About our Bacon Score methodology
YouTube Video Descriptionโ†“

The moment our Inspirato trip planner told us about the Marietas Islands, we felt like we had to go. It was right up our alley and an adventure the whole family could enjoy. There's a hidden beach in the middle of the island and photos online looked incredible! Unfortunately, we read some reviews that made us a bit nervous. The word on the street was that the entrance was over-crowded and only a limited number of people were allowed to get in a day. Boats lined up and sometimes people weren't able to make it through at all. I think that's the last time we're going to look up reviews before an excursion. The best things in life area unexpected. The Marietas Islands turned out to be incredible. We just needed to remember Inspirato and our destination planners have never let us down. If you ask us, the Marietas Islands is a must-do.
