Maui Vacation Update

I’ve been a little MIA on the blog because I’ve been enjoying my long vacation on Maui.  Currently still in Maui enjoying the sunshine but thought I would check in to give a quick update before I do a full recap!

Top Activities on Maui

MAUI!! This is one of my favorite places to vacation too; I’ve been going since I was a little kid.  I’ve been almost 20 times, so I’ve tried a lot of different charters and activities.  When going, we always try to find a new activity to do.  Here are the top four activities that we’ve done several times, and I always tell people they should do.

Don’t worry I’ll be doing separate posts on beaches, snorkeling, and where to eat as we get closer to our next trip to Maui in May.

All-Inclusive in Loreto Mexico

On our first family vacation in over five years, my parents surprised us with an all-inclusive trip to Loreto, Mexico.  We stayed at Villa del Palmar Loreto.  It was so much fun that my husband and I went back with our parents after we eloped to Bora Bora.

Loreto is a quaint little fishing village about 3 hours north of La Paz on the Baja peninsula.  Once you arrive at the airport, you are greeted by the friendly staff from Villa del Palmar.  A perk of the resort was the affordable airport shuttle service.

Once you arrive at the resort, you are greeted with hibiscus tea, and the lobby looks out onto the luscious gardens and the ocean.  You’ll want to make sure you book for the all-inclusive and grab your bracelets at check-in.  Our first trip with the family we had three couples, so we stayed in one of the 3-bedroom suites.  The suite was insane all the bedrooms had an on-suite bathroom, lanai, and view of the ocean.  When we went back for the second time, we had a one bedroom, and it was fantastic with a full kitchen, laundry, and a soaking tub.  With a lanai and a view of the ocean.
