Technically it is not Spring!! But since it is 18 degrees here today I
am calling it Spring……
We are busy working on our “Itinerary”, Yes we are planning “THE
MATOS FAMILY HOLIDAY”!!! finally, My little Grandson Charlie is making his
first visit to “My” adored Mexico…….
MEXICO CITY
My daughter Joanne worked with me for 17
years! When I asked her where she wanted to stay she said CAMINO REAL.....This
beautiful Iconic hotel featured so much in both our lives for many years.....to
me it is one of the true treasures of Mexico.... Ignacio Perez Cardenas,
Director General a good friend and constant support to me over the
years........
CAMINO REAL AIRPORT…I am very fond of
this hotel and cannot praise it highly enough. I will bring back with me more
up to date information for our travellers.
Our wonderful Mauricio Owner of the
Company FIRST CLASS TRANSPORTATION, will be taking Charlie to see the famous
Pyramids of TEOTIHUACAN and the Floating Gardens of XOCHIMILCO...…
OAXACA
Where else to stay but the famed HOSTAL
DE LA NORIA.....another great and true friend Mephi Padilla has taken
incredible care of our clients over the years…..
VIAJES XOCHITLAN TOUR OPERATOR & DMC
– ANDRES MARTINEZ has also taken care of our clients so well over the years and
now he will be taking care of Joanne and Charlie
I still do not think people really
realise how much there is to see and do ... The Mayans and their centuries of history
are indeed part of this great country. Yes, there are thousands of miles of
beach, however the hinterland abounds with fabulous opportunities to enjoy
Archaeology, Historical Cities, Mayan culture (remember Mexican History is
older than ours!)
RIVIERA MAYA
The natural route: We at Mexican Tours
would always recommend traveling overland via archaeological sites to the coast
you can visit “hidden gems” plus of course all the major Mayan, Olmec and
Toltec Sites.
For example CHICHEN ITZA…to stay at the
actual Hotel Mayaland and Lodge is a Magical experience. Finally relaxing
at the beach...There are many Boutique and All Inclusive Hotels to choose
From. .The Matos Family have chosen to
stay at the following:
KIN SOL SOLEIL
This gorgeous tiny Boutique property
owned by Jose Luis and Sally (Originally of famed Maroma).
Nine SUITES all individually designed,
Private Pool, glorious sea and jungle views. The Beach is breath taking
and feels very private.
Food.....Divine! Breakfast legendary!
GRAND VELAS… RIVIERA MAYA
Part of this Luxury Chain.
This property has lots of space and the
tranquillity of jungle and Mangroves.
A Family Hotel but with an Adults only
section.
Children’s Club /Baby Sitting/ I love the
Private Butler.
Rated Five Diamonds by the AAA
Part of the AM Resorts Brand....
The Beach is wild and wonderful to walk.
Hotel crammed with family facilities. A
selection of Restaurants. All Great.
I remember Akumal when it was a deserted
paradise. True “Robinson Crusoe“
Now there sits this majestic
property.....surrounded still by the “Akumal “ beaches complete with Turtles.
I have never stayed here before, so
looking forward to being there and of course catching up with
“The Captain of the Ship” Daniel Mellado.
COZUMEL
No visit would be complete without my
lovely Island.....I have spent many, many hours here from the time my daughter
was the
same age as our Charlie...I just have to
take him also ....PLAY AZUL HOTEL..... one of my favourite places, such happy
memories
filled with laughter, beautiful mornings,
sunrises, sunsets, and turquoise sea...wonderful to snorkel or just float in
the water and dream!!
This is a place for golfers as there is a
super course on Cozumel.
I hope to show Charlie some Dolphins.....
INTERJET AIRLINES
I am a great fan of this Airline…we will
be travelling internally with them.www.interjet.com/en-us
News from Mallorca.....
Have discovered a lovely little
Bookshop....Universal....tucked away in Portals.....
So convenient since it is in front of our
favourite Agency
“TICKETS”
All the girls in here are so helpful. Nothing too big or too small to handle.
Visit to my great
Dentist......SANITAS....JUAN MAS
Another Juan... this time JUAN GARCIAS
BATLE
