    In this episode of The Know Before You Go Travel Show, we’re giving listeners a preview of our upcoming stay at Hyatt Vivid Playa del Carmen. Before we arrive, we’re breaking down everything we know about the resort so far and what travelers should expect if they’re considering booking it. Hyatt Vivid is part of Hyatt’s newer “Vivid” concept, designed to offer a relaxed, modern, adults-focused experience in one of the most popular destinations in Mexico. But how does it compare to the more traditional luxury all-inclusive resorts? In this episode we discuss: • Our first impressions of the resort concept
    • The overall vibe and style Hyatt seems to be going for
    • Location advantages in Playa del Carmen
    • What the pricing looks like and where the value stands
    • Who we think this resort is perfect for
    • What we’re most excited to check out once we arrive
    • And the key things we’ll be evaluating during our stay We’ll also share what sets Hyatt Vivid apart from other resorts in the area and what questions we’re hoping to answer once we experience it in person. This is a great episode for travelers who are curious about newer resorts in Riviera Maya and want to understand whether Hyatt Vivid could be a great value alternative to higher-priced luxury properties. Stay tuned because after our trip, we’ll return with a full in-depth review of the resort including rooms, food, service, and whether it ultimately lived up to expectations.
