My mom and I did a Secrets resort and really liked it! I was nervous about it being too couples focused, but there was a good mix of people. Beautiful property and the spa and food was higher quality than others I’ve been to.

We did secrets maroma beach. We did about 4 days and liked the close proximity to the Cancun airport. I will tell you the beach itself was a little disappointing and had a lot seaweed. I think that was a general problem for the entire region due to recent weather. Otherwise everything was top notch!

My best friend and I just went to an adults only resort in Negril. It’s smaller than the chain ones and it has all inclusive options. It’s called Spa Retreat Boutique Hotel. Only potential drawback is I don’t know if they have double bed options. Otherwise: scenery was breathtaking( it was on the cliffs), food was delicious, about 10 minutes to 7 mile beach and town center. Rockhouse hotel is another, though I’m not sure they’re adults only.

Always wanted to try Grand Velas but prices seem really high. Was it worth the increase from say a Secrets or similar?

I posted here some months back about my ectopic pregnancies but today, I'm posting to tell you all to hang in there and God will do it for you. (Please don't insult me of you don't believe in God because I strongly do).
In a nut shell, we had baby #1 without trying. Started trying for #2 and over 2 years, I had 4 miscarriages and 2 ectopics. In July, my doc informed me that the only way forward was through IVF. I was tired and confused. I PRAYED! and continued trying. (The rest in the comments.)

Need advice. Have some credit card debt that I’ve been working to pay off. Have made progress but want to lower it quickly. We have dual income, with a house (~$300k in equity), 1 kid and 1 on the way. I’ve looked into debt consolidation via HELOC but also have ~$80k in vested equity in my company that I haven’t touched. Get equity refreshes every year. Would it be smarter to cash out $15k-$20k of that to pay debt vs. a HELOC at ~5% given that will still require mthly payments
