Oh, and regarding beer....after 9 years of grousing, this year, Murph has finally started stocking some dark Mexican beer alongside the 4 or 5 interchangeable Mexican lagers he has always had! Doc, for that reason alone, you need to get back over there!
NaturistDoc Posted - 12/11/2017 : 3:53:43 PM
As long as they can keep the beer cold, I'll do without my cell phone! Thanks, flya!

No cell service, but the WIFI is reasonably reliable. We stay in touch with home via email and Facebook while we are down there. There is adequate solar and generator power for water pumps, lights and keeping your "e-devices" charged. No hairdryers, A/C or coffee-pots, though.

It all works pretty well as long as you are mindful of electricity and water as being finite resources, and that there are consequences for wasting them....which is not a bad life lesson to learn.

At the time we were there - 10 years ago - we couldn't get any signal at PSR and only a sketchy one in Xcalak. However, time marches on, and there might be cell service now, especially now that the cruise port to the north has re-opened. Perhaps prairieflya can enlighten us, since he's been there recently. Or you could email Cindy and Murph and ask them directly.

Hey Doc,

How 'bout cell phone service. We can certainly do without our tablet and social media but like to stay connected to home in case of emergencies.

Diger, "off the grid" doesn't mean camping, They have a generator and solar power, and we never felt starved for electricity. That said, Ms. ND and I weren't as attached to our phones and tablets as people seem to be today. We had books to read, music to listen to, and people to talk with. If, on the other hand, people want to spend vacation hours on Facebook or binge-watching Game of Thrones, PSR is probably not a great choice.

I found Playa Sonrisa three or four years ago online. It sounded very nice but when I found out they were off the grid I just wasn't interested. Now I wish I had given it a chance.

We're the HBR rookies! Only once so far! hahahaha


Hoping to convince our close friends to join us in Fall 2018.

Doc,

We only go once a year...but have been doing it a LOOOONG time!
NaturistDoc Posted - 12/07/2017 : 8:29:28 PM
I am seething with jealous rage at prairieflya's NINE visits to Playa Sonrisa. But he's right about the drive. Once you're out of Cancun, it's a piece of cake other than a slowdown (and those damn 'topes', a brutal form of speed bump) around Playa del Carmen. HBR, PdC, or Tulum would be fine as a halfway point, as would one of the dozens of villas for rent along the coast. Driving the last couple of miles from Xcalak to Playa Sonrisa will definitely give you a good story to tell the folks back home, but it's manageable ... at 5 mph. But don't let the drive deter you. For the right sort of person - one who wants something other than the "Hyatt With Your Pants Off" experience at HBR - it is totally worth it.
FireProf Posted - 12/06/2017 : 5:13:53 PM
Yikes ... 5 hours! Yup ... I'd be looking to spend the night somewhere in between. HBR is only an hour and 20 or 30 mins from the airport and that would make the next leg a bit long. Tulum sounds like a better 1/2 way point!


Thanks for the info!

FireProf, We have always flown in to Cancun, then rented a car and driven to Xcalak, sometimes breaking up the drive with a night or two in Tulum. It's a long, but not difficult drive. The traffic lets up dramatically after Playa del Carmen. We had Thanksgiving dinner reservations at the Leaky Palapa (amazing restaurant run by Canadian expats in Xcalak) and pushed hard to get there from Cancun..made it in just over five hours.

Coming back, our flights aligned so that we made it from breakfast at Playa Sonrisa, to home in Kansas in one day's travel. First time that has happened. My preference, if not pressed for time, is spending a few nights in Tulum on each leg. Intima Resort in Tulum is a great clothing optional option for that.
FireProf Posted - 12/06/2017 : 09:17:19 AM
We visited Hidden Beach this past summer. Playa Sonrisa was quite a ways south of us and if we had stayed at HBR longer, I would have like to rent a car and make the drive. We are members of HBR's vacation club and will return for at least a week and probably longer on our next visit and hopefully, the current owners will still own the place or the new owners keep it clothing optional.

Where did you fly into and how did you get to Playa Sonrisa?

We just returned from a week at Playa Sonrisa last Wednesday, our 9th visit. We had one of the best weeks there ever, mostly due to the wonderful new friends we made (and perfect weather). Murph is ready to sell, but patient. Having said that, 2018 would be a great year to make that trip to the "nude beach at the end of the world" A strong year of bookings from naturists only increases the chances that a potential buyer can put together a viable "nude friendly" business plan

Sounds like a good reason to go to Mexico, sadly it's a long way away. Another one for the bucket list. SBN.
