Traveling with a wheelchair Posted: Sun November 8, 2009 12:52 AM UTC
I would like suggestions for tours, (waterpark info), or any information that you think would be helpful to me to get the most out of Cancun. I use a travel scooter that breaks down and can be put on shuttles or taxis and I can walk short distances or my husband can carry me up a few steps. I can swim.
Also most helpful would be things that I CANNOT do or places that I should avoid.

Dirving Merdia Cancun area. Posted: Tue October 27, 2009 06:06 AM UTC
Hi,
Has anyone any experience driving in the Merida/Cancun area using a TomTom for navigation. Understand the TomTom maps are somewhat sketchy in some parts of Mexico. Can anyone also recommend a reliable map of the area and where to obtain.
Any other tips re driving would be greatly appreciated. We are considering renting a car from "Cancun Car rental".

Age limits? Posted: Mon October 12, 2009 02:57 AM UTC
Is Coco Bongo a nightclub for adults only? I saw there are several shows. I am going to be coming to Canun in December with my children, ages 15 and 12. Would this be an appropriate place to visit with them? Thank you.

Umm, Midget Wrestling??? Posted: Fri October 9, 2009 05:54 PM UTC
Hi, im sure this a highly irregular question to ask but please bear with me..
A large party are about to descend on Cancun to attend a wedding there, and i have been reluctantly put in charge of organising the inevitable stag do.
The Groom is adamant that it be as wacky and 'far out' as possible, and i have heard of a mexican wrestling league in which the protaganists are 'little people' (trying to make this as politically correct as i can)!
I have also heard that said league is popular among the locals and highly entertaining..In short (pardon), I could'nt think of a better way to spend an alcohol induced evening!!
Any info would be really appreciated, or indeed any other suggestions you may have on how to entertain 25 inebriated Welshmen!! Cheers..

Need info. regarding Hotel Status - Posted: Sun August 16, 2009 06:45 PM UTC
It has been many years, since we have been back to Cancun. In the late 90's and early 2000's we stayed at a hotel called the " Carribean Village". Wonderful in all aspects. We are trying to plan a trip in November 09, and would very much like to stay there again. I do understand that the hotel had changed names(Occidental Grand/Occidental Carribean Village) and perhaps went thru a renovation.
We have contacted our local travel agencies, and they cannot offer any info. as to if this particular property has even reopend. Any current ionformation, as to status and current hotel name would be greatly appreciated.
Tahnks, V65

Cancun/Riviera Maya in Jan/Febr - weather, beaches, pools etc Posted: Fri July 31, 2009 07:43 PM UTC
Hi!
I visited Playa del Carmen years ago with a friend, but am now going with my family - husband and kids 7 and 3 years old (for about 12 nights). The children will of course want to spend a lot of the time in the pools/on the beach. My husband and I like quite nice resorts (4/5 stars) - where there are several pools and a choice of restaurants, good service. Hope to get some input on the following:
WEATHER: Will it be warm enough end Jan/beg Febr for the kids to be able to swim a lot without freezing? Dubai in the same time period in 2008 was NOT, so we promised them... Is the weather quite stable, I can take a day or two of not-so-good if the rest of the days are sunny and warm. I read about cold/chilly pools, do they not have heated pools?
BEACHES: We are considering the Ritz Carlton in Cancun, but heard that the beach in Cancun is in very bad condition/almost gone. True or has it been "rebuilt"? Are the beaches along Riviera Maya (for instance Playa del Carmen area) less damaged/better?
RESORTS: Any comments on the Ritz Carlton, we were planning on taking an Ocean View Suite? Or other suggestions in that price-range/level (the suite is about $ 700/night, $ 1050 for Club Level which includes some lighter meals? Not sure if we should go for an all inclusive instead. Having small children we tend to eat most meals on the resorts we stay at, going out only for the occasional meal or when going on excursions.
Thank you very much in advance for any help!

Chitchen Itza and Blue Cenote Posted: Wed July 15, 2009 11:32 AM UTC
Hi
Can't seem to find any info on the public bus to Chitchen Itza.
I would happily do a tour, but want to stop off at Blue Cenote and most non private tours do not do this.
I have been told to just go myself by public transport, but no idea of bust times/frequency etc.
Any help much appreciated as always

Cancun or Playa Del Carmen Posted: Sun July 5, 2009 01:18 AM UTC
We are planning a trip to Cancun the week before Christmas for 7 days and be back by Christmas Eve. We are thinking about staying either at the Grand Caribe Resort & Spa (Blvd 11.5KM), or Barcelo Tucancun Beach in Cancun. Maybe even Gran Porto Real at PDC. Any advise from all your experience travellers? Is there any special activities going on during that time of the year?

Anyone ever stayed at the Royal Sunset Resort in Cancun? Posted: Sun May 17, 2009 10:02 PM UTC
I was just there in December and I must say it's probably one of the best resorts i ever stayed at. It's top notch. My friend stayed at another resort the last time she went, which was across the water from the Royal Sunset and she said it wasn't nearly as nice as this one.
