What a racket. Guy at the hotel spikes your drink and rapes, robs you. Then afterwords takes you to a clinic so they can take whatever other money you can get your hands on for the cure.

As dozens more report blackouts at Mexico resorts, country says it will act on tainted alcohol.
Four days before Abbey Conner was found floating face down in a pool at a Mexican resort, Mary Jo Kuhn waded over to a swim-up bar in the same complex.
On her second drink, she blacked out.
Travelers from around the country have called and emailed the Journal Sentinel, describing similar incidents at numerous resorts in Mexico and providing documentation for their stories.
They describe how they got sick and blacked out — many times after just two drinks — while vacationing at the upscale all-inclusive resorts in the region around Cancun, Playa del Carmen and Cozumel, as well as in Cabo San Lucas and Puerto Vallarta.
Some were robbed, sexually assaulted and otherwise seriously injured. Many were hospitalized. Some said they were forced to pay clinics huge sums in cash before getting treatment.
Others can find no apparent motive for why they might have received tainted or “spiked” alcohol.

You go to the tourist Mecca's in Mexico and you take your chances. You're better off visiting some little farm village as long as it's not in a Drug Cartel's territory.
I once spent a great winter vacation in the US Virgin Islands. A hell of a lot nicer than anything in Mexico or for that matter, Hawaii.
