My issue is if there are rowdy/loud drunk people and noise all night.
But based on my trips to beach areas in Mexico, skimping/watering down alcoholic drinks is almost the norm now for really cheap resorts. But that's happening mostly everywhere including airport lounges due to inflation. If you're paying a lot of couse normally you will get better service. Good luck.
Thank you, great idea. I like looking at the beach and the ocean but I won't spend time really on the beach, good food is important I suppose and the biggest is not getting sick from either the food or the water that I would never drink from the tap obviously but there are different ways to get it, that's the big one for me.
Plus we are not drinkers and loud partying at night would be annoying. And as I've been to Mexico a few times on cruises I've never spent the night in a property, do I have to buy an adapter for the electrical outlet to charge my electronics? Like iPad iPhone etc. laptop?
