I usually travel with my family. Freeport was our first international trip. The frist time we went was a good time, our accomodations were a little cramped but we still had fun hanging with a local family. The pool was tiny, but we didn’t know it then so it was great for us. We over packed and while that slowed us up at the airport we enjoyed Freeport so much that we went back the next summer and even bought a timeshare there! The next summer we packed lighter (A LOT lighter!) and spent our first time at the MUCH NICER timeshare resort (this would be when we realized how small the previous pool was). We had a ball…. We haven’t been back in a while (using our timeshare weeks to explore more of the world) but we certainly have good memories of Freeport.

I went to Cancun summer 2005. I wasn’t looking forward to going because I was going with my parents and siblings. I am soooo glad I went for it was the best vacation I have ever been on. We stayed at a small hotel not in the hotel zone, but only 8 mintues away via free bus shuttle. My sister and I spent one evening at Senor Frogs but we really enjoyed hanging at our resort dancing at the bar in the lobby. I suggest that if you can go all-inclusive, then do it!!! We had a ball eating what we wanted, when we wanted to. We hung by the pool for hours and then chilled in our rooms for hours more, talk about REALXED and RESTED!!!

We got massages at our sister resort and shopped the markets for gifts for family and friends back home. We truly had a wonderfully enjoyable experience.

I also recommend you take a small trip northwest to Xacret. It is about an hour away but you can snorkel through underground caves!! They have a butterfly hatchery, sea turtle hatchery, and they even raise sting rays for re-release. They put on a great night show showcasing the history of Mexico.

I love Cancun and I will be going back next year with my freinds to clebrate turning 30!!!
