We stayed at the Royal Solaris Resort in Cancun last week and it was beautiful. To keep track of all the guests at this all-inclusive resort they give you a color coded bracelet when you check in. The bracelets are the same ones they used to use in hospitals and they are not well suited to the festive vacation atmosphere of the resort.
There is a nice opportunity for someone to start making improved resort bracelets. You could set up a factory in Mexico. I estimate that just the resorts on the Mayan Riviera use nearly a million bracelets a year. Don’t use vinyl or pvc use a nice molded polycarbonate that looks and feels luxurious.
Interestingly the bracelets that they used at the Solaris are manufactured by Precision Dynamics in San Fernando, California. They are clearly focused on the security issues not the appearance.
Lots more photos and stories from Cancun in the days ahead.
