Listen Later

Do you dream of a tropical getaway filled with sunshine, sandy beaches, turquoise waters, and delicious food? Then you're in luck because we're sharing our favorite three resorts in Mexico where you can use your points to make your dreams a reality.

​​Mexico is often thought of as a popular destination for adults, but it is also a great place for family vacations. Despite what you may have heard, Mexico is a safe and friendly country with plenty of family-friendly activities and attractions. From exploring ancient Mayan ruins to swimming with dolphins, there is something for everyone in Mexico. And hey, if you do want a little more adult time on your trip, don’t worry there is plenty of Tequila to go around! :) 

Recently Alex and Pam stayed at the Hyatt Ziva Cancun the whole family! This all-inclusive resort is a true paradise located on the Yucatan Peninsula and surrounded by beautiful property and turquoise waters. Alex only paid $550 out of pocket for the whole trip! Trust us, you won't regret this stay. 

Next on our list is The Cape in Cabo. If you want to take a “girl's trip” or have a more upscale experience, Jess says this is the place to be! This modern luxury resort is located in the heart of Cabo and offers stunning views of the famous El Arco rock formation. (Even the standard rooms have this epic view!) With its sleek design and top-notch amenities, The Cape is the perfect place to escape from the hustle and bustle of everyday life. And the best part? You can use your points to book a stay here and experience all the luxury for yourself!

And last but not least, our third pick is a resort that is the epitome of relaxation. Hit play to find out what it is! During our conversation, we will also cover our favorite experiences, the best places to eat, the cheapest shuttle options during your stay and more! By the end, you’ll have almost everything you need to experience all the fun this country offers! We truly believe that Mexico is one of the best places for Traveling On Points! With its gorgeous beaches, beautiful pools, and delicious cuisine, you'll never want to leave.
