What’s the best area of the Riviera Maya for me to stay?

Bebe asked:


Hi guys. I am planning a future trip to Mexico. I live in Philadelphia. It will be me, my husband & 3 year old son. We are in our 20’s. I can’t spend alot of money, but like a regular trip on a budget is fine. I decided I would like to go to the Riviera Maya area of Mexico, but I don’t want Cancun. I want to stay somewhere that tourists are welcome, but I dont want to be around alot of tourists. I want to see the non-tourist stuff & get a real feeling of the culture & area. I speak a good amount of spanish & my husband is fluent (were puerto rican), so thats not a problem. I want to go somewhere without a ton of American chain restaraunts & hotels, but I still need a few convieninces. I want a nice beach close by. & I want to see all the Mayan ruins. I dont want a huge party place, but a few local bar/grill type places would be nice. What are do you think is best for me?? Please help. Thanks
What about Tulum or Cozumel? Anything else…
Well Ive been to Tijuana & never had any problems..
