We absolutely LOVED the little island of Isla Mujeres! Even during sargassum season, the main beaches were stunning, with shockingly blue water that looked almost unreal.
We spent three nights here and fell in love with the laid-back vibes, delicious restaurants, and gorgeous turquoise water. Honestly, I’m almost tempted to say that during sargassum season, Isla Mujeres is a far superior beach destination to Cancun!
The one thing Cancun does better? All-inclusive resorts! 🏨🍹 If your idea of a perfect vacation is lounging by the pool with a cocktail in hand, Cancun might still be your best bet.
But we prefer exploring, discovering charming little places, and enjoying the natural beauty of the water. Give us beautiful beaches and a laid-back island vibe any day! 💙
For us, Isla Mujeres wins this round! 🏆
What about you? Would you choose the all-inclusive resorts of Cancun or the beautiful beaches of Isla Mujeres? Or split your time between the two?
