Cancun has it all! That’s what makes it one of our favorite vacations spots. It’s very easy to get to from any city in the U.S. and, from our experience, very inexpensive for airfare and hotel accommodations. Cancun has everything going for it -- it’s beautiful beaches and there are many different excursions that take you to beautiful eco parks and other historical sights.
The Hotel Zone is sectioned off from the locals, so only the tourists and employees of the Hotel Zone are allowed in this area. You can walk down the street without feeling uneasy, which is not common in a lot of other vacations spots we have visited.
They have several nice shopping malls and a market within the Hotel Zone, and many known American restaurants i.e. Hard Rock, Rain Forest Café, Outback, and Ruth Chris just to mention a few.
Cancun has a great nightlife with lots of dance clubs to dance the night away. Sammy Frog’s is a must visit -- it is lots of fun. They have a limbo contest, which is hysterical to watch.
With the daytime activities and the nightlife that Cancun has to offer, you will never run out of things to do! This is one place that has a little bit for all age groups and is worth the money to visit. I would suggest when choosing your Hotel you select accommodation in the southern end of the Hotel Zone, the beaches in this area seem to be much nicer; however, if you want to be closer to the nightlife, you should plan to stay in the northern end.
