GENERAL TOURIST INFORMATION

 

First,welcome to Cancun! We hope that you will enjoy your stay. If you have any questions please feel free to contact us. you are never under any obligation. We think this basic information will be of use during your visit.

 

THE HOTEL ZONE

Since the vast majority of the visitors opt to stay in our hotel zone lets start there. The hotel zone is about 28 kilometers in length. It is sort of shaped like the letter "U" with the lagoon being inside. Our international airport is located about 4 kilometers from the southern end of the hotel zone at kilometer 28. There is only one road that runs through the entire hotel zone named:Kukulcan Blvd. Entering near the airport entrance the first major site you will see on your right hand side is the water park called:Wet N' Wild. The first hotel will be the Club Med at Kilometer 22. From Kilometer 22 to Km.9 the beaches face the Caribbean Sea where there is more wave action. On the other side will be the lagoon. From kilometer 8 to Zero(0) the beaches face the calm waters of the Bay of Isla Mujeres. Downtown or Centro Cancun will start at Kilometer Zero(0). Here Kukulcan Blvd ends and becomes Avenue Coba. You might want to consult a google Earth Map for details.

One of the best values here in Cancun is the public bus service. We now have 3 companies that have standard route numbers. The current one way bus fare within the hotel zone to downtown is $8.5-Pesos per person each way. The R-1 and R-2 Buses run 24/7. Downtown you will find a large Walmart(take R-2 bus) that is open 24/7. Next to the Walmart is a Sam's Club that accepts U.S. membership Cards.

 

HOTEL ZONE CHURCH SERVICES

St. Michael and All Angels Anglican(Episcopal) Church has held a 10.00-AM service in English at the Marriott Casa Magna(Kukulcan Blvd. at Kilometer 15) since 1991 On Sunday,April 8th on the front lawn of the hotel will be a free Easter Egg Hunt for all children ages:infants to 12 years of age. All are welcome to attend.

Located at Kilometer 3.5 on Kukulcan Blvd. is the Roman Catholic Church which conducts a weekly Sunday Mass in English at 9.00-AM

 

DOWNTOWN/CENTRO CANCUN

Our downtown starts at Kilometer Zero and the first street is Bonapak Avenue. At this point The hotel zone's Kukulcan Blvd becomes Avenue Coba. About 95% of we locals live,shop and entertain here since the cost of living is much less than in the hotel zone. Among the large supermarkets are:Walmart(open 24/7),Sam's Club,Costco,Comerical Mexicana and Cheduri. There is a large and modern plaza called Plaza las America which is located on Tulum Avenue. From the hotel zone take the R-27 Bus. You might want to visit 2 of Cancun's oldest public markets/mercados. They are Market 28 for arts and crafts and good restaurants and Market 23 for spices,etc. Both markets are open daily from about 8:00-AM to 6:00-PM.

We feel that from long personal experience that both the hotel zone and downtown Cancun are safe places to visit as long as you keep to normal tourist hours. Would give the same advice if you were visiting:new york,London,Paris or Rome.

 

CHURCH SERVICE DOWNTOWN IN ENGLISH

Located at their new site is the COMMUNITY OF FAITH:THE CANCUN CHRISTIAN FELLOWSIP. It is located at Plaza Tokal in Room 102. This is on Yaxchilian Avenue between Costco and a mini supermarket called Oxxo. Their service in English starts promptly each sunday at 10:00-AM
