The Moon is a very nice resort. It's huge with the Moon and Sunrise right next to each other. You get the use of all the Palace resorts which is nice. That way you can see most of Cancun. The pool at the Moon is one of the nicest there is. Here's the only draw backs that I have heard. First people have gotten bumped from the Moon to one of the other Palace resort and the other thing is the seaweed that collects on the beach, even though they clean it up every day. Hope this helps <BR>If you have more questions email me. I have a friend leaving this weekend to the Moon so I'll have some more info soon. <BR> <BR>Tommy <BR>www.geocities.com/travel_with_tommy

I will be staying in Cancun and would like to go to Isle Contoy. The tour books suggest that it is better to leave from Isle Mujueres. Do you know of any tour boats that make this journey? I know that there is a ferry that will take me to Isle Mujueres.

I was wondering if you knew anything about Iberostar in Playa Del Carmen. My fiancé and I are going for our honeymoon in January and are curious as to what others think about this place. We have heard nothing but good except for one response. Thanks!

Hey Alex, to get to my website just highlight the address and copy it then paste it in your web browser or just simply type the address in <BR> <BR>www.geocities.com/travel_with_tommy <BR> <BR>About moving there. I would even hesitate. There is plenty to do. Cancun is growing larger and larger by the day. There is always something to do in the Hotel Zone, plus Playa and Isla Mujeres are just a bit away. <BR> <BR>Hope this helps <BR> <BR>Tommy

Hi Tommy, can you tell me if June or July is a better time to visit Cancun. I'm going as a family vacation and definitely need to go during school vacation, but unfortunately due to health situations, over 80 degrees can be a problem for me. I;m definitely going to check out your website after this, but first, I really wanted to stay at the Cancun Palace, but don't want to be bumped, how do I avoid that?, and are there anyway of getting any special deals through them, I've tried, but it seems almost impossible. Thanks, Roni

Hey Roni, <BR>Well the only thing is that the weather is usually always in the 80's or warmer. <BR>I'll be there in Dec. and the highs still run in the mid 80's. As for June or July, June will be a little cooler than July by about 4 or 5 degrees. As for the Cancun Palace, you shouldn't have too much of a problem with hotel about getting bumped. The Moon and Moon Sunrise have that problem. Just make sure when you book your hotel that the travel agent makes sure and tell the resort that you will only stay there. <BR>Cancun Palace is my favorite of all Palace Resorts. <BR> <BR>Hope this helps <BR> <BR>Tommy <BR>

Hey Janet, <BR> <BR>The Robinson Club is a wonderful resort. The beach is very beautiful with lots of area to sun. It is set like an Eco-Park with its lush and dense surroundings. All rooms come with a private balcony with hammock, 2 double beds. The Robinson Club has a boutique, mini-market, silver shop, crafts, car rental and a nurse and doctor on call. Theme nights range from Mexican fiestas to Greek feasts and will enhance your dining experience. They also offer snorkeling, scuba, windsurfing and many more water activities. The food is pretty good especially at the Mayan restuarant. <BR> <BR>Hope this helps <BR> <BR>Tommy

Tommy what is the off season for Cancun? What do you think of just spending a long weekend there (we're from DC) or is that just rushing it a bit. And what 4-5 star hotel is your fav. Sorry to ask such moronic questions. Thank you for your help.

Hey there, <BR> <BR>Off season runs from about Sept. to right before Christmas. It's a great time to visit especially in Nov. and early Dec. Long weekends are a great getaway especially in Cancun(anytime there is great). My favorite hotel is the Flamingo. The service, food and beach are very, very wonderful. Also you might checkout the Crown Paradise, another very nice resort. <BR> <BR>Hope this helps <BR> <BR>Tommy

Hi Tommy, would like to surprise husband and three young kids with a tropical vacation when school is out in June. Don't know anything about Cancun, my only experience in Mexico has been a 5-day stay at Acapulco Princess many years ago and my husband was sick for 2 months after we returned. He'd probably kill me if I booked another Mexican vacation, but I hear Cancun is not the same problem (water). What can you tell me, and what is the best place to take kids--want to be with other families and lots to do, don't want to be bored!! Please let me know. <BR> <BR>

Hey Kathy, <BR>Cancun has a purified water system, so the water is safe to drink, but the hotels have plenty of bottled water so that's what I go with. Also a good thing to do is taking some Pepto or Pepcid along for upset stomach(just incase). As for places to stay the best family reort would be the Crown Paradise. Beautiful resort and has a wonderful kids waterpark and lots of fun activities. Another one would be the Yalmakan. <BR> <BR>Hope this helps <BR> <BR>Tommy

Hi Tommy! <BR> <BR> Going to CLUB MED CANCUN in December for the first time with my boyfriend. <BR> It's our FIRST trip together (uh oh!!), and I don't want anything to go wrong. <BR> So, I'm reaching out you as an expert on Cancun, and to share with me (or warn me) whatever information, experiences, and/or advice you may have on Club Med Cancun. Also, please enlighten me with your expertise on Cancun: whatever I should do, should bring, need to get while I'm there, don't get while I'm there, do while I'm there, don't do while I'm there, etc., etc. <BR> <BR> Thank you Tommy in advance!
