no shoes, no shirt, no problems

I'm more than a little jazzed about Hotel Barrio Latino in Playa Del Carmen.  Not only do we have a private hammock deck on our garden view room, but look how cute and blue it is!  One block from the main street, two blocks from the beach.  Zero blocks from the bar.

Best part?  The price of this vacation keeps going down!  I got the Lonely Planet Cancun, Cozumel and the Yucatan guidebook, which recommended this and few other lovely midrange hotels. I checked the hotel's website price vs. Travelocity - it was the same. So I used Travelocity to earn 1,300 points, and cashed in some old points for another $100 off the price.  We're down to $56/night - that's cheaper than staying at the Snowed Inn!

Now, to find a hotel deal in Cancun and choose our diving trips...
