Looking for an exciting and memorable vacation instead of laying beside the pool for a week? We spent 8 days, 7 nights at the Occidental at Xcaret all-inclusive hotel in Mexico. We got the unlimited Xcaret pass and was able to explore every corner of the enourmous Xcaret park during our 8-days trip.
We've been to many other parks in Mexico, but Xcaret is my personal favourite, and most suitable for younger kids.
Our kids loved snorkelling with hundreds (if not thousands) of tropical fish, children's world, the beach, animal encounters, paradise river boat ride
The adults enjoyed the iconic River swim, natural pools, looking at weird stuff at the aquarium, learning about Mayan culture and walking around the village. The 7pm show is absolutely spectacular.
