The famous pink lakes of Mexico, Rio Lagartos. A magical sight! Pink waters and blue sky, It was like sunset reversed; a feast for eyes! There are plenty of colorful salt lakes near Las Coloradas/Rio Lagartos in the Yucatan peninsula. It is just 2 hours drive away from Chichén Itzá and around 3 hours from Cancun. Public transport is scarce in this part of Mexico.
We took a rental car and it was an easy and comfortable journey for us :) Once we reached Las Coloradas, we were welcomed by giant white salt mountains. After driving around the salt mountains for some time, we finally found someone local who took us to this beautiful private salt lake.

Hotel Riu Palace Las Americas - Adults Only- All Inclusive

10/10 Excellent

"Everything with this all-inclusive stay was great, so I gave it five stars. However, I have two comments: 1: The pool operating hours are from 10:00 to 19:00, which is not ideal. I prefer early morning or late-night pool access, which was not available. 2: there was no duvet, and we were given blankets that were not in good condition. We asked for two other blankets, but those were not in good condition either. Other than these two issues, every aspect was great."
