Recently I came across a great article written by Travelweek which has great information that I want to share with you. It's about a website with trip reviews written by Canadians.
At monarc.ca, Canadian travellers post their ratings and feedback about recently-visited hotels and resorts. Each month Travelweek’s Insider Report delivers Monarc.ca’s three highest-ranking hotels in the categories of Best Overall, Best Beaches, Best for Families, Best for Couples and Quality and Price.
Following is their most recent picks and I must agree, they are good ones. One of my favourites on the list is Maroma Beach on the Mayan Riviera in Mexico. I recently stayed at the Eldorado Maroma, and my experience there was absolutely wonderful. This has to be one of the nicest beaches I've seen.
