It’s possible to feel like a kid again at any age. The excitement of travel opens our eyes to the beauty in the world, and we return home with memories and experiences that can last a lifetime.

As a graduate of the ...

With THREE graduations to celebrate we wanted a special vacation. Due to coming off of the "C" word pandemic we had not been able to plan Norway as my son graduating high school had wished. We were all exhausted from last baseball games, last dance performances, last track meets, last theater performance, last sports banquets, and even preparations for the graduation ceremony itself.  In other words, we were ready to RELAX.  


Walt Disney World has been an annual tradition since 2000. This occasion called for something different, something with less planning and more recovery. I shared the thought of Hyatt Ziva from Playa Resorts with the family and they all agreed this was the place! 


We arrived in the Cancun airport to our private transfers. There's something magical about arriving and having that friendly face standing just outside the airport holding a a sign with YOUR name on it. They were waiting for you. They were expecting you. You are safe and in good hands now and that peace of mind has a lot of value when you land in a foreign country with your family.


We boarded our private van to the resort and our adventure was underway. Once we got to Hyatt Ziva our worries melted away in the warm Caribbean sun. All the meals, drinks, and entertainment are included. Our first morning we started with yoga over the ocean. During our stay we played water volleyball, we did water aerobics, we saw amazing performances in the evening including circus tricks, break dancing, singing, SO much talent! Did I mention they have a water park? Oh, yes! They have an ocean FRONT water park.


We did leave the resort one day for an adventure to Cozumel island and fabulous snorkeling with the starfish and snorkeling Palancar Reef.


Will we return to Hyatt Ziva? Absolutely, YES! But there are so many locations we will be ready for a new adventure next time.
