Cruise vs. All-Inclusive. The Ultimate Showdown.

July 31, 2020 By Caroline Peterson

Up until 7 years ago, I had not done the cruise thing nor stepped foot in a resort. I know, I know. I lead such a deprived life. Let me tell you, neither of these events were life changing, so if you haven’t done either–it’s cool, you can still sit with us at the lunch […]

My First All-Inclusive Resort: The Hyatt Zilara Cancun Review

April 22, 2016 By Caroline Peterson

Hyatt Zilara Cancun

It’s official–I like going to all-inclusive resorts more than taking a cruise, especially after staying at the Hyatt Zilara Cancun. I know, how flippant of me to rank such fun options.
