| Tropical party resorts
A group of friends and I are planning to head somewhere tropical sometime during early May. Does anyone know of any all inclusive party resorts with a younger early 20ish crowd. We were leaning to cancun but have heard it is only really busy during spring break. any feedback is welcome thanks

Cancun is the best party place you are going to find.

Cancun is good times any day of the season. It might be crazier yet during spring break but if a bunch of you are going, it will be plenty busy.
We stayed at the Riu Palace in Cancun proper and found it to have a pretty good mix of young people, it was not the newest or fanciest but it was probably the most fun I have had there and the rooms and food were good enough to not be a negative.

Cancun is where its at!
I just went with 9 guys in January and it was crazy.
we stayed at the grand oasis, which is a little farther from central strip but was known as the party hotel. They had 2 clubs in the resort open to public as well.
We bought a package called the party package and it came with:
1 tix and open bar to a club called THE CITY
1 Tix and open bar to a club/show called COCO BONGO ( wiild party place, basically shoulder to shoulder).
1 all you can drink cruise to a small island where we snorkeled and shopped there.
if the party scene is what you're looking for
then coco bongo and the city is the 2 wildest clubs we went too.
brings lots of $1 bills american to tip because the whole place is ran through tips.

there was no problems at all. we didn't go into town where the locals stayed but we stayed around the stripe where all the clubs and bars were which is outside the resort area.
as long as you mind your own business and not start any trouble with the locals they are fine.
we met alot of people from Cuba, Columbia, Mexico City, Brazil and Australia.
we went to the flea market and bargained like crazy and nothing happend.
no trouble whats so ever.

Every night the hotel has a bus that goes to a different club. The cost is $35 to $50 a night that includes entry and table service. You get a bottle of your choice, mix, and glasses. If you want another bottle just tip the server. You have to find your own way back. Went out 6 of the 7 nights we were there. Saw Clinton Sparks play at City. They flew him in from Vegas just for the night. That club is nuts. Better than any Vegas club i have been too. Has a capacity of 5000 people. They alsways have big acts there. Check out there website: The City Cancun
