Travel Alert from U.S. State
Department about Mexico The alerts concern primarily the border
areas between the U.S. and Mexico. Alerts do not include Cancun, Cozumul, Cabo,
Puerto Vallarta, Manzanillo or similar tourism centers. The primary concerns
are on the border of Mexico along the state lines of Texas, New Mexico, Arizona
and southern California.
See more from the U.S. State Department concerning
Mexico.
 This beachfront property
opened in 2008 and includes only 96 rooms, all appointed in cool colors and
fine amenities. Secrets Aura Cozumel faces due west for spectacular roof top
sunsets.
We've been there and found the ambiance intimate although the
resort itself feels larger than 96 rooms. Secrets Aura Cozumel is in a resort
complex adjacent to other vacation properties owned by the same investors; thus
no nudity. A few of the roof top, two bedroom suites have their own plunge
pool, so you have everything you need for a private party. The two-bedroom
penthouse suites are perfect for two couples who travel well together.

 Fly directly into Cozumel
with daily flights from most U.S. cities. Take a taxi or shuttle to the resort
about 30 minutes south of the airport.
If you're on the mainland, on
the Yucatan or Playa del Carmen, take a water taxi from the main pier at Playa
del Carmen across the bay to San Miguel. The trip, depending upon the wind and
weather, takes 30-45 minutes and costs less than $20 (price subject to change
without notice). A taxi stand is immediately in front of the ferry dock on the
main street in San Miguel.

The shallow "mirror pool" welcomes couples just outside of
the resort's main reception area. The European Style main pool interlaces the
first level of suites with a "river-pool" that gently meanders around
 a central island garden granting access from the large
terraces of all first level suites. All suites have beautiful views of the
beach and sea.
Room rates range from $200-400person/night, vary
seasonally, are subject to change without notice. Special sales may also change
the room rate depending upon the season.
We think the most creative
accommodations are the rooftop, 2 bedroom solarium rooms with private, perfect
for two couples.
NOTE: Rates are subject to change without notice and
are not guaranteed until paid.

Adult Couples only…..probably best suited for the
South Beach in crowd. From late 20s to 50s.

 AURA is one
slick resort for upscale couples who enjoy pampering and personal attention.
The meandering pool that links the separate hotel buildings together
is cool. If you're a guest in a Swim Up Suite, you're able to invite your
neighbors in for a drink while they float by.
What it's not: AURA is
not Hedonism or Desire with an hourly routine day and night although you can
participate in all the sports and activities offered. This property carves out
a niche all its own since it's more upscale than any of the other adults only
resorts.

Cozumel is noted
primarily for what goes on below the water's surface and not above it. While
Cozumel's only little town, San Miguel, has grown out of its sleepy, colonial
britches the past 20 years, your major tourist attractions are across the bay
on the mainland of the Yucatan.
Shopping and bar hopping are two
favorite past times in San Pedro.
