Hi all,

I already posted a thread about a trip planned with my husband and twin 4-year olds. We were all booked for the Rosewood Mayakoba. Coming from the SF Bay Area, for what that's worth.

Well, things have changed - we now have my mother and father in law joining us (we are no taking them as a 50th anniversary/80th birthday trip). The inclination is to switch to the Montage Kapalua, which my family went to once and we were supposed to go with my in laws last year (cancelled due to health reasons).

We could book them a room at the Rosewood Mayakoba instead. But it will end up costing us about $7k more to take them with us to the Rosewood vs. the Montage Kapalua.

This trip is in May. So, there are some downsides in Mayakoba - sargassum, current crime issues. But I have to admit I am very intrigued by the Rosewood and was looking forward to it.

So, basically, my questions:

1) Is it worth spending significantly more for the Rosewood Mayakoba over the Montage Kapalua - just from a resort perspective itself?
2) I can look at something in Punta Mita or Cabo instead, I guess. But just from a resort perspective, any reason for me to advocate for one of those places over the Montage Kapalua?

I should note that my in laws are somewhat mobility impaired. They are also not luxury travelers AT ALL. So, they won't be picky in the slightest. This is just about me That being said, I would like to make the experience special. I don't, however, want to throw away $7k to go to a place that's only an incremental improvement.

Thanks!

David
