Sooo, turns out that Azul Fives wasn't open and won't be until November of this year!! Severe construction issues...luckily we discovered that 2.5 months in advance and we were able to book at a new resort thanks to our travel agent, Colleen. I highly recommend that you use a travel agent when you are going to a new destination for the first time, especially out of the country. She basically saved our vacation.
We stayed at Secrets Capri just north of Playa Del Carmen, which was a seriously decadent and wonderful all-inclusive resort. The size was just right for us (290 rooms) and there were plenty of restaurants and bars to keep our taste buds singing and waistlines expanding for the short five days we were in Mexico.
By the time we left, we had taken over 600 photos. My sister is an "amateur" photographer and takes great photos. She always has a camera with her wherever we go to capture the moment and create the memories we can look upon later.
See our trip here.
