Note

Effective immediately, hotels in Mexico will gradually be introducing an "Eco-Tax".
Therefore, every user of a hotel room in Mexico is obliged to pay a local tax to the state, similar to a tourist tax, payable in cash at the hotel.
**************************************
A tourism tax came into force on April 1, 2021, and currently amounts to a one-time fee of 224 Mexican Pesos or approx. 18 US Dollars per person, regardless of the planned stay in the country.
********************************
Features the Winnow system for reducing food waste, 3R devices for waste management in 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 transferred to camps set up for this activity.
We maintain mangrove areas within 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 Bejil-Ha Riviera Maya cooperative, originally founded by seven passionate locals dedicated to preserving more than 50 cenotes in the region and protecting the native flora and fauna of the Yucatán Peninsula. This initiative benefits over 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 gastronomic 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. In this case, 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 seaweed and algae may occur due to wind, temperature, and currents. In particular, increased brown algae in the Caribbean is often observed during this period. This affects the beach and the sea. Hotel management and local authorities are of course making efforts to clean affected beach sections in cooperation with local administrations. However, this requires the use of appropriate equipment, which may cause a slight noise.
