Note

Facilities of all 4 hotels in the complex can be used (except buffet restaurants).
Wearing a bracelet is necessary to use the All-Inclusive services.
From now on, hotels in Mexico will be gradually introducing an "Eco-Tax".
This means that every hotel room user in Mexico is obliged to pay a fee to the state locally at the hotel, similar to a visitor's tax.
**************************************
As of April 1, 2021, a tourism tax was introduced and currently amounts to a one-time payment of 224 Mexican Pesos or approximately 11 US Dollars per person, regardless of the planned duration of stay in the country.
The tax can be paid electronically before departure via the following link: http://www.visitax.gob.mx/sitio/
Alternatively, the tax can be paid in cash upon arrival at the airport. It is advisable to carry the exact amount in Mexican Pesos or US Dollars.

No Smoking

Smoking is prohibited in all public places in Mexico. This also applies to public transport, beaches, parks, hotels, and restaurants. Violations can be punished with fines or imprisonment.

Seasonal Note

During stays between April and December, increased occurrences of seaweed and algae may occur due to wind, temperature, and currents. In particular, brown algae are often found in the Caribbean during this period. This affects the beach and the sea. The hotel management and local authorities are of course endeavoring to clean affected beach sections in cooperation with the municipal administrations. However, this requires the use of appropriate equipment, which emits a slight noise.
