re: Isla Mujeres getaway

We've done second floor and top floor. I think we're just going to do poolside this time.

There's a good amount of people there but it's a small island and most people have never heard of it. If you want no crowd then go to Holbox.

That said, I've never had a problem getting a table or a place at the bar anywhere. Up until November Hotel Secreto only had 12 rooms.

Dopi's lobster burrito is amazing. Reubens is awesome. Everywhere we ate and went was great. I recommend a vacation there for sure.

If you are on Facebook, there is a page called Islaholics that you can follow. It has great information and a lot of restaurants list their daily specials (like Chilitos by Rueben), as well as discounts and other info.
Sometimes Vacation rental owners will put up great last minute deals when they get a cancellation.

Does the island get crazy during spring break? Thinking of a long weekend around the 3rd or 4th week of March, too old to put up with spring breakers now a days.

Some of the spring breakers daytrip over. That’s the extent of it. There’s tons of organized craziness for them in Cancun and they tend to stay over there.

Isla is not just older, but also very European. French and Italians make up probably 30%. The town is also popular for backpackers and folks from Wisconsin.

Enjoy! Their tuna tostadas are legit....had some on Friday. Isla is legit and my home away from home.

<— at g mail and I can text you some stuff.

FYI...VA Buckeye is also there right now.

Had lunch at Fredy’s today. Dinner at Bastos tonight. We’ll definitely eat at La Lotima again. It was amazing. Rainy day so we’re chilling and drinking.

Always the same for us....I’m in “return trip planning mode” a day or two before we are leaving.



You guys hit up some delicious eats. Glad you got to experience that awesome little island.
