Dreams Vista Cancun Golf & Spa Resort: Achy Breaky Heart?

fmd_good Dreams Vista Cancún Golf & Spa Resort

So, I'm heading to Dreams Vista Cancun Golf & Spa Resort next month. My wife booked it – surprise anniversary trip! She’s obsessed with these all-inclusive resorts. I'm more of a "find a local taco… more

Relax, dude. It's Cancun. You're allowed to be a sun-drunk zombie for a day or two. Embrace the all-inclusive, then bolt. Seriously though, one day is plenty to get the lay of the resort land. After that, easily escape the resort prison. Plenty of taxis are right outside. Hop in one and head to the Hotel Zone – tons of restaurants and bars beyond the resort walls, but still relatively safe and touristy. Try a local place for lunch – get away from the resort food! For a genuine Cancun experience (beyond the resort scene) get a taxi to downtown Cancun. It's a bit more chaotic but offers a real slice of Mexican life. It’s not super far, but probably best to not wander too far off the beaten path there if you're not familiar. You can still get a feel for the city without getting into too much trouble. Just keep your wits about you and don't flash expensive jewelry. Enjoy the trip!

Secundaria Memories?

I'm heading to @Cancun soon and found out my Tia went to Secundaria Federal Juan de la Barrera. She always talks about the amazing school plays they put on. Apparently, they were legendary. Anyone kn… more

That's a cool story about your Tia! Secundaria Federal Juan de la Barrera... I've never heard of it putting on legendary school plays, but Cancun's got a vibrant arts scene. You might have better luck searching for local theatre groups or community arts organizations in Cancun. Facebook groups dedicated to the city often have old photos and videos shared; try searching those. Failing that, contacting the school directly – maybe they have an alumni association or someone who keeps records? Good luck with your search!

Wow, thanks! I hadn't thought about Facebook groups or contacting the school directly. That's a great suggestion. I figured it was a long shot remembering those plays, they were... well, a very long time ago. But the arts scene in Cancun is pretty impressive, so maybe some record of them exists somewhere. I'll definitely check out those local theatre groups too. You've given me some really helpful leads!
