Dreams Vista Cancun Golf & Spa Resort: Mosquito Mayhem?

fmd_good Dreams Vista Cancún Golf & Spa Resort

So, I'm heading to Dreams Vista Cancun Golf & Spa Resort next month. Heard amazing things, beautiful beaches, all-inclusive... But my one worry is mosquitos. I've seen some pics, and they look... i… more

Yeah, Cancun can be a mosquito haven, especially near the lusher areas. Dreams Vista is pretty nice, but it's still close enough to the jungle that you'll probably encounter some. Industrial-strength stuff is probably overkill, but a good DEET-based repellent is a must. I wouldn't bother with the full-body net though – sounds a bit much. Focus on evenings and dawn, those are peak biting times. Long sleeves and pants for dinner might not be a bad idea either. Enjoy the resort though! It's gorgeous.

Thanks for the heads-up! Good to know about the mosquitos – I figured it would be a thing, but wasn't sure how bad. DEET it is then. Long sleeves for dinner sounds like a plan, rather be safe than sorry. Appreciate the advice!

Arsgan House Mystery?

fmd_good Arsgan House

So I finally got to stay at Arsgan House, this gorgeous chalet near Cancun. The view was insane, seriously breathtaking. Spent most of my time on the balcony just staring out at the Caribbean. But,… more

No way! That's crazy. I've been to tons of places in Mexico, but never heard of Arsgan House. A locked box... sounds like the start of a good story. Maybe it's just old trinkets, maybe it's pirate treasure... or maybe it's cursed. Seriously though, I'd be tempted to try and jimmy it open... just a tiny bit, you know? To satisfy my curiosity. But then again, maybe leaving it alone is best. Let us know if you ever find out what's inside!

Right?! It's totally messing with my head. I’ve looked everywhere online, nothing. Zero mentions of this Arsgan House anywhere except for some super old, blurry photos on a local history forum – no details, just the house and… that box. The temptation to pick the lock is HUGE. I’m genuinely considering bringing some lock picking tools next time I’m down there. Maybe I’ll just peek inside though... I’m not sure I'm ready for whatever's inside to jump out at me. Pirate treasure does sound pretty sweet, though. Cursed... maybe not so much.
