Stuck in resort during a Category 3 Hurricane Grace | Isla Mujeres, Cancun Mexico

- Hurricane Grace makes landfall in Mexico, Isla Mujeres and ended up becoming a category 3, almost like Hurricane Ida. This is our first time experiencing/being in a hurricane. The winds and the waves were really loud and during the worst part of the storm, it got a little bit scary, especially being so close to the water and seeing massive waves right behind us. We lost internet both on our phones and hotel wifi, no running water and electricity cutting off every now and then. The walkway to the villas part of the resort got completely destroyed as well as the beach section where all the chairs and beds are. But the next day the resort and the beach already started recovering and I estimate it would take only about 2 weeks until everything is back to normal.
I have other videos filmed during this trip, but I wanted to edit this first because I feel it would be more useful and informative at the current time. Please subscribe and checkout later for more vlogs on Isla Mujeres and other travel destinations.

Watching this now. With a trip planned for 7/12. Thanks for this. They're wrong for no bar and that super loud music through that trauma🥴
Absolutely love💕 both you and your Shares Many thanks
Was recommended this channel by some friends at CNN, totally worth it
Love the channel !
Real vlogging and not just another stupid travel channel .. I can dig it
Siiick, thanks for the post
Wow this is amazing
Such lovely 💗️
Is it me or is this like the only CZcams channel with authentic people ?
Greetings from London !
WHY is that DJ playing disco house in this aftermath?! It's so out of place.
haha they played it loud too, but its whatever they're trying to keep heads up, i feel bad for the people that are barely checking in
nice happy afternoon 😀
great!💝 prime😊
Que bello ese bebé kabai akachan 😻💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕
I would love to visit here!
Ok ok , good footage
Yes, this is very good
Thanks for the great hurricane tour🌬🌬🌬what month is it? I'm coming down next May. Cant wait. Hope you still had fun.
It's unfortunate this happened on your vacation but I had to laugh when you said the VIP area doesn't look very VIP At least you made the best out of the last day Cheers
Hope Mia Reef gives you a good discount for next time!!!! Glad to see you guys being positive despite the situation. A lot of people turn ugly in those situations that honestly are out of everyone’s control. Great Video. Thx. Im hoping Mia Reef is back in good shape by December
no discount 😅, but it got pretty rough without power and running water for the first half of the day (can't flush toilet haha), fortunately the storm passed after one day, but if it lasted longer it wouldve been a different story.
Ok, let me chime in. Category 3 Hurricane- not even close, it was 1. Playa destroyed? Nope, just a bunch of tress down, power out for about 6 hours. I live here, and this kind of mishearing crap annoys me. Why would a resort give anyone a “discount” is beyond me. It amazes me the “bubble” people live in - you take this risk when you travel - it is not the resorts issue. They have enough costs to deal with trying to get their resort operational again after they hit.
Discount? lol, it's hurricane season. Beware when you're heading out there around June to November, The island hotels doesn't control mother nature.
My wife and I are going there next summer!
Tropical storm 🏝 🐠
Im up for a journey out there!!
What month was this? Planning to go in October 😢
Bro no way I was there the same time you were lol the workers got to it so fast you got give them creds
what a small world, I'm sure we ran into each other. and yes, the workers did their best
Way different than I’d imagine
Went here last year with my family
Yuuum wonder how good the food is out there
I was here for Hurricane Grace as well - to say this was a category 3 is Hurricane is very misleading. It was a category 1, blew hard for 4 hours and then left. It did some minor damage, the power and water went out as well. Post Hurricane, the people mobilized and quickly cleaned up the mess completely within 3 days.
LIKED COMMENTED AND SUBSCRIBED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Post some enchanter tips and tricks please!
Heard plane tickets that directions are crazy expensive...
Oh man I’m going there next week :/
Mia Reef? they're working hard to fix the structures, but unfortunately the sea weed will probably linger for another month. you can just walk around the corner towards the Privilege resort, that place is clear
I was once stuck in a hurricane in Mexico.... Had to say about 4 extra days .... It was only a level 1....
dang, i'm not sure whats worse, extra 14days if you test positive for covid, or extra 4days in the storm.
The place was just wrecked by a hurricane and you just keep asking when your conveniences will be back up, like they're supposed to know. How about asking if there is anything you can do to help?
Its very fortunate that this happened on your vacation. Maybe you will realize how much you depend on internet and start using it less, you may enjoy other things- storms are beautiful! Plus you will get a LOT more mileage out of this vacation than if everything had gone perfect. No we did not get destroyed in the Riviera Maya.
What an odd comment?
hopefully they recover
In a situation like this, where you can't even really leave, and the hotel can't even provide most of the basic amenities, what do they do as far as charging you?
no discount or refund, its a weather event that they couldnt control, i couldnt really blame them, the water not working did get annoying though, we couldnt poop 💩
@@EatandSnorkel I might also consider pooping an uncontrollable "weather event", so I would be pooping anywhere I could!
What resort is this?
Mia Reef in Isla Mujeres
How is the temperature out there?
super hot
Isn’t this were Anthony bourdon went?
Did the hotel gave you any type of incentive or discount?
nope, and i feel bad for the people that checked in the day before
@@EatandSnorkel wow. That tells a lot about the management of that ‘resort’. Thanks.
Hey Ed - of course they are not going to give you a discount. This is the type of risk you face when traveling- they had nothing to do with a Hurricane bearing down on them.
That's what travel insurance is for. The hotel didn't cause the hurricane. wtf?
Seeesh ok ok
Only if I could afford to travel the world =(
If I subscribe, do I get invited on your next trip ?!
sure
COVID totally made me not want to travel at all, like imagine just getting stuck somewhere half
Love that sweet babe 💖💘
Know where im going once im vaccinated.. lol
"Destroys" Playa Norte??? Total clickbait.
lets watch it together when it premieres
Thank you for your input, I went ahead and changed the title.
I live here in Playa. Who is this joker putting up this crap? Category 3? Nope, it was a 1. Playa destroyed, nope, things quickly got cleaned up and life quickly resumed.
You wanted to know what F*%^ was going on?? It was a hurricane happening, you could’ve easily taken a dump in the ocean if you needed to, you don’t seem
Like you’re that fancy
Ehh don’t want to travel there lol
It’s a beautiful island
This is not true!!!!!!! I and my family were in Playa del Carmem.
Yes, I agree - we were here as well, and it was Not a Category 3 Hurricane- only a 1
What a joke ahaha
