****************************************
Hotels in Mexico are gradually introducing an "Eco-Tax".
This requires every user of a hotel room in Mexico to pay a state levy in cash at the hotel, similar to a tourist tax.
****************************************
As of April 1, 2021, a tourism tax was enacted 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.
*****************************************
Features the Winnow system to reduce food waste, 3R equipment for
waste management in the hotels, and installed drinking water fountains.
We have two coral nurseries in front of the complex where we are working with our
scientific team to restore coral reefs.
Together with the community where the Paraíso complex is located, we monitor the
hotel beaches for turtle nests, which are then relocated to camps set up for this
activity.
We maintain mangrove areas in our Paraíso complex, which help protect our coasts
and hotels from storms and hurricanes.
Community Tourism Project in the Riviera Maya: The project takes place in the Caribbean
community of Chemuyil in Quintana Roo. It is carried out by the cooperative Bejil-Ha Riviera Maya,
originally founded by seven passionate locals dedicated to the conservation of over 50 cenotes in the region, as well as the protection of the native flora and fauna of the Yucatan Peninsula. This initiative benefits more than 30
local families and promotes awareness and protection of the area. It offers
exclusive itineraries and invites guests to explore the community and its natural surroundings with
experienced local guides. Excursions include bike tours, visits to cenotes, and a local culinary experience.
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.
In the "Young Stars" catalog 2025/26 on page 213.

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

When staying between April and December, increased seaweed and algae may occur due to wind, temperature, and currents. In particular, an increased amount of brown algae is often observed in the Caribbean during this period. This affects the beach and the sea. Hotel management and local authorities are making efforts to clean affected beach sections in cooperation with local governments. However, this requires the use of special equipment, which may cause some noise.
