You don't need to make a schedule hour-by-hour of your activities. You just need to know the days you will spend at the destination (you can even open a possibility for extra days), which will help you make the most of your stay. Leaving less to chance means less unexpected expenses; Last minute flights and accommodation are often much more expensive.

Research about your destination and look for the best time to visit; then travel just before or after these dates. This is called 'shoulder season,' You will still have a great trip, as hotels and airlines lower their prices to attract guests this season. Helping you, the last week of May, or the second week of August are considered low season in Cancun. If you love summer, the months of August or September in Cabo are ideal; in November, it is another option when the weather is cooler.
