Hotelhinweis

Hotel only bookable for guests aged 18 and over!
**************************************
Effective immediately, hotels in Mexico will gradually introduce an "Eco-Tax".
As a result, every guest staying in a hotel room in Mexico is required to pay a local state tax in cash at the hotel.
**************************************

Zusatzhinweis

As of April 1, 2021, a tourism tax was implemented, currently amounting to a one-time fee of 224 Mexican Pesos or approx. 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 also be paid in cash upon arrival at the airport. It is recommended to carry the exact amount in Mexican Pesos or US Dollars.

Smoking Ban

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

Seasonal information

During stays between April and December, there may be an increased occurrence of seaweed and algae due to wind, temperature, and currents. In particular, brown algae often appears in the Caribbean during this time. This can impact the beach and the sea. The hotel management and local authorities naturally strive to clean affected beach sections in cooperation with municipal administrations. However, the use of appropriate equipment is necessary for this, which may cause a slight level of noise.
