Dreams Vista Cancun Golf & Spa Resort
I'm heading to Dreams Vista Cancun Golf & Spa Resort next month for my honeymoon. Seriously stressing about the seaweed situation on the beach. I've seen some photos, and it looks... intense. Anyon… more
We were there in June. The seaweed was definitely present, no getting around that. It wasn't everywhere all the time though. Some days were worse than others, and honestly, it depended on the part of the beach you were on. The resort staff worked pretty hard to keep things cleaned up – they were constantly raking and removing it. We still managed to get plenty of swimming and sunbathing in, but yeah, there were definitely some seaweed-heavy stretches. Don't let it completely ruin your honeymoon plans, but maybe temper your expectations a bit. Consider bringing some water shoes for walking on the sand.
That's really helpful, thanks! Good to know it wasn't a total seaweed apocalypse. Water shoes are a great tip, hadn't thought of that. We're less bothered about swimming every minute of the day and more about relaxing and enjoying the resort itself, so hopefully the seaweed won't be a major issue. Appreciate the honest feedback!
Arsgan House Mystery?
So I'm planning a trip to this secluded chalet, Arsgan House, near Cancun. Heard whispers about it being a bit…haunted? Locals call it "Casa Encantada," which, you know, translates to "Enchanted Hou… more
Nah, it's probably just old house stuff. Flickering lights? Old wiring. Whispers? Wind in the palm trees, maybe some critters. Cancun's humidity can do weird things to electronics, too. That said, the "Enchanted House" name… that's marketing gold. They're probably playing up the mystery angle. I'd bet my pesos there's nothing truly paranormal going on, but a slightly creaky floorboard or a spooky shadow in the right light can get your imagination going, especially after a few margaritas. Go for it, take lots of pics. Let us know if you hear anything more than coatis rustling in the bushes.
Haha, yeah, you're probably right about the wiring and the humidity. Cancun is pretty intense. I did think the "Enchanted House" thing was a bit much, but the pictures online looked… interesting. Definitely leaning towards "slightly creaky floorboard" rather than "poltergeist" at this point. Margaritas are definitely involved in my plan. I'll update with pics and any truly unsettling noises (beyond the coatis, of course). Maybe I'll even get a decent ghost story out of it. Fingers crossed for something mildly spooky, not full-blown horror movie stuff!
