Happy Friday, friends, and cheers to the weekend!! We’ve got two jam-packed days of volleyball on the agenda, so I’ll be doing a lot of cheering and sitting (thank goodness for this butt-saver). Knowing first-hand how quickly these years go, I’m here for every bit of it though! I love watching our sweet girl compete and grow more confident in herself and her abilities.
Today I’m excited to share snapshots from our Mexico trip last week! For the last several years, the Belmond Maroma Resort has been our special getaway, but they’re currently closed for renovations.
Several of you recommended Hotel Esencia as a similar option you love, and it was love at first sight! The price tag is painful (the splurgiest splurge we’ve ever done, so it was our Christmas/Birthday/Valentine’s Day in one!), but it was absolutely flawless.
No detail is overlooked, from monogrammed beach towels to pool-side popsicles, and there is design inspiration everywhere you look. Not to mention, it’s only 45 rooms over 50 acres, so it’s incredibly peaceful and quiet.
We look forward all year to these getaways as a chance to unplug, reconnect, and reflect on the previous year. Basically like marriage boot camp… with guacamole!
Here’s a peek at our weekend, along with what I packed and wore. Of course I brought more than I needed, but resort wear is just too fun! Each item is linked under the picture, sizes included.
