In case you haven’t seen the memo: Tulum is a popular choice for celebrities on vacation, including Hollywood stars, TV personalities and supermodels. So far, 2017 has already seen an impressive parade of the rich, famous and ultra-recognizable, including models from the 2017 Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Edition, Drew Barrymore, Al Pacino, Richard Gere, Leonardo DiCaprio, Sienna Miller, Kim and Kourtney Kardashian and Selma Blair, among others.

Home to the most beautiful beaches in the world, it’s no surprise that the magical beachfront town of Tulum was selected as the backdrop for the much-anticipated 2017 Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Edition. As SI reported, Tulum is located on Mexico’s only Caribbean coast, just an hour and a half south of the Cancun International Airport and less than one hour south of Playa del Carmen.

Much of the recent political rhetoric coming out of the U.S. since the rise of President Donald Trump has shed a negative light on Mexico, despite the long history of close partnership between the two neighboring countries.

After much speculation over the past two years, this weekend confirmed that DreamWorks animation studios will operate not just one but two theme parks in Punta Maroma, which lies just north of Playa del Carmen and just south of Cancun in the heart of Mexico’s Riviera Maya.

As a father of 2 young kids who love the warm turquoise waters,white sandy beaches, snorkeling and – of course – the amazing parks that already exist in the area around Playa del Carmen, Mexico. Parks like Xcaret, Xel-Ha and Punta Venado Eco Park are part of what makes living in the Riviera Maya so amazing… I thought there was NO WAY anyone could make this area any better for families and travelers on vacation. Until now.

Gorgeous white-sand beaches and sunny year round temps have drawn more than just tourism dollars to Mexico’s Riviera Maya.
