thats exactly why it DOES matter what hotel you stay at. i stay within walking distance of my favorite bars.
i'm not saying cancun sucks, 'm sure its awsome, but pcb is awsome as well, i was not dissapointed at all this year. when i stayed at the sunspree it kinda sucked. had to drive every night, couldnt bring girls to the room unless they were staying in the same hotel. those kind of things are all influenced by where you are staying. and i believe it makes a big difference on your experience.
i considered going to cancun this year, but after reading many articles like the following i decided against it
Cancun Takes a Breather
by Erik Olsen Mar 15th 2006 @ 8:57AM
We did a piece for AOL about some of the hidden spots to check out during Spring Break in Mexico. Not on the list, for reasons that should be obvious, was Cancun. Me, I'm no fan of Cancun, the sweltering, tourist-ridden Shangri-la for, it seems, every cheesy American partygoer who wants to "experience" a foreign culture. Sure, the diving is good at nearby Cozumel, but you can have Cancun. that said, it looks like the city, a Mecca for Spring Breakers,
is taking a breather this year. Hurricane Wilma messed the place up pretty good five months ago, and it is doubtful that many folks will descend on the city for wet T-shirt contests and tequila quaffing. In fact, old MTV won't even be hosting its spring break beach party there.
Nearly half of the city's hotels are still closed, and Cancun has plunged as a viable Spring Break destination. Tourism officials say they expect about 25,000 visitors in Cancun this season, compared to 40,000 last year. Where did everyone go? Looks like many have taken their beer bongs south to the Maya Riviera or to Acapulco. Am I shedding a tear? Not really. I'm sure the city will be back, and maybe they need the break.
