Travel Note

Mexican Currency

Mexican Pesos is the currency and it is about $1 USD to $18 Pesos. But this conversion may vary depending on what establishments you will patron. It is not regulated. It is suggested to change your money before leaving the states and carry smaller pesos though out the stay. This can be done at the airport (US/Mexico) or your bank for free. On the resorts, no cash is exchanged due to it being all inclusive. However, please tip your waitstaff. Locals appreciate and welcome tips. ATM’s available on property and around town but the fee is ridiculous. Try to change money before arriving. If you happen to need more there are exchange houses in town to change out your money. Debit cards and credit cards are a great option and will incur a small conversion fee of $1-3 per transaction. Must have passports to change money in Mexico.

Depending on which part of the hotel zone you want to go to, it is a flat fee. They do take USD but be ware of the difference in conversion rates. Best to pay in pesos.
