Cancún Travel Forum

Hello everyone,

Me and my girlfriend (25 and 22) are going to Cancun for a week or two this towards the end of April. We really want to enjoy the place but we're on a tight budget. So can anyone help us with some questions:

1. do you know of any place to rent for a couple on a weekly basis, preferably with a pool and beach or near beach access? doesn't need to be posh or anything, would be great if there's a/c and a kitchen and a shower. How much do you think would it cost?

2. can we rent a scooter so we can roam around and explore the sights freely? how much?

3. what places do we need to see at Cancun or at it's adjacent places?

4. any other tips for first timers?

Thanks in advance for your responses!

2. Yes, expect to pay $10-20/day.
3. Xcaret, Tulum, Coba, Chichen Itza.
4. There is convenient public transport between Cancun-Tulum/Xcaret/Chichen Itza.

Thanks for the tips! Very helpful..too bad I'm going to have to cancel the trip. Could you believe I was denied a transit visa through the US?! I'm not even going to step out of the airport! And the tickets I've got are non refundable..so frustrating...oh well...
