We show you hotels with “all-inclusive” plans and apartments for cheap rent for a vacation in Cancun
Have you ever said no to Cancun because it is too expensive? This time we set out to show that, although it is an international destination with an immense tourist offer, not everything here is luxury and it is possible to find affordable options adaptable to your plans and preferences.
We are looking for eight affordable accommodations in Cancun , which have a good balance between price and services. That is, we are not looking for the cheapest in the city, but some of the places that offer you more for less money. All have implemented changes to offer greater security after the Covid-19 contingency
We take into account only prices for private rooms and all include taxes; however, there is an extra tax of 26 pesos at the destination for the new biosecurity measures. The rates we are looking for are for the month of October, which is low season.
