SVH Travel, as you know, always visits resorts and documents them with video and photo content. On May 4th, Riu opened its brand new Riu Palace Peninsula in Cancun, Mexico. With its unique contemporary modern design, this hotel had me amazed! This Riu resort had its own VIP exclusive villa section, more than 30 suites with their own outdoor jacuzzis, and its superior types of rooms that gave visitors a beautiful look around Cancun! I have gone to take content from this newly opened resort, but in Cancun I also went around for site inspection to Paradisus La Esmeralda and Paradisus La Perla which seperated its family area from the Adults only section. I had also visited Dreams Puerto Aventuras, Oasis Sense, Fiesta Americana Condesa, Iberostar Cancun, and Oasis Complex, which distinguished itself from its three sections, the Oasis, Grand, and Sense. Soon I will be uploading the HD Slideshow and Video content for these resorts. During this business trip, I managed to interview Richard Valdes and Hugo Aguilera. To watch this interview, click here.

SVH Travel Is Invited to the Brand New Riu Palace Peninsula!
SVH Travel visits Cabo San Lucas
Just recently, I visited Cabo San Lucas. In November 2011, the first Secrets Resort in Cabo was opened, Secrets Marquis. The Secrets Marquis is the AM Resort’s third resort in Cabo, following Dreams Los Cabos and Zoetry Casa Del Mar. Being a luxury boutique hotel, the Secrets Marquis is an Adults-only property. Offering 24-hours room service, unique dining, and excellent service, I was impressed with many aspects of this resort. I will shortly be introducing the newly opened Secrets Vallarta in Mexico. I also went for site inspection at Barcelo Los Cabos Deluxe. This resort offered swim-out suites, a designated adults-only area, and live entertainment every night. Having many different restaurants to arouse your taste buds, the Barcelo hotel had Italian, French, Asian, and Spanish dining choices. The resort also offered an iPod dock that was hooked up with the TV, accessing your iPod on the big screen. A certain aspect that I really found interesting were the electronically controlled curtains. Bel Air Collection Resort & Spa was yet another hotel that I site inspected, along with Hola Grand Faro all-Inclusive hotel. The Hola Grand Faro had a unique lighthouse that gave visitors a 360 degree view of Cabo San Lucas! Melia Cabo Real, located between San Jose and Cabo San Lucas, had a nice, beautiful layout. My final site inspection, Dreams Los Cabos, was a luxury all-Inclusive hotel. All the rooms at the resort had flat tvs, and on the top-most floor, the hotel had a Premium Club lounge. With many unique restaurants, this hotel also featured a fascinating spa and kids’ club! Once again, SVH Travels offers many exclusive deals to Cabo San Lucas. I am going to be visiting Cancun, and I will bring back many photos and videos of its’ newest and high-class resorts, including the newly-opened Riu Palace Peninsula and Paradisus Resorts’.

The Grand Velas Riviera Nayarit Experience
I visited this hotel with my son for site inspection. The Grand Velas in Riviera Nayarit, Mexico was just splendid! The Spa was amazing, as usual, too amazing to be captured of video or photo. The Grand Velas in Puerto Vallarta did not disappoint me, with its two different temperature pools, its amazing eatery, and its beautiful location! Grand Velas left me in awe once again! I just had to share some of its beauty with our followers and you can view the Hotel’s information by Clicking Here. Take a look through our Photos and decide for yourself wether Grand Velas is of your liking! Our Grand Velas HD Slideshow will be uploaded soon, so stay tuned for that and constantly check back! Grand Velas is a top of the line chain of hotels, visiting the Grand Velas in Riviera Nayarit we were amazed to see that each cycling treadmill in the Gym had its own mini TV! Grand Velas cares about the small details that make a resort amazing, and that is makes the difference!
