San Jose

San Jose del Cabo…not the “actual” Cabo. I just checked 5 random days from SFO-SJD in January. Flights are around $200-250. There are also several oceanfront properties with condos for rent. One without a view is $53 a night. You’re within walking distance to restaurants, bars, art district, beach, etc.

I did this trip a few years back. I was there for 8 days and I think all in (coffees every morning, big lunches/dinners), I was under $900.

Go to Chiapas and stay in a little Airbnb in San Cristobal de las casas, see Palenque, go to waterfalls, sumidero canyon. Hang out by the beach and go surfing in San Juan del Sur. You can go to Lake Atitlan and stay at the Yoga Forest for under $500 a week. There is so much to do at the lake!

Was in Chiapas earlier this year - San Cristo was awesome!! I’ll have to check out the lake next time

Playa Del Carmen. Get the cheapest flight you can into CUN and take the ADO bus from the airport to Playa. There are plenty of hotels and condos on AirBnB that are comfy for $50-90 per night. Eat street food or at reasonably priced restaurants. Walk 5th Avenue, beach, pool, take the colectivo to the ruins in Tulum and to a cenote along the highway.
Source: did 8 days in Playa from Chicago for two people all inclusive under $1k as a student.

If anyone is interested in taking a summer trip to Myrtle Beach from 7/29-8/5, I am renting out my timeshare with Marriott's OceanWatch Villas at Grande Dunes. This resort is right on the beach and offers many fun activities for the whole family! The two-bed, two-bath condo has a fully furnished kitchen and can fit up to 8 people. I am ideally looking for someone to rent it out for the entire week for about 3K total. Message me for more information!

DD has great people and WLB, but pay is low and you’re not given the tools and resources to succeed + truly make an impact. Google and Apple are ideal but need backups. Like is Salesforce still good? A company along those lines.
