? R1 or R2?
Thanks
Hmmm I think it’s R2? But I would google it to make sure.
I'm staying on the island for a week in a couple months. How is crime wise?
It seemed pretty safe and probably typical of any tourist area when it comes to that!
I just wanted to know is there a place to park if you have a rental
Hi thanks for watching!! You can park the golf carts pretty much anywhere
This is a great review however this video was made at least a year ago and very, very limited as it only shows what you can do within max 3 hours on the Island. We live in Isla Mujeres and we have seen all sides and seasons of the Island and just like everything else that is changing all the time especially now the Covid is "done". The Palace resort is actually located in the Hotel Zone in Cancun but that is NOT downtown Cancun. The hotel zone bus is only 10 peso and will take you to the nearest Hotel Zona Ferry locations or downtown and from there you would have to take collectivo or taxi to Puerto Juarez. Now besides the ones she mention in the video there is a new ferry as well a more upscale version of the Ultramar ferry called Xcaret but they have limited hours of operations and only go back and fort from the Hotel Zona to Isla Mujeres. However with your Xcaret ferry ticket you get access to the best view from the top of the Cancun Scenic Tower.
There is a main ferry station in Puerto Juarez (Ultramar and Jetway) and just 5 min walk away the local ferry ( Jetway) that usually goes every other 30 min than Ultramar. So if you miss the ferry you can walk down and take the other one but do not have high expectations is not as nice as Ultramar. First ferry at 6am last ferry 11pm. If you want to bring your car over you need to go even further to Punta Sam cargo ferry station to take your car over what is 400 peso per ride including the fare of the driver. Now if you have Mexican residency you get discounts everywhere except here, for the car ferry the pay is same for everyone. If you get to the island around 9 am you could possible rent a golf car for the whole day cost is about $55-60 depending on the seasons and availability. Also you can rent scoters and bicycles! What the lady in the video did not see is there is very cute downtown area just a couple blocks in, by north beach with amazing restaurants and shops, live music , tequila tasting , mariachis, ice cream shops juice bars and more. There is soo much more of this cute little Island that we don't have the time to explain here but now we are inspired to create videos like this is explain the isnad a bit more as we understand how limited someone's experience could get if they don't know much about the Island and or don't have much time.
The beach here is one of the best in the whole Riviera Maya she did not make to the North beach what is incredibly beautiful and the "VIP" resort she was was not even close as it is a located another area so for that reason the beach is very different there. Do not miss North Beach when you go to Isla it is worth the trip.
There are so many other things to do on the Island: sunrise tour at the south point and ruins, Beach clubs at the Isla Hotel Zone, Downtown Shopping, Isla Mujeres Sign on the east end by north beach, dine out at and enjoy nightlife at downtown Avenida Hidalgo, Dolphin Discovery at the end of the lagoon, Zip line by the South Point, enjoy local restaurants and shopping in La Gloria in the middle of the island, sunset sail and more! Come visit us in Isla Mujeres you won't be disappointed. We hope to see you at Isla Mujeres.
Omg! This amazing input. Thank you so much! I agree we didn’t do it right!! Can’t wait to go back and try your suggestions. Thank you so much!!!
@@3Days3Noches We hope we could help and thank you so much! Let us be your guide!
Okay when we come back definitely!!
Which restaurants do you recommend for a nice sunset dinner? Do you walk the island at night when out drinking or is there taxis available at night? I assume it's not smart to rent a cart and drive after drinking... Also what's your favorite beach club? Thanks!
My wife and I go there every winter and thoroughly enjoy ourselves. Not busy at all.
Awesome. Can’t wait to go back. Any suggestions on where to go?
@@3Days3Noches Our first stay was at Privilege Aluxes and have gone there every year since. The north beach area is a nice area but higher in price. Once there you can look aground.
@@larrythompson5617 great thank you!!!
Ehhh. Give it a chance. Go stay near Playa Norte around April. Hit the street at night or watch a sunset on the beach.
Amazing! .)
I’m going back in November!!! Can’t wait
If you enjoy the comforts and attractions of large AI’s IM isn’t your thing. It’s more sleepy, immersed in local Mexican life, void of AC in Restos, and make yourself an experience kind of a place. Those who love it will defend it to the death!
I am going back in November to see it when it’s less crowded!! 😄
I agree. We’ve been there five times and are going back for our sixth in April. We’ve spent between 1 to 3 1/2 weeks there at a time, which has never been long enough. It is my paradise; it’s the best place on earth!
Stayed on Island 10 days. Highly recomend it. Much better than Cancun.
Thank you so much!!! I will try it!!
Is the marriot cancun resort close to your resort? We are going and I would. Love to go to Isla Mujeres. Thank you
Yes! That’s right downtown. Definitely go!
We stayed at the “cheap” half of the resort and it was very nice! The extra money for the water park didn’t seem worth it to us. We went in 2021. They only pitched the time charge during our initial orientation and we told them absolutely NO. It never came up again even when we booked excursions.
Nice!!!
Why is she giving us a heads up on locals also visiting the island???
😄. Just like I would do here in the states. So we have a few times that tourists will like visiting places better when it isn’t as crowded with locals etc. it’s about giving travel tips etc. I love Mexico and their people!
Going my first time ever to Mexico and out of the US in Feb 2023 over Valentines week. Staying in a All Inclusive. Best way to find transportation to and from the Isle? How about any other fees?
How exciting!!! Where are you staying? If you are staying in hotel zone then you could take the bus. If not our friend Nacho Tours is a good option. Or if you book an excursion they provide transport usually but then you have to share and pick up other passengers. Thanks for watching!
Also read through the comments on this video. A lot of great suggestions that we missed!!
@@3Days3Noches Riu Peninsula
Oh cool. I think you can take the bus from there to the Ferry. It’s only $1 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
@@3Days3Noches Awesome! Being it's my first time in Mexico I sorta want to get acquainted as to where I am etc. Maybe I will just rent a golf cart and go from there. Not plan any snorkeling etc.
Do the beaches there have tons of seaweed? I see people asking but no one ever answers.
It depends on time of year
Whats the difference between Isla Mujeres and Costa Mujeres? I got a resort at Costa Mujeres, is Isla any different vibe?
Hi! Yes much different. Isla Mujeres is a 4 mile island across the way. Costa Mujeres is north of Cancun in Mexico. Isla is a whole different vibe. Costa Mujeres will be chill and relax. Isla Mujeres is more of an island vibe and bustling with lots of people. We usually stay in Cancun and then go to Isla for a day.
@@3Days3Noches Thanks for the reply!
🥰🥰😋
Is it safe to leave your golf cart and explore?
We saw a lot of people doing that. Just take the key with you! We didn’t do it.
Very nice video awesome
Thank you so much for watching!!
Hi can you tell me how to go to Isla de Mujeres from Los Angeles CA
How can be a cheaper way to do this if we are 5?
I’ll appreciate your help!!
Very nice and informative video!!
This might be better answered by a travel agent but I’m assuming it would be cheapest to fly into Cancun and then either stay at a resort on the island or stay in Cancun somewhere and take a day trip there. I prefer staying in Cancun and taking a day trip!!
Cheaper way to get to Isla Mujeres from L.A.: Book a flight from Tijuana to Cancun. Drive to San Diego, park your car across from the CBX (cross border express), enter Tijuana airport from the US side of the border. Domestic flight costs 40-50% less than from LAX to Cancun :)
Wow this is awesome info. Thanks!!
Hello, do I need a Visa to go to Mexico ?
Hi! You do not woo hoo
Looking for a hotel with swim up bar for my daughter any places
On Isla Mujeres? We didn’t stay at any hotels there! But read through the comments! Lots of recommendations
So just a few things.. is not “La” Isla just Isla Mujeres and it’s Playa Norte not Playa “del” Norte. Also, there are three different ferry terminals such as Puerta Juarez and the car ferry as well to get there. We love Isla and kinda sad you didn’t even go to Playa Norte (we stay at Privilege Aluxes on Playa Norte every year) and the beach is one of the most beautiful in the world. And the reason the vendors are geared towards tourists is because wellll it’s a tourist island.. I mean just saying.. the people there that work on that island are like family and I think everyone should go and check it out!! See Punta Sur where the Mayan ruins are, the furthest point in Mexico, and Hidalgo street in Centro, visit the Melacon on the north east part and again Playa Norte!! White sands for days and the prettiest aqua water with no seaweed!! You’ll get the best massage on the beach as well for 600 pesos or $30 US for an hour! It’s amazing! and avoid the south side of the island where the palace is because the beach on that side is lagoons and not very pretty. This whole video just made me sad as it’s the worst representation of this amazing island!!
Thank you! You’re not the first person to say that! It was my experience that I had so I’m sad too because I wanted a better experience. These are amazing tips that will help others!!
We actually got the recommendations from a local and the resort so I wish we had gotten better info!!!
WOW...last time i took the bus was 5 cents over 40 years ago along the hotel zone..Thar $1.00 is gringo price i am sure.
Maybe lol!!!
Why pay $1 for the bus when you can pay $.67 USD by paying in pesos (12 pesos)?
To save .30? No thanks ha ha
Isla Mujeres is not a cookie cutter resort island. What you showcased were the gross tourist trap areas. Isla about discovering your own personal experience throughout the interior streets. The beauty and peace are there for the finding. Playa Norte is world class pristine beaches and the southern tip, Punta Sur, is wonderfully dramatic wth it's crashing waves and Mayan Temple.
Scratching the surface here reveals a depth that isn't for everybody.
I know. We missed the best part of the island 😢
@@3Days3Noches maybe another trip with more time to let it simmer around you. best to you
Yes!! I’m considering celebrating my 50th birthday there!!
$35 usd for 2 hrs for the golf cart?
Yup!! It might have been for 3 hours. It’s $55 for the day.
You said they allow you to have a backpack..., you cannot have luggages?
On the ferry? Yes many people did!
@@3Days3Noches Thank you.
🌞🌞
You should actually try to explore the island, you missed out on plenty!
I know! I’ve gotten alot of comments about it. Def will explore more next time.
Good thing to also know is that the island is HOT... hotter than the Hotel Zone. If you are walking from the ferry to the North beaches, the ocean breeze is blocked by the shops and it can be VERY VERY uncomfortable for seniors, young children or anyone who is sensitive to heat.
Also... if going for the day, GO EARLY. We skip the golf cart and go to the beach clubs just south of Playa del Norte. You pay $14 per person for the day for a lounge chair, umbrella and a small table right on the water in the sand. They have menus of actually REALLY good food and will serve you drinks all day on a tab. If you get to the beach clubs by around 9am you are guaranteed a spot and no crowds - it doesn't start to get busy until after noon- and we typically leave about 3pm to head back to the Hotel Zone. :)
Awesome advice thank you!
Thank you so much!
Nice i want to go
Yes it’s beautiful
I wil make a plan in november
What is your name ?
you forgot the best part of the beach area. next time go to mia hotel area that’s the most beautiful area without seen crowded people.
Thank you! Can’t wait to try it!!
This video sorta shows how not to enjoy Isla. Staying at the resort, not experiencing the local restaurants or bars, not actually going to Playa Norte. Not going to Punta Sur. Only driving down the busiest most crowded main road. No sunrises or sunsets.
I know!!!! So many people have commented on that and you’re right!!! We were following advice from locals at the resort Can’t wait to go back and do it right. Thanks for commenting! And any suggestions you have on where to go include them in the comments as well!!!
@@3Days3Noches Sunrise at Punta Sur, Walk along malecon. Sea glass hunt on Caribbean side beach. Stop in the local brewery. Stop in at Villa La Bella for a great view and a handmade Pina colada. Visit Isla Animals. Have breakfast at Mango's. Visit a beach club. Snorkel the area's waters. See a whale shark. Walk hidalgo street in the evening. See the under water museum. Have some great fresh seafood with your toes in the sand. Enjoy some music and a nightcap on El Patio's rooftop. Generally just go relax, live and be happy. Enjoy the people of Isla.
Thank you so much!!!! I will direct people to your suggestions!!
The bus ride is actually .52 cents per ride
Even more amazing;)
Must say this video is lacking some KEY things you must know before going. You need a drivers license to rent a golf cart. Also a lot of places including the main golf rental only take pesos. This is huge to know and could make or break your trip here. And a must try is the mangos with sauce and spices they will change your life!
Awesome thank you!!! Yes it’s definitely not our best video.
Great tips but the motion blur on the video makes it almost unwatchable.
Thanks for watching! Really? I haven’t gotten any comments about that.
WAY too many sweeping shots back and forth. Would be much better to not swing the camera back and forth.@@3Days3Noches
@user-ez8nd1lo4i thank you!
Terrible representation of Isla Mujeres. Hopefully nobody follows your recommendations and instructions.
Yes many people are commenting the same! Any tips would be great! I’m going back in November hopefully for a different experience. I didn’t have a great one or maybe I didn’t know where to go! Thanks for watching! All comments are good because it helps viewers make a better informed choice 😁
I thought her tips were super helpful! Thanks!!
Agreed!! Stuck up attitude!!
@@3Days3Noches graceful response.
Not my intention! I’m sorry I came across that way. Was just trying to give the perspective I was seeing! Will work on that!!! Again sorry.
This is the perfect example NOT to enjoy Isla. Lack of information. You missed the southern tip which is called The Garrafón, Playa Norte, everything! You ended up "having a drink" which you might as well have done anywhere else. Your fault, my friend, not Isla Mujeres'. Sincerely. From a local.
Yes you’re right! I’m going back in November to do it the right way!! Thanks foe the tips!!!
Informative but it's nice to mention cost MXC/USD
Thank you that’s a great tip!!! Will definitely do that next time!!
He wanted us to mention Mexican costs vs us
Negative nelly over here
I know!! After watching it did come off that way. Sorry :(. Was just trying to prevent others from making our mistakes lol
Not helpful because I won’t have access to the resort.
Actually they’ve closed the resort since we’ve been there!!
So you went to check out the other hotel lol
And to get a feel for the island. That resort is closed now :(
$10.00 Margarita?Believe me you are not getting Don Julio unless you see them pop it open..It's the biggest rip off....buy your liquor and take it with you,i have been doing it for decades,Tequila/rum/whiskey and Fresh coconut water with ice is much better than a margarita..
😊
Wow this video does nothing to show you the island 🤦♂️, there is so much more this island has to offer. This is the last video you should watch if you’re considering staying there. Downtown Isla is amazing, all kinds of bars, great restaurants, street performers and souvenir shops. North beach is great if you actually give it a try.
I know! We didn’t do this island justice it seems. We got instructions from the resort and a local and I guess they weren’t good ones or we didn’t follow them well ha ha. We went back and did a sunset boat tour which was amazing but am definitely going back to do it right.
What time do the bars usually close and which do you recommend?
@@waltino81 most bars close around midnight. Just take a walk down Hidalgo street and pick a bar. There’s tons of them and all of them have roll up doors so when the place is open you can just look right in without having to walk through a door so that’s nice. I would recommend Green Demon beach club for a day of drinking and eating at north beach. Renting a bed with an umbrella is only like $40 USD or something. Also would recommend staying in a VRBO or AirBnb. Make sure it’s on the north end of the island if you don’t want to drive. Most of what you’re gonna do is on the north end.
Why would anyone go to that dump when they could just go to Florida beaches? I have been to the Caribbean and Mexican beaches and every time I just could not wait to get back home to Florida.
It depends where you go in Florida!
Rent an AirB&B and a golf cart for a week in Isla Mujeres and 1) you will never stay at a resort again, and 2) you will never stay in Cancun again. Just FYI
Need to do this!!
Yall are crazy if you don't stay at Priv Alux
I have to check it out!!
8-10$ for a margarita? Nah
It was actually more than that! $8-10 isn’t bad
That wasn’t playa Norte, you were in the wrong playa
I know:(
You look amazing! Do you have an onlyfans account? 😅
No
