Tennis Resort Review: Las Brisas Huatulco, Mexico

Image
Since it's already August and flight from Toronto to Huatulco resume in about two months  from now, I thought I'd recycle the review of one of my favourite tennis resorts in Mexico in case anyone is looking for some tennis trip ideas. The Huatulco area is very peaceful, focused heavily on eco-tourism, with just a handful of hotels. Las Brisas Huatulco features 3 beaches open for swimming. Unlike in Puerto Vallarta or Cancun, there are no beach vendors anywhere in sight so you're guaranteed to be able to relax while soaking in the sun. Also, you won't meet any timeshare representatives at the airport. Photos (c) MegiMK What more do you need for a perfect vacation? You say tennis courts? Las Brisas Huatulco has you covered!
