Always wanted to go to Mexico, but I feel this is a drunk sausagefest with jersey shore bros loooking to fight.

I want to see ruins, swim, beach, partay, but are there better places ?

If Caribbean islands are Target, Mexico is Kmart.

Judging by the seriousness of your post it’s probably too nice for you.

Travel board and money board. We help people. Lose the stupid schtick and we’ll be happy to help.

Go to Merida/Progresso/Sisal. Unless you are still hunting spring break poon.

Find a place in playa del carmen closure to tulum, isla Mujeres or Holbox off the main areas. You will have a great time that is very cost friendly.

There is (almost) always better and worth it is totally dependent on your budget and impossible for anyone else to answer.

That being said, there is plenty of fun, scenery, cuisine, activities and relaxation to be had there but the first thing I would do is stop worrying about other people.

I’ve been twice and I’ll never return. The beaches are nothing compared to the Caribbean.

We've done a few over a couple trips....Golf, day trip to Tulum, Xplor Park in Playa, Underground River tubing in Playa, Day trip to Isla (we've never wanted more than a day there) and we've done a snorkel, water day tour where we caught our own lobster and grilled them right on the boat

I'd say Roatan 100% of the time over Belize. Just no ruins.

What was your itenirary? Fly into Cancun and stay where ?
Did you book reservation and tours in advance? How did you use money ?

I'm very anxious and haven't traveled down south before . I have limited time off so I want to use this well
