A few days ago, I was scrolling Instagram and came across a post of a woman and her high school daughter. In the post, she shared that her daughter wanted to spend some time in Columbia.
The mother was ecstatic and was ready to book their accommodations for three months. She explained that Columbia was open to travelers now, so why not? Especially with her working remotely and her daughter going to school virtually.
Her post exuded someone who was financially secure and enjoyed freedom and luxury.
So, if you are looking for a bit of a luxurious getaway but aren’t ready to travel as far, why not consider just south of the border; Mexico?
Please travel responsibly and understand current COVID restrictions for land versus air travel.
Luxury in Mexico
Anywho, when it comes to talking about luxury vacations out of the country, there’s one destination that often gets overlooked, and that’s Mexico. Even with all of its gorgeous beaches, some fantastic villas, and a growing tourist industry bringing world-class service.
Let’s take a glimpse into some of these below.
Some of the World’s Best Beaches
With as much coastline as it has, it should be no surprise just how gorgeous Mexico’s beaches can be. Think of Acapulco’s coastline. It has varying golden sands to majestic cliffs topped by luxury rental villas. It’s a great example of the kind of oceanfront you can expect from the country.
It’s ideal for those who want to enjoy the high life on the town, as well. Think of places like the Siboney Piano Bar which offers some of the classiest evenings you can have in the country.
World-Class Resorts
The tourist industry of Mexico is on the rise and one of the ways it’s growing is in the offerings of luxurious all-inclusive vacation spots. These spots situate you in the sunniest, most relaxing locales and see to your every need.
This Lifestyle Holidays Vacation Club review gives an overview of the kind of service and quality of vacation you can have at one of these all-inclusive spots.
This is great to consider for those who want to take a lot of the fuss out of organizing their vacation because these spots offer everything you need from one place including accommodation, food, and travel links to tourist hotspots.
The Heart of It All
As the second-largest city in the world, it can be difficult to find what’s best about Mexico City. A lot of people have it in their mind as a bustling but messy place.
However, there is a sophisticated city center there with a real boutique culture that can satisfy those with expensive tastes when it comes to their shopping, arts and culture.
If you are curious to know. Here are some of the best spots of Mexico City that I found. These include the rum and cigar bar of Moliere 48, the Palace of Fine Arts, and the Museums at Night event that happens once a month.
A True Getaway
Lastly, if you want something with a little more solitude than resorts, beachside communities, and increasingly metropolitan cities, then you might be surprised to find that Mexico is actually home to a growing glamping scene.
And, you know that I love some camping and glamping.
The country is full of natural beauty. Did you know that some of the best glamping sites in places near Playa del Carmen can even put you within walking distance of Mayan ruins? It’s a great way to have luxury delivered to you where you’re staying, rather than having to go out and explore to find it.
Final Thoughts
Well, there you have it. If you’re looking for a taste of overseas luxury in your next vacation, a trip down to Mexico could not only be a little less expensive than flying further afield, but it could be a lot more convenient, making it easier to spend even more time out there.
Again, remember to travel responsibly.
