Our older son, Miles, recently turned three years old. We wanted to do something for his birthday — he asked to fly somewhere (yay, he’s getting into airplanes!), to a destination with a beach or pool. Or at least that was my interpretation. 😉 Ford and I didn’t want to go too far (since our younger son, Jet, would stay behind with family, given that he wasn’t even six weeks old), and we ultimately decided on the St. Regis Kanai Resort, Riviera Maya.
The 143-room property opened back in early 2023, and I had heard generally good things about it (and for that matter, we had a great stay with Miles at the St. Regis Longboat Key not long before that).
Admittedly Cancun isn’t exactly the most seasonal destination for August, but this trip seemed easy, and checked all our boxes — American even flies a 777 between Miami (MIA) and Cancun (CUN), so that was a fun way to get there.
A great solo travel tip spotted this week on One Mile at a Time.
