Those interested in the brand new Riu Palace Kukulkan in Cancun’s Hotel Zone will be happy to know you can book a room for as low as $145 p/person p/night USD for fall/winter travel (I believe you have to book a minimum of three nights).  I’ve already booked a new room category for March 2023, Jr. Suite Ocean View Elite Club, for my extended Quintana Roo spring vacay and was able to save an additional $200 USD by booking via the loyalty membership Riu Class on the resort’s website.  It is free to sign up!  You can choose how to pay if you book via the resort’s website–pay at the time of booking, pay at the hotel, etc.
