  1. I love scuba diving but have only gone in warm water. My husband and I certified in a quarry where it was 50 degrees at the bottom. We vowed to never dive in cold water again. BUT this place sounds amazing. Maybe someday we will be more adventurous and try it out. Kudos to you for doing this dive!

    I really want to dive this, but also really claustrophobic especially to weird things like feeling like I’m stuck in a tight shirt or can’t get a sports bra off. This is why I have put off getting my dry suit certification. Is it so tight around your neck that you feel like you can’t breathe and is this dive worth a potential panic attack (the panic attack would happen while getting the suit on, not under water)? I’ve heard it feels like loosens up a bit once you are in this water, true?

      Hi Lindsey! I understand and that was one of my reservations before getting certified with PADI. Those are definitely things you’d want to bring up with the dive center and chat with them to see if it’s something you can work through. I talk a bit more about that here: https://theblondeabroad.com/getting-padi-diver-certified/

Unforgettable memories from the ultimate girls’ weekend getaway—with 18 kids, sunshine, and pure luxury at @lascasitaspm 🌴✨

Las Casitas is managed by @vehm.mx, the premier property management company in Punta Mita. They oversee the most exclusive villas in the area, and every one of their properties is fully staffed and loaded with luxury amenities.

This gorgeous beachfront estate in the exclusive Kupuri community features three private casitas, 12 bedrooms, 13.5 bathrooms, a stunning infinity pool, hot tub, gym, and beach access. It’s designed for big groups, but feels intimate, relaxed, and totally elevated.

The real MVPs? The incredible full-time staff. We had a chef, sous chef, pastry chef, butler, concierge, and housekeeping—literally someone looking after our every need. Every meal was a gourmet experience, and every moment was effortless (which, with 18 kids, is saying a lot).

@vehm.mx helped us coordinate in-house massages for the mamas, and organized a piñata for the kids and a mariachi band to celebrate Oliver’s birthday THREE-esta!

Perfect for a 40th birthday, girlfriend getaway, or large family trip—we’re already planning our return. I can’t recommend it enough (or stop talking about it)!
