I wanted to return to Gecko Rock after my first solo visit, so my GF and I headed on down for the Thanksgiving week. We also stayed in Mexico City on either 'side' of our week at Gecko Rock which we HIGHLY recommend. Mexico City is fantastic, but back to Gecko Rock... Since I visited last, a cool roof lounge area has been added on top of each building. The lounge area is a great way to relax with an awesome view of the sunset in the evening. Do take advantage of the sundowner drink specials... they are yummy and they get delivered to you on the roof! Go Mike! At night, the roof decks make a great place for stargazing. The food was fantastic as always. We liked the lighter, boxed lunch options. No more FOMO if you are away from the resort during lunch time. The Passion Fruit

margarita will be talked about for years. Be sure to try whatever margarita special is available, these are always awesome We did the Mazunte trip and the Puerto Escondido trip. I recommend both of these if you visit for the first time. These trips are a great way to see more of the area and to soak in the culture and to try more of the local cuisine. I also highly recommend the Mezcal tasting. We bought several bottles to take home with us! Note that it does get hot during the day, so any boat trips or hikes are best done early. Mike was an awesome host as always and it was great to hang out and chat with him. We had the place to ourselves and so much time was spent just relaxing and sipping on great margaritas. We had a great time at Gecko Rock and are looking forward to returning!
