Travel Tips 1 – Make hotel reservations early. Some hotels stop taking online reservations a couple days ahead of time.
Unlike other travel websites, we are willing to give you direct links to the hotel websites. We want you to book with our links right below each listing (so we don't have to fill this space with flashing buttons) but we want you to have the best rate and information. One of us will have the best rates & availability.
2 – After making a reservation, you will receive a confirmation email. Print this email to take with you. Keep it and the original email until after you are billed correctly.
3- The earlier you check-in, the more likely you will get the type of room you requested or better.
4 - Hotel rates can vary wildly by season. Depending on the time of year and seasonal events, you may find rates much different than our cost codes. We always offer any available discount rates for AAA and AARP, corporate and govt employees, and groups.

Xcaret
About 45 miles south. Travel to the park takes about an hour.
Buses depart daily from the XCaret terminal at 9 and 10am. Once a peaceful cove, it has been transformed into a waterside park with an ecological theme. It also has a scenic outlook point. Paths lead from there to the beaches, the cove, and the dolphin swimming area. Other paths lead to the lagoon and the underground river that is one of the parks greatest attractions. At night there is a festive air that begins with a light and sound tour in the caves. This is followed by the recreation of a Mayan ceremony and a folk ballet presented in the amphitheater.
