Honeymoon Destination: Off to Mexico
Despite the promise of Spring, snow flurries and gusting winds keep reminding me that it's still Winter here in New York. What better to warm us up than the thought of jetting off to Mexico for a little honeymoon romance?!
When I first saw pictures of the Royal Hideaway Playacar (I mean it's called Royal Hideaway, so you know it's pretty fab) it took every ounce of self control to not catch the next flight outta here. The gorgeous beaches of Riviera Maya, sand between my toes, and a beachside margarita sound like just the perfect cure for my Winter blues. So if you're newly engaged and trying to decide on the perfect honeymoon spot, this all-inclusive luxury resort should do the trick!
I can't get over these beach cabanas and poolside views. Plus eight restaurants, three bars and a full service spa? Seriously, who wants to come with me to Mexico?! The Royal Hideaway Playacar is calling my name!
Need helping packing for your honeymoon? Never fear, we've put together a simple packing list for a beach honeymoon! Sexy bikinis, the perfect beach hat, some killer shades, and a few sun dresses are perfect for a Mexican getaway. Thrown in a statement necklace and a couple of tanks and jet off with your man!
