My fiancee and I will be taking a trip this May, and for some complex
reasons relating to our transportation arrangements, we have at most
three places to consider -- Mazatlan and Puerto Vallarta in Mexico,
and Grand Cayman in the West Indies (the latter may or may not be a
possibility).  I would be delighted to hear from anyone who has 
travelled to any of these places, particularly concerning --
 
   1)  Recommended or "must-avoid" hotels, any price category,
   2)  Serenity of the spot, suitability for a good week's rest on 
       the beach after a long cold semester,
   3)  Any comparisons of Mazatlan and Puerto Vallarta (which is
       less overrun by Hawaiian tourist types?).
 
We will be there in an off-peak week (NOT Memorial Day).
 
Thanks in advance.
