The seemingly innocent picturesquevacationphotos weren’t to everyone’s liking, as an Instagram user argued: “People can’t afford to feed their families but noted…”
A person commented: “No money for baseball but money for this. Lololol clown show.”
Someone else penned: “Look what grifting can get you!”
Another user wrote: “Was this a GoFundMe trip also?”
Alyssa stayed at the Nobu Los Cabos Residences, where one night during the weekend costs about $970
“People work hard and hopefully they get to have fun for their own hard work what’s wrong with that?
“Stay off social media you rude individuals with your nasty remarks go get pissed off somewhere else thank you.”
As per the Nobu Los Cabos Residenceswebsite, one night at the accommodation during the weekend costs about $970.
Meanwhile, Nobu restaurants typically serve pricey meals. TheLos Cabos menuindicates that fish and chips costs $58, a plate of brussel sprouts sells for $27, and two pieces of tuna nigiri are priced at $19.
People’s outrage at Alyssa’s latest lavish trip comes as she was caught in a fundraising scandal earlier this year, asking people to donate to her 12-year-old son’s baseball team trip to Cooperstown,New York, from California.
Back in January, the #MeToo movement activist took to herXpage (formerly known as Twitter) to announce: “My son’s baseball team is raising money for their Cooperstown trip.
“Any amount would be so greatly appreciated. You can read more about the team and make a donation here.”
“We hope you will make a donation to keep our team competitive,” the fundraiser’s description read. “Your donation will go to travel costs, uniforms, and dues for families.”
Her donation plea ignited an avalanche of negative reactions, with many people accusing the actress of being “out of touch.”

The growing backlash prompted the mom-of-two to defend her position, writing onX: “I’m getting media inquiries about whether I have financially contributed to my son’s baseball team.
“I’ve paid for uniforms for the entire team and coaches, thrown bday parties, and sponsored any kid who can’t afford monthly dues.
“The kids also do fundraising themselves—car washes, movie nights, and many other fun things!
“Thank you to all who have contributed to the gofundme!
“You’ve made things easier for these boys and their families.”
But things only took a turn for the worse a month later whenAlyssa posed with her son at the stellar Super Bowl LVIII at Allegiant Stadium.
Tickets for the event can cost anywhere between $950 and $9,500. Consequently, the internet raised an eyebrow when the UNICEF award winner attended America’s most awaited sporting event of the year at the heels of asking the public for funds.
“How can he get to the game and you request money to take his team to Cooperstown? How out of touch are you,” one Instagrammer asked at the time, while another questioned, “Is this why you created the Go Fund Me? To get you and your kid to theSuper Bowl?”
Bored Pandahas contacted Alyssa’s representatives for comment.
