Dreams Vista Cancun Golf & Spa Resort
So, I'm heading to Dreams Vista Cancun Golf & Spa Resort next month. Been looking at pictures – it looks amazing, right? My question is: how buggy is it, really? I'm deathly afraid of mosquitos and… more
It really depends on the time of year you're going. Mosquitoes are definitely a thing in Cancun, especially around dusk and dawn near any standing water. The resort should have a decent pest control program, but relying solely on that is risky if you're that sensitive to bites. Pack strong repellent, seriously. DEET is your friend. Don't skimp. I'd also suggest long sleeves and pants for evenings, even if it's hot. Better to be slightly uncomfortable than covered in welts. You'll probably be fine by the pool and beach during the day, but those little suckers are persistent.
Good point about the mosquitos! I hadn't even thought about that. Thanks for the heads-up on the DEET – I'll definitely be stocking up. Long sleeves and pants in the evening sounds like a plan. Better safe than sorry, I guess. Appreciate the advice!
Secundaria Memories?

Yeah, the murals at Secundaria Federal Juan de la Barrera are still there! My sister taught there for a bit, years ago. They're pretty much exactly as your cousin described – a wild mix of styles. Best time to see them? Probably during the day, when the sun hits them right. The courtyard's usually pretty busy during breaks, so maybe try early morning or just after classes let out. No hidden spots to speak of, it's a pretty open courtyard. But seriously, those murals are a sight. Enjoy the conference!
