Isla was so beautiful and local. I didn’t want to be in Cancun. It’s too touristy for me. The island can be explored with golf carts. There are several beaches. The food is delicious. Overall a great experience.

Isla Mujeres is one of my absolute favorite destinations. It is a small island off the coast of Cancun. I felt right at home my entire stay. So beautiful, fun & relaxing. I can't wait to go back.

I couldn’t recommend Isla Mujeres enough. Good vibes, delicious food, friendly people, and cheap prices. I also felt very very safe. It’s a small island and it’s mainly golf carts and taxis on the roads, but I absolutely loved it.
