No matter how many social media posts you read, you will find completely different experiences for the same locations.
You cannot expect posts from complete strangers to match your expectations.
You have to watch the videos, view the photos and read the reviews, then try to formulate your own opinion as to whether or not it will match your expectations.
Depending on your own budget and what is important to you, it could be vastly different from what you are expecting.
The high season is packed and choices may book up fast.
Low season is it easy to stop by the resorts in person, to see if it really where you want to stay.
This method means there are no ugly discoveries and disappointments.
Hotels are more than willing to let you view their rooms before payment.
It will ensure you get exactly what you are paying for.

Outside of trusting social media, it is best to read as many different reviews as you can.
