Maya Tulum Vacation


My husband and I traveled to Tulum, Mexico, over the holidays, to spend our vacation at the Maya Tulum Resort. This resort offers yoga, chi gong, pranayama, and meditation classes daily. Since we had spent our holidays 2 years ago at the Pura Vida Resort in Costa Rica and loved it, we wanted to try one of their other locations. When we arrived, we were astounded at the beauty of the resort, right in front of the ocean. Most of the rooms were comprised of small cabanas with lots of windows, to hear the ocean and feel the breeze. The restaurant offers 3 vegetarian meals per day. The food was good, not excellent. We actually preferred the daily buffet meals in Costa Rica. One of the biggest reasons we preferred the buffet is because we could serve ourselves in our own time. The waiters at the Maya Tulum Resort were very slow and not attentive. It took us a few days to adjust to their pace, as we felt they did not want to help us. After talking to the staff, the service improved. Thank goodness! It is all about communication, right?

Overall, we had a wonderful time, getting sun on the beach, eating a lot, practicing yoga, and taking part in some wonderful treatments. See my next blog for details on the amazing treatments we did at the Maya Tulum Resort. I highly recommend them. Our purpose for taking these types of trips are to end the year, cleansing and letting go of the past, and starting the New Year, with positive intentions to take care of ourselves, physically, mentally, emotionally, and spiritually. It is a wonderful experience.
