And if you're new to Los Cabos, on the Baja Peninsula, then perhaps you don't know that very few of the region's beaches are actually swimmable ( blame strong currents and rough waves). Luckily, Oyster's reporters have tested the waters at more than 400 beachfront hotels throughout Mexico, so we're ready to tell you which ones are the best of the best. Take a look at the top beach hotels in the Yucatan (on the Gulf of Mexico), Riviera Maya (on the Caribbean Sea), and Riviera Nayarit and Baja California Sur (both on the Pacific Coast).  Get Prices This stunning, all- suite luxury property in Puerto Morelos has 103 incredibly spacious rooms with huge balconies or patios.

One great thing about frugal living is that being frugal tends to lower your impact on the environment. In honor of Earth Day, we have collected some money saving tips and articles that are also good for the environment. Ride A Bike Get a bicycle. Goodwill stores often have nice used ones for $10 or so. Make sure it's the right size for you, it's comfortable and you know how everything on it works. Then put reflectors on it, a basket on the front and/or back, get a lightweight lock, and go for it. Optional: light, and rear-view mirror on handlebars. And please always wear bright-colored clothes when riding, or at least tie a bright scarf on the back. Thrifty, green people know how to avoid accidents.

"Not sampling the local bathing culture would be like not trying the local cuisine," says Melisse Gelula, co-founder of Well&Good NYC, an online wellness guide .
