**************************************
Hotels in Mexico will be introducing an "Eco-Tax" from now on. This requires every user of a hotel room in Mexico to pay a local tax to the state at the hotel in cash.
**************************************
As of April 1, 2021, a tourism tax has been implemented 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 Policy

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 information

During stays between April and December, increased occurrences of seaweed and algae may occur due to wind, temperature, and currents. In particular, an increased presence of brown algae in the Caribbean is often observed. This affects the beach and the sea. Hotel management and local authorities are naturally working to clean affected beach sections in cooperation with the municipalities. However, this requires the use of appropriate equipment, which can cause some noise.
