Hi All:

I'm planning on taking the family (wife, 7 yr. old and 1 yr old) to the Xcaret Grand Flamenco.....

This will be my first trip to the Mexican Riviera (I've been to Mex City on business close to a dozen times).

First, and foremost...am I nuts to be travelling with a young toddler? Are there decent activities for a 7 year old, not that we're looking to dump him, but I think it would be nice if he got to hang out with other kids.

Secondly, is the Xcaret Flamenco good for kids, or should I consider another all-inclusive, I'd prefer Allegro properties but would like to get your feedback.

Third, what is the locale surrounding the resort like? Safe to walk around (maybe it's my Mexico City paranoia....)???

Finally, I'm looking at the end of June as the time of vacation, is this a decent time to go, does anyone have an idea of occupancy rates, weather, etc???

Thanks for the help!!!

Dave
