As a purpose built luxury resort, Cancun is all about hotels and there are plenty to choose from. The best are all situated on Isla Cancun, in the Zona Hotelera, although there are some cheaper places to stay on the mainland.
A great choice for families or couples looking for a bit of privacy, and avoiding the high rise style hotels are the 4* Villas Tacul, which form one of Cancun's smaller hotels, and offer great facilities, as well as being superb value for money.
For visitors looking for the ultimate in luxury accommodation, where every facility is on hand, and the service levels are truly second to none, the 5* Westin Regina Resort is amongst the very best in Cancun, and is located on its own stretch of beach, yet within walking distance of the nightlife.
