There are three beaches on the hotel grounds and I found the perfect spot to capture all of them in a single photo.
The sprawling Las Brisas Huatulco resort makes for an awesome first impression.
It's located on a rocky peninsula that juts out into the pacific ocean.

The grounds are absolutely enormous!
The hotel blocks are at different elevations giving everyone a nice view of the bay and ensuring that guests get a good amount of exercise by walking around.

Stairs to our room. First impression is of torturous climb but the satisfaction of getting to the top can't be understated.

We had a stroller for our youngest daughter and this ramp made life easier.
I loved this view; looking out into the bay.

The resort is surrounded by lush natural beauty with incredible views of Tangolunda Bay and the Pacific Ocean. After a bit of walking around and exploring the grounds, I was able to find a perfect vantage point behind the hotel (proceed at your own risk). The views of the cliffs and ocean are breathtaking. I had a feeling of almost complete isolation while being surrounded by the elements - a perfect getaway from the crowds.

The road is narrow to the other sections up the cliff is narrow, these mirrors help with visibility.

And so I went. It was scorching hot and I only lasted 30 min here. It's a lovely spot though.

I had to share my discovery of this spot with the rest of the family.
Keeping an eye on us....just in case someone loses their balance and plunges to the bottom.

Lush vegetation in the botanical garden.
We were fortunate to have good weather for the duration of our stay. There was one tropical storm - it poured buckets and the light show was spectacular.
The next morning, we were greeted with a beautiful sunrise.

After a few beach days, we decided it was time to venture out and see the neighbouring town of La Crucecita.

Our flight from Mexico City to Huatulco took us over the magnificent Volcan Popocatépetl.
