Our Trip to MEXICO 🇲🇽 with kids + review of Royalton Splash Riviera Cancun 🏝️

[@emgeddes]

Hi Emily, I just want to say that I've followed you for years now, and your vlogs always bring me such joy and make me emotional when it's a family vlog like this. Since becoming a single parent and only seeing my 2 children at certain times it's made me appreciate my time with them even more and watching your vlogs has inspired me to capture everything so that I can treasure those moments at a later date. I used to be scared to get the camera out in fear of being judged, but now I'll value those 10 seconds clips that I capture even more. Thank you for allowing us into your life and inspiring mothers like me.

[@nickyharriott1978]

Totally feel for you I’ve been there as a single mum. And now they are older and starting their own lives with their friends I’m really pleased I took so many pictures and videos to look back on ❤

[@deenass88]

Hi Emily, I always look forward to your holiday vlogs. One question please… did you worry about safety and also feeling sick? Safety travelling to and from the resort and feeling sick due to the food/water? Did you have ice in your drinks? Xx

[@mrsemilynorris]

We were quite careful - I felt very safe in the hotel we had ice in drinks etc but were careful if we went out x @@deenass88

[@mrsemilynorris]

Oh yes I totally understand that! Take as many pics as you can xx

[@sandradanielson8424]

Happy New Year! It’s the small things you do to love on your family - like playing cards before dinner to keep everyone happy, spending time with Frasier working out, etc - the way you live in them is precious! Taking note. I was blessed with one boy who is 5 now as we struggled with infertility but making memories is huge for me and loving on him in the best possible way is also.

[@mrsemilynorris]

Thank you so much! That means so much to me. Congratulations on your lovely boy xxx

[@lolacrompton9001]

Oh my that looks beautiful 😍 I am so glad you made this video or my parents would not have booked it .( I also think we will be the only English to 😝 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿

[@sallymunley2824]

Lovely holiday with so many memories. The beach was beautiful and the catamaran was thrilling! What an incredible experience. I bet your boys were so excited to share it with their friends. Happy holidays and good you are all home safely with Kiki. Have a good rest of your week. Friday tomorrow and a weekend to enjoy. X

[@mrsemilynorris]

Thanks Sally, we had the best time 🥰 Thanks for watching xx

[@melissasamson934]

I’ve watched almost every review of this resort and I have to say this was one of my favourites! I am travelling with my son 13 years old high functioning autistic with a peanut allergy. Very helpful video, bonus points for the amazing music. Thank you

[@sandrabridgers]

Thank you and your family for taking us along with yall to Mexico 🇲🇽 what a beautiful 😍 country ❤️

[@heatherbloomfield]

Yay on the watch list! Your holiday vlogs are my favourites on your channel 👏

[@shardae5219]

So glad you and the family had a great time. I've missed your holiday vlogs ❤ I can't believe how grown up the boys are... no more packing 1 nappy for every hour of travel! 😂 We love Mexico and finally get to bring our girls this October HT. Those photos of baby yoda were hilarious 😂

[@mrsemilynorris]

OMG I know! They're so big we can share shoes on holiday now 😢 xxx

[@clairemcgrouther5166]

Thanks for sharing. It’s always great to see options for winter sun especially as I’m currently stuck in dark wet Scotland. What was your weather temperature like and or the temperature of the pools and sea.

[@cljmustard]

Lovely video Emily Mexico looks lovely with plenty to do for the family and lots of restaurants xx

[@DavidFloresM55]

Very happy that you visited my country, I hope you had an incredible time in Mexico and that you can visit us again, greetings from Mexico City

[@mrsemilynorris]

We had the best time xxx

[@erinsmith3000]

Ahhh Emily, I got engaged 2 years ago at the Isla Mujeres and I’m getting married in August this year. This vlog brought back so many lovely memories for me! All the best for 2024 x

[@mrsemilynorris]

Aw wow congratulations xxx

[@saracheung96]

Looks like a beautiful holiday! And the yoda thing was so funny 😂

[@jenn1eharr1s10]

Hi Emily, what an amazing vlog. Mexico is my favourite destination, what a fantastic hotel. Thank you for sharing your holiday highlights xxx

[@mrsemilynorris]

Thank you so much for watching xxx

[@Vikki-q1v]

Hi Emily, we are going to this hotel soon and just wondered if you need to bring your own towels for the beach or does the hotel provide them? Thanks in advance 😊 x

[@stephani7557]

What a super fun way to spend the New Year! Thank you for sharing you special Christmas memories with all of us. It looked like so much fun.

[@Kavita_826]

So glad you experienced Mexico ❤❤ We've been 3 times, last trip was Xmas 2022, we stayed at Planet Hollywood Cancun. The straw situation is to protect the sealife. We purchased stainless steel cups for our cold drinks because one can't drink a Pina Colada without a straw. Plus the drinks stay really cold in the Mexican heat ☀️🌅🌞

[@mrsemilynorris]

We loved it 🇲🇽 Thanks for watching xx

[@gadjet6794]

Hi Emily, I have booked this resort for my Wife’s 40th birthday which happens to be New Year’s Eve so I was doing my research and came across your review, we fly out 28th Dec till 7th Jan 2025 so similar times to you last year. I have read a mix of reviews(mostly positive)regarding the resort but after seeing yours it’s put my mind at ease. Great video👍

[@rebeccagrace4837]

We have just got back from Mexico with our three boys! (12, 9, 4). We had such an amazing time and stayed in Cancun. If you go again, it’s worth taking the long coach trip to see Chichén Itza. It’s mind blowing. Our boys also loved swimming in the cenotes which are all stunning! Highly recommend!! I’m glad you had a lovely holiday and enjoyed the sunshine 🌞. My boys are currently in school recovering from jet lag 😅 x

[@mrsemilynorris]

Ooh thank you for the tip! xx

[@chloeb1419]

Happy New Year to you and the family Emily! All the best for 2024. Looking forward to more of your content. This trip looked like it was very special for you guys. Looked like a lovely resort which had plenty to keep the kids stimulated and a good time was had by all 💜🏖️

[@mrsemilynorris]

Aw thank you so much for watching xxx

[@alisondoughty2194]

Happy New Year 2024. Your holiday looked super.Everything needed for three energetic boys.🎉😀

[@mrsemilynorris]

Ha ha ha oh yes! We had a great time xx

[@amycooper6142]

Absolutely love Mexico! My best friend got married there a few years ago. It was so lovely!!!! We also did the meal in the cave! Beautiful place!

[@mrsemilynorris]

Ah amazing!! Thanks for watching Amy xx

[@eunicehermosillo7829]

I love to see the holiday videos with your family ❤. Can you do a video on how to plan a holiday with a family. Happy new year 🎉!

[@mrsemilynorris]

Aw thank you so much - we loved it xxx

[@duaneplakmeyer8449]

Weird question, I have seen other video reviews that show a family of 5 crocodiles living next to the resort in the mangroves. They are closely monitored by the staff as to when they get in water at beach. At which time the guests are cleared out of the water. Just curious if you encountered them?

[@denise6929]

Great vlog! Good insight for those travelling from the UK to Royalton Splash.

[@sydlant]

Loved the review at the end!!

[@destinialfaro4908]

Are there swim up bars at the pools?

[@deenass88]

Hi Emily, I always look forward to your holiday vlogs. One question please… did you worry about safety and also feeling sick? Safety travelling to and from the resort and feeling sick due to the food/water? Did you have ice in your drinks? Xx

[@danakennedy7439]

Thinking about traveling with 5 is there no way to share the standard room (2 queen beds and a pull out) ? As much as I adore your set up I priced the 2 bedroom (what I think they call a Presidential room) and it's a bit over budget. Every time I put 5 guests in the booking form I'm pushed to that 2 room set up.

[@ericad3850]

Happy New Year! I went to Cancun when I was 8 years old. It was so fun!

[@NIcolaFox-lo8eu]

Hi Rmily, could I ask what room you stayed in and were you happy. We are looking at room 12419 But nervous about pre booking

[@RyanLolaNala]

Hi Emily hope your all well, I hope you had a brilliant time, this was a fantastic video, I loved it keep the amazing work coming ❤xxx

[@mrsemilynorris]

Thanks Ryan, Thanks for watching as always xx

[@BadWolfBay33]

Great video! Love that you don’t really know about Pickleball,..it’s such a hot thing here in the US! 😂 it seems like the jet lag was tough…might I suggest Aruba for your next tropical getaway. It’s one hour ahead of us here in the east coast so only 4 hours behind London time. We just went as a family of five from Xmas to new years and it was awesome. Just an idea! 😇

[@Kira8412]

Hi there! Thank you so much for this video!! Would you mind sharing the link for the catamaran and island tour excursion?❤

[@donnalogan]

You mentioned you don’t drink alcohol. Same here. We’ve been putting off an all-inclusive for years and years bc we felt we wouldn’t get our money’s worth. What did you think? Was the cost worth the value without alcohol?

[@neilmacquarrie]

Hi. Great info. Thank you. We’re a family of 5 arriving in July and we were anxious about the connecting rooms so thanks for the tour. Also are there x box’s for the kids in the resort. Thanks again. Neil

[@jennyangelle]

I LOVED seeing your amazing trip!! The Yoda prank by the staff was SO good🤣🤣🤣 Thanks so much for sharing your review! You had me at lazy river!! I’m so sad you didn’t get to go have a little spa treatment! Maybe next time!! It’s so cute how Caleb always finds a “ girl” friend!! Was she American? 🥰

[@mrsemilynorris]

Yes from Chicago 🥰

[@jennyangelle]

[@eleanoramelia2591]

Hey Emily, what is the name of the toy, Jackson was playing with? Love the video. Thank you for sharing this experience 😊

[@_Simnesia_]

I think you might mean the Bitzee.

[@paigesheehan3803]

Hi Emily my name is Paige I’m from Australia, and I love to travel. I started traveling 2 years before covid and I started traveling again last year. I wanted to know. Out of all the places and countries you have visited. Which ones would you recommend people to visit.

[@zarahoneyman2048]

Hi Emily, Happy New Year 🎉to you all! Loved 🥰 this video!!! Did your hotel have any kids club that you can leave your children at? My eldest son loves football and tends to go every day too! 💙

[@ep4246]

I want to start by saying that I'll always follow this beautiful family as they are so positive and in good spirits. I've been following for years. But I have to be honest, at times, it is very difficult for me to watch, as I am getting further away from relating to the Norris Family. Between the glamorous vacations and extreme home renovation of a home that is well beyond average. I can not relate anymore. The economy we are in, I don't know how anyone can do all of this. Here in the US, we are struggling to buy groceries. I am happy that they are able to do the things they do. It's a wonderful life for her and her family. I just wish I could relate to Emily like I did before she moved.

[@zeynepnilsensoy762]

Hey Emily, hope you’re all well. I’m happy, good and well thank you good evening love this Our New’s Year’s Eve trip to Mexico with kids video. I’m so glad and happy that you’re all really enjoyed your time in Mexico on New’s Year’s Eve! I like all of your dresses that you wore in Mexico! They’re all so lovely. The songs played in this Mexico New’s Year’s Eve trip with kids was Be Free with me, It really makes me wonder by Loving Caliber and Turn it up songs. I really loved the Be free with me song very much it’s reminds me of the sunshine, family and holiday’s All your lovely dresses and foods in Mexico are gorgeous and delicious as well.

[@j3mmb3th]

So glad you had a great time at a Royalton resort, we stayed at the royal splash in the Dominican Republic and the staff and service were shocking. We didn't want to book another Royalton resort after that but looks like they are not all the same x

Oh no what a shame! xx

Great idea about the baby Yoda. I may have to borrow your idea.

[@AA-uy2br]

Hi Emily, happy 2024 and congratulations on your book! Would you consider doing a series of "Things U wish I knew before xxx"? I've been a long time viewer of your channel and I can see how your channel has evolved with your role as a mum. I thought maybe you could do videos like "Things I wish I knew before my child went to junior/ primary school" or "Beauty tips I wish I knew before I turned 40" ❤

[@svetlacavaleri7071]

Thank you so much for your honest review of the resort Emily! Just out of curiosity, did you happen to notice if they had plant based options (other than pasta lol) on the menus of all those lovely restaurants? Thanks again!:)

[@mrsemilynorris]

Oh yes I did see quite a few vegan options! My friend is vegan and I thought of her xx

[@svetlacavaleri7071]

That’s great to know, thank you so much!❤

[@joylaw3162]

Hi Emily, Matt, and boys. Mexico looks lovely, there's plenty of things to do. Going to the gym with Fraser, must have been a special bonding time for you both. Doing something together that you both enjoy. Makes you realise how fast Fraser is growing up. I love watching your family holidays. Because your family always makes the most of every holiday you have. This makes great viewing. Thank you for everything you do. Wishing you all a very Happy and Healthy New Year ❤❤❤❤❤

Mexico is my dream holiday destination I would love to go but my mum is worried about what is happening there at the moment, it looks absolutely lovely where you are ❤

[@tanial8171]

If you stay in the resort and book trips with their personal is very safe and enjoyable. When you go out to the town by yourself is when people would want to take advantage of you or you may face some unsafe situations. This places live from tourism, so they keep the security very well. Most hotels go to the airport to get you and back.

Thanks for the straw tip

[@TheLonelyBadAsh]

Please don’t laugh, but if the water is not safe to drink, how is it safe to shower/bathe/wash hands in? Or even swim in? It still gets in your eyes and mouth, especially kiddos.
