We Traveled to an All-Inclusive Resort in Mexico! | RIU Tequila | Cancun | Playa del Carmen

What's up Spreezies! We traveled to Cancun (Playa del Carmen) to celebrate our 5 year anniversary in June. We spent 4 nights at the wonderful RIU Tequila which is a part of RIU properties and is and is an All-Inclusive Resort. Because we stayed on a RIU property, we also had access to the other RIU resorts that were near by. This is the 1st all-inclusive series we've posted on our channel and I will tell you we had an absolute blast! In this series you can expect tons of laughs, lots of adventure, and fun excursions.

Hi. I was just in Playa Del Carmen Feb 8-12. Super Bowl Weekend.. Stayed at RIU Riviera Maya. Love All Inclusive's and Especially RIU . Free transportation, liquor dispensers in room. Happy Belated Anniversary n that's my oldest daughter bday turning 43. Mrs Dee don't gave up on Resorts. U have more things to do. N get one of Thoses Adult Only too.

[@philanddeetravels]

Oh wow! Superbowl had to be a lot of fun! Yes we love RIU's, but in a later vacation series, we found out that all RIU's aren't created equally. Lol but love having drinks available whenever you need it. Thank you for the anniversary wishes. And happy early birthday to your daughter. 3 more months to go. Definitely have to get to an adults only and surprisingly there weren't many kids here at this resort during our stay.

[@PrettyNaturalWorld]

I am loving this and the resort is gorgeous. I love resorts!

[@philanddeetravels]

Thank you so much. We do too. This trip made us reconsider the direction of our channel because we had such a fantastic time.

[@LKFamilyTravel]

Loving the comparisons between cruising and an all inclusive land trip!

[@philanddeetravels]

Thank you. I guess they were comparisons. While we were filming we were just taking friendly jabs at each other 🤣🤣🤣

[@LKFamilyTravel]

@philanddeetravels Lol. My original comment was going to say "friendly banter". No matter what we call it at the end of the day, the jabs are actually insightful.

[@philanddeetravels]

[@jeffreysangel]

Happy Anniversary 🎉🎁 I'm glad y'all made it safely. Come on Dee and Roll on the River💃💃💃 I can't wait to see more

[@philanddeetravels]

Thanks. And yea it took us all day to get there smh. Them shots definitely loosened her shoulders up to get down that river. 🤣

[@SeeItWithC]

Ah ok, yeah you entered Mexico during your connection so you have to get processed through customs and security. Same if you ever connect in another country. You'll clear immigration the first segment that you enter that country before heading to your connecting flight. Build in extra time especially flying through Europe and beyond.

[@philanddeetravels]

Ahhhh ok. So next time we'll be prepared. Thanks for the tip.

[@allenfamilyadventures859]

The zoom in on Dee face when you had all them longs on the years. 😂 Yall outside with no PJ! #outside

Omg. I was just there for 3 days. On the last day, we found out that the beach was across the street. Lol lol.

[@philanddeetravels]

Yes! We took advantage of the free ride over there. It was super hot that day. How'd you enjoy the resort?

Oh my gosh! We have the same anniversary day June 9th! Enjoyed the travel day vlog. The food looked really good and karaoke looked like a great time! 😊 Happy Anniversary!🎉

[@philanddeetravels]

Say what??? Ok anniversary cousins! Lol the food was surprisingly good. And a little better than cruise ship buffets. Karaoke was great. The shots probably made it better than what it really was though. 🤣 3 more months away from another anniversary!

[@MHFamilyAdventures]

Loved this vlog! Yeah all that movement in airports in Mexico is ridiculous! Yall definitely had a long travel day. The resort looks nice. Think this is making us want to go to an all inclusive- but you are right Phil- no need to take the stairs on a cruise 🤣 looking forward to the next part!

[@philanddeetravels]

It was entirely too long. But yes we recommend it. It's so laid back, not a lot of hustle and bustle. And you can move at your own pace.

[@TrippingTexans]

First, I love how you set up that look from Dee!!! LOL. I hate connecting flights. The room for error is just too much sometimes.

[@philanddeetravels]

🤣🤣🤣🤣 look like she was ready to hurt me lol yea next time we fly to Mexico we will look for a direct flight or at least not stop in Mexico city

[@KeepingUpWithTheGriffins]

Hey fam, here for the anniversary shenanigan's!!! 🥳 Now that's how you celebrate with a trip to Cancun!!!! The first day of travelling can be tiring but yall still managed to fit in some fun. Can't wait to see what else yall got into. We'll catch you on the next one!

[@philanddeetravels]

Preciate it fam! And with the day we had, we needed a little fun to turn things around.

Could You estimate the walking distance from your Room to the Restaurants area and Entertainment ( Karaoke) area.

We ended up further in the back of the resort, but it may have been around 3-4 minutes after walking down the stairs.
