FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS (FAQ) ABOUT THE

I have questions about availability.

How do I know that there is a room available?
As a general rule we have availability at the hotels listed on the Cancunhotel2000 web site as we have an allotment of rooms. In the event there is not availability your credit card will not be charged. You are actually more likely to get a room if you send in your credit card as soon as possible and not let more time pass before your arrival date. No reservation is made without payment in advance. See the section on payments.
If no room is available for your trip dates then we will send you a list of hotels, similar in cost, and accommodations for you to make another selection. We will await your response to make any reservation.

What is the cost of the room for the time period I have selected?
All hotels listed have a table of dates, number of persons, and room prices. Please look at the table and select the type of room you need such as Double, Single, Triple or Quadruple. (Click here to read about Double, Single, Triple and Quadruple rooms.) Then look at the dates you desire to come and select the rate for that time period.

I have questions about the guest rooms.

What is the difference between a Single, Double, Triple and a Quadruple hotel guest room?
A "single room" is a hotel guest room with only one occupant.
A "double room" is a hotel guest room with two occupants.
A "triple room" is a hotel guest room with three occupants.
A "quadruple room" is a hotel guest room with four occupants.

Do children count in the determination of a double, triple or quadruple guest room?
Generally children under 12 do not count as an occupant in a hotel room and are free.
This may change in an All Inclusive property. Also generally two children below twelve are welcome in the same room with two adults. See the details of each specific hotel.

I have questions about the cost.

What is European Plan-Room only?
"European-room only" pricing displays the price of the room for the specified number of people in the room. "European-room only" pricing is not a price per person. If a Double room cost $100, then the cost of the "room only" for two people is $100 plus applicable taxes. If the cost of a triple room is $120 then the cost of the "room only" for three people is $120 plus applicable taxes. (All-Inclusive pricing is always per person, see below.)
Every hotel on the Cancunhotel2000 website has a "European Plan-Room Only" rate box for the different time periods if the "room only" option is available. (Some hotels are "all inclusive" exclusively, while others have "all-inclusive" and "room only" available, and some are "room only.") To determine the price in the "European Plan-Room only" option first look at the date column and find the date of your visit, then view room prices in the columns based on the number of people in the room. Double Room prices are for two people sharing the same room. Single room price is one person in the room. Triple room price is three people sharing the same room. Quadruple room price is four people sharing the same room.

What is All Inclusive Pricing?
All Inclusive pricing is always on a per person basis in rate boxes for each hotel. Each hotel has an all-inclusive rate box for the different time periods if the all-inclusive rate plan is available. (Some hotels are “room only", while others have “room only” and “all inclusive available", while some are exclusively “all-inclusive".)
The standard industry definition of “All Inclusive” means the following items are included in the price quoted:“

• Your guest room in the category selected
• All your food and snacks
• All your drinks; alcoholic and non-alcoholic, Generally National Drinks
• All your tips
• All your taxes
• Non-motorized water sports

Caution: Some websites quote all-inclusive and then when you go to pay add the taxes which in Chetumal are 12%.

I have questions about paying

Must I pay for the entire reservation now?
If the arrival date is more than 30 days in the future then you must pay a deposit (1 night + tax) for "room only” or a 1-night deposit per person for an "all inclusive" reservation. This one night deposit is required for each room you desire to reserve. Then, 30 days before your arrival date we will charge your credit card for the balance owed for your reserved room(s). Reservations must be paid 100% at the time the reservation is made, if the arrival date is less than 30 days in the future.

Must I pay by credit card?
No. We do allow you to make a wire transfer into our U.S. or Mexican bank account. We can also accept a certified check. Send us an email and we will send you instructions on How to wire money for my hotel room reservation.

I have questions about transportation from the airport.

How does one get from the airport to the hotel?
Transfers from the airport in Cancun to the hotel are not included in hotel pricing. The best and most reliable way to get to your hotel from the Cancun airport is to take a taxi. If you need a transfer from the Cancun airport to Chetumal or to the Cancun bus station. Click here for transfer information. The cost to a transfer from the airport to the Cancun bus station is the same as to the Cancun Hotel Zone. If you need to a transfer from Cancun to Chetumal request a quote from Cancun, or your departure point in the area, to your Chetumal hotel.

If I reserve transportation how do I know there is a van available?
We have never had to turn away a transfer for lack of a vehicle. Make your reservation and be assured we will be there for you.
