Notice

Effective immediately, hotels in Mexico will gradually introduce an "Eco-Tax".
Each hotel room user in Mexico is obliged to pay a state levy locally at the hotel in cash, similar to a tourist tax.
**************************************
A tourism tax came into effect on April 1, 2021, and currently amounts to a one-time payment of 224 Mexican Pesos or approximately 18 US Dollars per person, regardless of the planned stay.
********************************
Features the Winnow system to reduce food waste, 3R devices for waste management in hotels, and installed drinking water fountains.
We have two coral nurseries in front of the complex where we work with our scientific team to restore coral reefs.
Together with the community where the Paraíso complex is located, we monitor the hotel beaches for turtle nests, which are then relocated to camps set up for this activity.
We maintain mangrove areas within our Paraíso complex, which help protect our coasts and hotels from storms and hurricanes.
Community Tourism Project in the Riviera Maya: The project takes place in the Caribbean community of Chemuyil in Quintana Roo. It is carried out by the cooperative Bejil-Ha Riviera Maya, originally founded by seven passionate locals dedicated to preserving over 50 cenotes in the region and protecting the native flora and fauna of the Yucatán Peninsula. This initiative benefits over 30 local families and promotes awareness and conservation of the area. It offers exclusive itineraries and invites guests to explore the community and its natural surroundings with experienced local guides. Excursions include bike tours, cenote visits, and a local culinary experience.
The tax can be paid electronically before departure via the following link: http://www.visitax.gob.mx/sitio/
Alternatively, the tax can be paid in cash upon arrival at the airport. It is advisable to carry the exact amount in Mexican Pesos or US Dollars.

No smoking

Smoking is prohibited in all public places in Mexico. This also applies to public transportation, beaches, parks, hotels, and restaurants. Violations can be punished with fines or imprisonment.

Seasonal information

********************
During stays between April and December, increased occurrences of seaweed and algae may be observed due to wind, temperature, and currents. In particular, an increased presence of brown algae is often noted in the Caribbean during this period, affecting the beach and sea. Hotel management and local authorities are, of course, making efforts to clean affected beach sections in cooperation with local administrations. This requires the use of appropriate equipment, which may generate some noise.
