Frequently Asked Questions
Do We need passports?
Please keep in mind that everyone, including children and infants, must have a valid passport to travel to Mexico.
A passport card is not valid for international air travel. A passport book is mandatory.
It is recommended to renew passports with less than 6 months of validity from your return date. While Mexico is not strict on the 6 month requirement, it is the ticket agent at the airport that will ultimately decide if you will be allowed to board the flight. Airline employees are often trained to follow the 6 month requirement regardless of country requirements. Are you willing to risk it? Our advice, play it safe.
Passport renewal times are approximately 12 weeks. Minor children need to apply in person with both parents present.
Passport and visa information may be obtained by contacting the U.S. State Department at
(202) 647-5225 or by visiting https://travel.state.gov/content/travel/en/international-travel.html or www.exploreyourworldvacations.com/resources.html
It is the passenger's responsibility to have proper documentation for international travel.

What happens if I need to cancel my trip?
The resort's penalties are based on when you cancel your trip. Cancellations or reductions made after final payment may be non-refundable.
Travel insurance is highly recommended.
The travel insurance premium is non-refundable.
If you have paid for travel insurance, you may consult with the insurance provider to see if the non-refundable $250 per person deposit may be filed as a claim.

Are airport transfers included?
Yes, round-trip airport transfers are included in your package. We must have your flight information within 3 weeks of your departure date. If we do not receive your flight details within 3 weeks of your trip, this will result in your cancellation of your ground transportation. You will not be refunded any costs for transportation. It will be up to you to find transportation to and from the resort if you do not provide the flight details needed for us to arrange transportation.
Make sure you reconfirm your return transfer with the transportation company 48 hours prior to departure. If you are not waiting in the lobby at your assigned pick-up time you will be considered a no-show and will need to have the resort call a taxi at your own expense. Don't miss your transfer!

Is tipping required?
No, it is not required but is a gesture of appreciation to the hard working staff who make dollars per day, not per hour, to serve you.
Aren't gratuities included? Sort of. The staff at all-inclusive resorts receive a monthly bonus based on occupancy. This amount is divided up among everyone from kitchen staff to groundskeepers.
Please consider tipping your transfer driver $10 - $20 per couple. They do not work for the all-inclusive resorts and reply on gratuities. It is customary to tip the spa staff 10% - 18% of the cost of your service.
It is appropriate and much appreciated to tip the resort bellman, housekeepers, restaurant waitstaff, pool servers, and bartenders. While a few dollars may not mean much to you, it greatly improves the quality of life for the individuals who work at the resorts, often 6 or 7 days a week.
Bring plenty of small bills or have the front desk make change for you. Dollars are welcomed but pesos are easier for the staff to use since many do not have bank accounts required to exchange currency. ATM's in the lobby often dispense pesos should you need more cash.
