Tulum --CRYSTAL WATERS, PINK SKIES, WHITE SANDS. WHERE HIPPY MEETS CHIC
















We only used the car to get to and from the airport.  We used the bikes for everything in between.

A french bakery is always a good idea,  No matter where you are
selling jewelry on the beach,  I resisted but ended up buying a bikini.


These kids were selling fruit and all kinds of trinkets along the beach









 "If I had a backyard, and I built a restaurantor simply a place to entertainin said backyard, it would look like Gitano {with a splash of Hartwood}. Strings of lights hung from marine rope light the open-air space setting the secret jungle garden aglow. The hub, an A-frame bar made of reclaimed wood, is inspiring enough to say "I'll have another" more than once. Add in the Mexican minimalist foodtortilla soup served in a clay bowl or fish tacos neatly placed atop a wooden boardand you'll be sticking around for...another round and some dancing under the disco ball." - unkown


I wish I could remember what this was.




I love the effects from the giant disco ball

Thatched roofs and reclaimed wood with strings of lights hanging in the trees, outdoor tables surrounded by exotic plants and candles is the norm


I took horrible pictures of this place but it was so cool.  Lit by candles and a beach sand floor.



Stuffed squd- Melted in my mouth

Whole grilled snapper
Beach road. This is the one and only road that runs through the town.  Beach on one side Jungle on the other

Wouldn't be Mexico without a Frida 







Hotel Sanara- I so loved this place
