Atelier Playa Mujeres has regained its collective right mind and restored the ability for non-members to book Inspira suites with all perks and privileges. Hopefully this policy will remain in effect.
There will be a new “attraction within an attraction” at Chichen Itza starting next year. The National Institute of Anthropology and History has announced that Chichen Viejo, or “old Chichen” is a “Mayan palace within the middle of the original flora” with scenes depicting the creation of the cosmos; reportedly, the new site is a place where priests performed rituals related to fertility and “divine needs”.
Planet Hollywood Cancun has finally opened, but it looks like it’s off to a slow start. There appears to be only one a la carte open (probably due to low occupancy), in-room liquor dispensers are empty, beers don’t appear to be in the mini-fridges yet (see video below), while I read that the spa, convention center, and one a la carte restaurant are still being finished.
Rumor has it that there will be a $10 USD international tourist tax to be collected at the Cancun airport–whether it will be upon arrival or departure is still in question. This tax is supposed to cover the use of “public domain assets”.
For those of you following/interested in the construction of the newest Riu resort in Cancun, news has it that it has been indefinitely halted.
For those of you familiar with the newest Royalton resort, Royalton Suites Cancun which is located in the Hotel Zone, please be aware that this resort will be changing to adults-only when it reopens on Oct. 29, 2020. Its new name will be Royalton CHIC Suites Cancun Resort and Spa.
I recently returned from my Cancun trip and thought it might be informative to those thinking of traveling to Mexico to know what the experience was like. This particular blog post will cover the air travel part of the trip.
