DAY 1

Travel: United Airlines
They hand out pretzels made in a peanut-free facility. My little had 8 bags!

Lunch: Isla Contoy
This restaurant is wonderful! Located between the pool and the beach, it is an open air restaurant so you can’t have a bad seat. Everything has a great view, food is fresh, and menus are clearly labeled. We ate here five times—breakfast twice, lunch, and then dinner twice. Never an issue, very consistent and delicious.

Hotel: Grand Fiesta Americana
They were so helpful, every restaurant knew about allergies, and could make anything you needed! Our last night, the chef made a special vegan dessert just for our little one. Would go here again!
DAY 2

Treat: Aldo’s Gelato
This was a hidden gem in Playa Del Carmen! The sorbet is kept separate from the dairy flavors and they will get a clean scoop and sorbet from the back if requested. Super delicious and clean!!
DAY 3

Venue: XPlor
They were very helpful when we explained our daughter had allergies. They helped us navigate the buffet to find safe food options for her.
DAY 4

Lunch: Hacienda Selva Maya
They checked ingredients, prepared food separately and helped us find safe lunch options when we were there. Having a translation card or native speaker is helpful here since there is a language barrier.
