4 ways to escape the winter blues
With dreary winter weather here to stay (for now), grey skies and a new batch of New Year’s resolutions we’re clinging to for dear life, Blue Monday is considered one of the gloomiest days of the year. One sure-fire way to shake off the winter blues is by planning an all inclusive vacation to a tropical destination and trading in blue moods for blue skies. That’s something we can all get on board with! Read on for our list of four ways to escape the winter blues and start packing your bags for paradise!
Dive into the deep blue in Cancun
Head to Cancun, where crystal-clear Caribbean waters provide perfect underwater visibility. One of the world’s most famous dive sites, the Cancun Underwater Museum features over 500 sculptures that are submerged between three-to-six-metres underwater. Created by famous British artist, Jason DeCaires Taylor, the Underwater Museum is composed of three different ‘galleries’ with sculptures that were created by local and international artists. You can visit the museum and marvel at the majesty of its natural coral reefs that have become home to marine life (like lobsters, sea urchins, turtles and more) on a snorkelling tour.
Where to stay: When you’re not exploring the deep blue, you can admire panoramic views of the blue waters from Level 18 Rooftop Cabana Lounge above Royalton CHIC Cancun An Autograph Collection All Inclusive Resort Adults Only. This luxury resort is located on a pristine white-sand beach and is just steps from the hustle and bustle of downtown Cancun.

Explore Cuba in a classic blue car
Discover all the sights, sounds and tastes of Cuba while cruising around in a classic blue American car! What better way to tour the island than in a 1950’s convertible with the sun on your face and the wind in your hair? Drive along the cobblestone streets of Havana to soak up the local culture and visit famous city monuments including El Morro Castle, the Museum of the Revolution and El Capitolio. Or, ride along the coast in Varadero to visit some of the most beautiful beaches in the world, renowned for their pristine sands and calm aquamarine waters.
Where to stay: After exploring Cuba in your classic blue car, you can head back to Meliá Las Antillas for some quality time on the crisp white sands of Varadero Beach. This top-rated adults only resort offers spectacular ocean views from around the property with lush gardens, peaceful lakes and curated amenities, from a sparkling pool to delicious dining, a tasteful piano bar and an on-site nightclub.
Cruise across deep blue seas to a desert island in Punta Cana
Spend the day sailing across the turquoise blue waters of the Caribbean Sea to Saona Island, just off the coast of Punta Cana. Excursions are a great way to enhance your vacation, and make some fond memories to look back on when you’re stuck in the snow and cold! On your way, you’ll stop off at a natural pool lagoon famous for its starfish and enjoy some delicious cocktails, then sail to the white sands of Saona Island where you’ll soak up the sun, relax under a palm tree, play a game of volleyball and learn how to dance the merengue.
Where to stay: After a day spent on a desert island, head back to the newly renovated Tropical Deluxe Princess, perfect for all ages. Take a refreshing dip in the sparkling pool, stroll along famous Bavaro Beach underneath bright blue skies and explore the range of dining options on site, including the brand-new beach club. Kids in tow will love the brand-new splash pad with water slides and rooms with bunk beds!
Snorkel in crystal-clear blue waters in Playa Mujeres
Nestled in an exclusive enclave just 30 minutes outside of downtown Cancun is Playa Mujeres, an intimate resort community home to some of the area’s most beautiful and pristine beaches. The area is also known for its crystal-clear waters, making it an ideal place to snorkel amongst colourful fish and exotic marine species. We recommend taking a luxury catamaran ride to Isla Mujeres, an island just 13 kilometres off the coast of Cancun surrounded by spectacular coral reefs, and is even home to a sea turtle sanctuary and the remains of a Mayan temple. Once arrived, hop off the catamaran and onto the sand where you can relax on the beach or wander the shops before a fantastic lunch back on board.
Where to stay: Vacation Like a Star™ on the pristine shores of Playa Mujeres at Planet Hollywood Cancun An Autograph Collection All Inclusive Resort! The entertainment-themed resort is one of the area’s most popular hotels in Cancun and features an on-site splash park, a FlowRider® surf simulator, an indoor trampoline park ($) and exciting memorabilia.
