While I was here for the past six days (http://www.royalhideaway.com/)

1. Fried tortilla chips, cold Modelo beer and fresh chivice eaten on a deck overlooking the crystalline waters of the Yucatan with your best gal is about as close to heaven as one can get and still have a heartbeat.

2. Pale potbellied Eurotrash dudes clad in only bright neon green Speedo's should be beat in the forehead with a tack hammer.

A lot.

3. Real Cuban "Cohiba" robusto cigars coupled with a nice single malt blow doors off ANYTHING you can purchase in the States.

4. Deep fried tamales are now my official snack favorite.

5. Fish tacos. 'Nuff said.

Hopefully you realize this soon. If "it" smells like fish, it's dirty.

Can't say I've ever been to the Cove, where's it at?

The resort is all-inclusive, six restaurants on the property and pampers you a TON (Private concierge, 24 hour room service, etc.) ran me $8K for the wife and I for a six night stay with the room package we chose (Which got comped to a suite that had two floors, three balconies and overlooked the pools and the beach). We really didn't want to leave.
