How close is the nearest metro station? Would you walk (2 women) at night or take cab/uber?
@fyreandeyez Жыл бұрын
The subway stations should be just a few minutes walk away. As far as safety, the street that the hotel is on is very dark and didn't really have anyone else walking around and felt creepy. The surrounding streets had a few more people. I'd say it wouldn't hurt to uber back once it gets dark just to be extra safe!

@fyreandeyez Жыл бұрын
There were occasional shows and events but they weren't every night like you would find at some other resorts. They are pretty good abt having a schedule for the week up at the desk, but there is a chance you would need to take 10 min taxi ride to the "downtown" area to have that available every night.

So going into downtown, you rented a car? Can you suggest where?
@fyreandeyez2 жыл бұрын
You can either rent a car for the day at the cruise ship port or our hotel had car rentals. Both options would need to be reserved in advance most likely. If you just want to take a taxi from your hotel downtown that's very easy also. If all you're doing is going downtown a taxi would probably be enough.

Did you leave the resort and if so do they have taxi or rental (car or bike) near by?
@fyreandeyez2 жыл бұрын
We definitely left the resort and highly advise doing so as well... We think the freedom the island offers to do that and go around to different beach bars and stuff is a big pro to visiting Cozumel! We talked abt jeep rentals in part 2 of this video, kzbin.info/www/bejne/l57KmHR4i9N8nbc but in short, getting a rental is pretty easy, you can do it at resort or go into town and get one. Taxi's are also easily accessible, just tell the guys at the front lobby and they will call you one. There is also a depot at the main cruise port which is halfway between where the resort is and downtown.

We would tip the bartender and maybe if someone helped us with bags or something, but there weren't many opportunities to tip based on the way everything is setup. Just be sure to bring small bills, they are always helpful when trying to tip.

I have never visited Hell’s Kitchen in the almost dozen times I’ve gone to NYC. I think there are sooooo many restaurants in NY that are “just ok” that will be open for YEARS bc people will need SOMETHING that doesn’t have to be amazing if they’re in the neighborhood or in a rush. I haven’t had an AMAZING meal in NY but maybe twice. Fyre saying “oooh!” When y’all were eating the empanada was 😂

Would you recommend going here in March for a 4 day trip? I have heard nothing but great reviews of secrets as a brand, but obviously each location is a little different. Also, any drink recommendations? My wife is a fruity drink gal.
@fyreandeyez2 жыл бұрын
I would say that March is a great time to go in terms of temps. Only thing that we would advise is that if you are flying into Cancun, to try and arrive earlier in the day and leave later in the day because you will have to catch the ferry to get to the island and that can eat up some of your time if you are not careful. The other option would be to fly straight to Cozumel but that's typically a little more expensive... In terms of drinks, a Melon Ball or a Mango Tango are two good options. You can also never go wrong with a Piña Colada or Daquiri!!! Hope you have a great trip and if you have any more questions just ask!
