Every year, I try to take a vacation where I simply unplug,
relax and recharge. So this Summer, two
of my girlfriends and I headed south of the border to Cabo! We spent five beautiful days in the sun (and
heat!), laughing a lot and enjoying more drinks than we can count. In fact, I have sworn off all frozen fruity drinks
until Vacation 2014!
We stayed at the Secrets Marquis Resort, which I definitely
recommend to anyone. The all-inclusive resort
was picture perfect, super clean, loaded with amenities like restaurants (Italian, Asian, French, American), a great spa, daily entertainment (we played ping
pong, did water aerobics, came in first place at Casino night and attended
nightly shows). The staff were some of
the nicest, most service-oriented people I’ve ever encountered. Oh, and did I mention the resort was adults
only? Woo-Hoo!!! So I will add ‘quiet in a good way’ to my
what’s-great-about-Secrets list. Secrets
Marquis was first class all the way and has earned the Secrets brand first
consideration in my future travel plans.
While we loved the pool and those frozen fruity drinks, we did
manage to leave the resort to go to the marina/market area one afternoon. This
is where we ate real Mexican tacos (not Tex-Mex) and flexed our negotiating skills while loading
up on souvenirs. The sellers at the
market were friendly yet very assertive and some had very clever tactics to get
your attention. One guy even told us that
since he wouldn’t see more of us that day then he’ll see us next lifetime!
LOL! It was that kind of lighthearted
mood that filled our five days, from the time we left Dallas to the time we
returned...and I loved it!
Cabo has always been on my travel list and while this trip
wasn’t the hard partying Cabo trip I always dreamed of, it was everything my
friends and I hoped it would be and exactly what I needed. Here are a few of my
fave Cabo pics! Enjoy!
