Top Travel Days of 2024, Living La Villa Life on Mexico’s Rivera Maya

In October, I headed to Mexico to meet up with my Largay Travel Family, hosted by Villas of Distinction. But first I needed two days of Me Time to unwind, get a spa treatment, swim in the ocean, dine on great food and enjoy some spicy margaritas, all at the fabulous all-inclusive adults-only property, Le Blanc Spa Resort in Cancun. Then it was off to Rivera Maya to jump into cenotes, zipline, dance with a mariachi band and snorkel, as they wined and dined us in style! Our group stayed at four different gorgeous villas which were linked together and lined the beach. Each villa had an authentic Mexican style and were adorned with art and each had a pool overlooking the beach. One even had a pickleball court in its large courtyard! With an amazing chef and staff, the villas offered us a wonderful place for lounging and enjoying each other’s company without a care in the world. One night’s entertainment meant that I even got a chance to pretend I was in The Blue Man Group!

Virtuoso Travel Week Highlights, Yucatan’s Chable Resorts

Chable YucatanOn one of the most glorious stretches of beach in the Yucatan sits the relatively new Chable Maroma and its 70 standalone villas. All villas have private entrance, plunge pools, outdoor showers, within easy walking distance to the beach and restaurants. As much as we love Chable Maroma, its sister property outside Merida, Chable Yucatan, is a very special wellness retreat, featuring one of the best spas in the region. Chable is now offering a special deal when you combine the two properties. Visit for 6 nights and they’ll give you two nights free. They’ll even provide transportation with a stop at the Mayan ruins of Chichen Itza.
