TRAVEL INSURANCE
We will offer travel protection during the booking process. Rates will vary per person depending on your age, state, total value of your trip, and if you elect for the Cancel for Any Reason benefit. The average cost of your travel protection is about 6-10% of the total trip cost so it's a great investment!
FLIGHTS
Closest airport to the resort is CANCUN International Airport (CUN).
We recommend booking your flights as early as you can. You may book it via your favorite airline or allow us to do so for a small convenience fee of $49 per route. Consider using miles or credit card points if you have them.
If you would like to book your flight + hotel as a package this can be arranged as well. In the reservation form mark "YES" to the flight question and you will be contacted to verify airline preferences for published rates. There is no guarantee that we have better flight prices than what you may find on your own and we cannot guarantee we are contracted with every airline. There may be instances when we cannot book your air if we do not have a contract with a specific airline, such as Spirit Airlines. We are not able to use credit card points or miles towards your flight.
