Why Your Ride to the Resort Matters

Why Your Ride to the Resort Matters (Cora & Lulu’s Tip from Mexico)


After years of floating in turquoise seas and lounging by the reef, Cora the Coral discovered that sometimes the first impression of a vacation isn’t the view from your room — it’s the ride from the airport. On her recent trip to Mexico, she and Lulu the Lemonade skipped the crowded shuttle lines and climbed into a stretch limo. With music playing and plenty of space to stretch out, both Buddies agreed… they’re never going back.

Why Private Transfers Are Worth It


Think of it as pressing the “vacation mode” button early. Instead of squeezing into a bus with a dozen strangers, you’re met at the airport, bags handled, AC humming, and a seat that lets you breathe. For families, couples, or anyone arriving after a long flight, those first calm moments are priceless.


Comfort, Convenience, and Memories


Cora loved the chance to sip a cool drink and watch the Riviera Maya roll by, while Lulu leaned into the fun of the limo itself — laughter, selfies, and a ride that felt like a celebration. The real secret? Transfers like these aren’t just about luxury — they become part of your family story. A limo ride is the kind of memory kids (and even grown-ups) treasure for years. We think about our own family, and even though our kids are grown now, they still talk about the one time we rented a limo as a highlight of their childhood. Sometimes, those little extras make the biggest marks.


Seamless Starts with Latitude & Leisure

๏ปฟ

At Latitude & Leisure, we arrange rides that fit your group size and style, whether that’s a sleek SUV, a family van, or yes, even a limo. Because your vacation shouldn’t start with stress — it should start with joy.


โœจ For Cora and Lulu, the limo wasn’t just a ride — it was a reminder that little upgrades can create lifelong memories. Why wait until you arrive at the resort to start relaxing (and reminiscing)?

Cora & Lulu’s Quick Tips for Smooth Transfers


  • Pre-book with your travel advisor to avoid inflated rates on arrival.
  • Ask about amenities: some vehicles include snacks, drinks, or Wi-Fi.
  • Double-check your pickup location — many airports have multiple exit points.
  • Traveling with kids? Request car seats in advance.
  • Keep your driver’s info handy for easy coordination on arrival.
