This is something I can not stress enough as many people go on vacation only to find they forgot something. The worst part it could of been prevented with a simple check list. At the end of this article I will include a simple list that you can print off and use.
When traveling you will find that a list will keep you organized and it is one of the simplest tools to make. Take 15 minutes and write down items that you need. This may sound dumb but even add items such as underwear, short and whatever. Being a simple concept to bring these items they are often overlooked. One of the most important...

Why would anyone tan? Well it makes you look better and also feel better. When going on vacation where the sun is intense do you take sun screen? Of course everyone does you need it. For those to take sun screen and still burn I would recommend to pretan at a tanning salon at least 3 weeks before the trip. It is an inexpensive way to help prevent sunburn as you skin is already use to the UV rays. Do not get me wrong you can still get a sunburn but this will help.I myself use to be pale skinned but started to go tanning about 3 years ago I go about once a week now and never felt better.I can stand...

Carambola Beach Resort & Spa located in St. Croix a US Virgin Islands is Beautiful. The views are very nice and are “A Hawaii view for cheap”. Though absolutely stunning views this resort had a few problem.
The staff are horrid as its rare to see them and they just do not care. Looking for a staff member will be a huge task. The dining situation is also annoying as the restaurant is rarely opened and overcharged like most of the things in this hotel. Because the food out side of the hotel is not very safe you must surrender to the hotels timeliness. Many people say that at check...

The Riu Palace Los Cabos is truly a Palace. Kept clean and with friendly staff you are sure to enjoy yourself. This resort is one for people that love the whole all-inclusive atmosphere. The drinks are a bit diluted but its all-inclusive so really who cares.
Located in the southern Baja California peninsula, 2.8 miles from Cabo San Lucas and 25 miles from San Jose del Cabo Airport. This 5 story luxury resort is sure to turn heads. The beach front is amazing with a clean taken care of beach.
The rooms make you want to stay longer, some suites even go so far to have hydro-massage bathtubs and a jacuzzi...

Not all these things are needed or a must. Although they are useful and if you bring them it will most likely be a lot cheaper then purchasing any of these items at your destination.
An underwater camera – If you are going to a ocean front location or any place with a pool this is a fun and useful item. Having an underwater camera will open your friends eyes to a place where you don’t see many pictures of. You can buy a underwater disposable camera for around $15 usually but last time I was in Mexico they wanted $25usd for the same camera.

My experience at The Reef Playacar was a great one. Located on the gorgeous Mexican Caribbean on the Rivera Maya coast about 40 miles south of Cancun. Making it great was the friendly staff or the awesome layout of the resort. This resort is close to the town (about 5-10 min walk) and had one of the nicest beaches I have seen for a while.
The beach was beautiful and clean. It was seriously one of the cleanest beaches I have been too. They have sandbags out in the ocean to keep the swimming part calmer but on the other side is a man made reef that is pretty neat. You can rent equipment such as...
