Memorial Day Cocktail: Strawberry Watermelon Frozen Seltzer

I feel like there is a common theme on my website and it is drinks and food lol it might not always be exactly either of those things but pretty close and at least one of them is involved somehow. Originally I was going to put together a whole blog post covering a themed Memorial Day party but I just don’t think that many people are going to be having huge get togethers {which I totally get!} yet. BUT I DO think that people will still be celebrating and more importantly, enjoying a yummy cocktail. Let me help you with it! I love drinks that have fruit in them, it just makes it feel more fresh. SO I put together a fun Memorial Day inspired cocktail for your weekend!

My Beach Essentials

Since we have moved to Florida we have been going to the beach more and more frequently. My personal favorite is Siesta Key Beach. It is easy to get to, parking is usually easy {depending on what time you get there} and its a family friendly beach but not overly crowded by any means. In addition to that, there were two years of us living in Boston where we lived ON the beach! It was our favorite part of being there. We spent most of our weekend days at the beach and most of our lunch breaks at the beach during the week! Over that time I have figured out exactly what I want/need in my bag when I go! I 90% of the time always wear shorts and a shirt rather than a cover up and I’m not sure why. Lately, I am more drawn to coverups but usually stick with jeans.

I just recently got a new beach bag and I am loving it! The one I had before I bought from a boutique a few years ago but I found one that is identical from Amazon for about $16! The one that I have now is the perfect size! I put a towel and my sunglasses case in the bag. I bring the case so I can put my glasses in there when I take out the sunglasses. I add a book, usually whatever I am reading at that time, I will link a couple that I am reading now. I bring a water, I prefer a straw so the pink one is the one I use! Lastly, the sunscreen! This sunscreen always stays in this bag to reapply with and then we have one for home to use before we leave. I also love this tinted lip balm that has sunscreen in it. Seriously there is one thing worse than getting a sunburn and its having burnt lips! So painful!

| PINK WATER BOTTLE | NEUTROGENA SPF | SUN BUM TINTED LIP BALM | LOOSE TANK TOP | BLACK SHORTS | BIKINI | BLACK SUNGLASSES | BEACH BAG | WHITE SLIP ON SANDALS | WINTER IN PARADISE | NOVEMBER 9 | BEACH TOWEL | BEACH UMBRELLA | SMALL FAN |

When we lived at the beach, I liked to keep it simple. But now when I go to the beach there are a few more things that I bring. What do you bring to the beach!? I would love to know! You can leave a comment below or send me an email at tarynintotravel@gmail.com! I can’t wait to hear from you!

Secrets Playa Mujeres Travel Diary

I can’t even contain my excitement that I have a TRAVEL DIARY blog post to share with you guys! Its been well over a year.. maybe even a year and a half and these are my favorite to write! Obviously you guys know travel is in my websites name but most of you haven’t been around since the beginning when I exclusively shared travel content. Since the beginning so much has changed and I share so many other things {which I love} but it is nice to get back to traveling and sharing about it. Anyways, now I am blabbing about nothing. Our stay with Secrets Playa Mujeres was INCREDIBLE. We loved the views, the food, the staff, the atmosphere. It was all great and they were so great with my gluten allergy! I could go on and on but the concierge staff were amazing, the bar staff, restaurant staff at ALL of the restaurants were just the nicest.

Secrets Playa Mujeres Golf & Spa Resort

Overview

• All inclusive resort

• Adults only resort

• 40 minute drive from Cancun Airport

• Free wifi {I didn’t have problems once connecting to the wifi!}

• 9 restaurants

• 2 pools and an infinity pool

• 1 swim up bar, 1 beach bar and 7 bars/lounges

• An amazing spa

We were there for 4 nights and 5 days and it was the perfect amount of time. TIP: Being flexible with travel dates has really helped us in finding the best deals.  Secrets Playa Mujeres is all-inclusive and had a ton fun activities on site. They had everything from jet ski rentals, parasailing, a great pool with a swim up bar, an infinity pool, tons of restaurants with different cuisines. They also have their own beach that is just beautiful! At Secrets, all tips are technically included but we tipped throughout the whole trip. We pulled out cash at the hotel in the Preferred Clubhouse down by the rooms. We got out about $150 in ones and fives.

They were also iPads in each room and on the iPad was a list of the restaurants that were open that evening, which activities were going on during the day, if the nightclub was open. These had a ton of information that was very helpful. A lot of these things were usually questions that you would call the concierge for but all of the information was just right there in front of you. We were in the preferred area of the resort so we actually had a special breakfast restaurant that we were able to go to. The Restaurant was amazing it’s called Oceana and YUM. Breakfast lunch and dinner we’re all spot on we loved it there and had breakfast there every day even though we had other options.

We were there for Dustin’s birthday and they went all out for him! We had a bottle of champaign brought to the room and they left a little dessert for him that said “Happy Birthday” on the plate. They also put a birthday banner on our door which was really cool to walk up and see! Maria worked in the front of the hotel when you checked in and she really took the time to get to know us! We also were greeted by the concierge and that’s where I was given a little card that I gave to the restaurants to let them know that I have a gluten allergy. It was in English and Spanish just to make sure there wasn’t any miscommunication. I felt 100% safe eating at every single restaurant! I would also just like to take a moment to complain that THIS is the only photo I took out of ALLLLL of the food I ate while on vacation?! Oh well, these tacos were GOOD! Like SO good!

What to Wear

I actually brought double the amount of swimsuits that are linked below but the rest were sold out or no longer sold! I have had really great luck with Shein swimwear, especially since we are in the pool all of the time now and wear them most days of the week! Amazon swimsuits are also really great and at a great price point! I will do a swim round up of sorts in the near future for you guys!

Secrets Playa Mujeres was an actual dream. We actually visited as guests and left members, we were so impressed! Have you traveled to/stayed at a Secrets or Dreams location before? What was your experience? I would love to know what you thought of it. You can comment below or you can send me an email at tarynintotravel@gmail.com and I will respond to you there!

In TWO days it will be MAY??? I can’t even believe that! We are just under two weeks out from Mother’s Day and I am going to be on top of it this year. We already got our cards and they are going in the mail ASAP lol. I feel like usually I remember a few days before and then SCRAMBLE to figure out what I am going to do and then end us doing something really last minute!

I really try not to switch products a ton unless there is another reason for something new! If you have any questions I would be more than happy to answer those for you!
