Vacations don’t come low cost nowadays. Especially popular tourist hubs in Mexico.
Lately, family hot spots around our southern neighbor have been transformed into chi-chi luxury resorts, making it increasingly difficult to enjoy Mexico on a budget.
Thankfully, with a little bit savvy, you possibly can still carve out an incredible vacation in, say, Cozumel or Cabo, without breaking the bank.
Ahead are family-friendly escapes with starting rates hovering from just around $100 to $300 an evening.
Sunny outlook
Price: From $190 per night
Resort: Sunscape Sabor Cozumel Resort & Spa
A part of World of Hyatt, this all-inclusive in Cozumel prides itself on its “Unlimited-Fun” offerings, including limitless entertainment and all you possibly can eat and drink.
Just BYO-“merry” and also you’re good to go on this island within the Caribbean Sea, opposite Playa del Carmen.
Activities run the gamut from on-site scuba diving lessons and kayaking, or beach volleyball to live musical performances, or the spa (perhaps a couples’ massage while kiddos are on the Explorer’s
Club For Kids or the Core Zone Teens Club?).
House party
Resort: Hacienda Del Mar Los Cabos Resort
Price: From $300 per night
How does perching yourself on 11 acres in Los Cabos along the Sea of Cortez at a Nineteenth-century Haci-
enda-inspired resort sound to you? Throw in five restaurants, bars and swimming pools apiece and
try to be nodding yes to paraíso. All 542 rooms and suites feature private terraces, and there’s a fitness center, a children’s club and a spa to maintain all of the young and young-at-heart little bears comfortable.
To get off the property for a bit, link up with their partner Cabo Adventures to swim with the dolphins, zip-line and more. FYI: One of the best hotel rates at Hacienda Del Mar run from July to September.
Sharing is caring
Resort: Selina Tulum
Price: From $103 per night
Experience bougie Tulum on a budget at this oceanfront retreat. To maintain costs low, there are several varieties of inexpensive digs on offer including the Micro, which sleeps two and shares a rest room with as much as 4 other rooms within the category or a Community Room, which sleeps as much as eight in twin size beds or bunk beds (there’s a female-only option) and includes access to a shared bathroom.
But, you likely won’t be spending much time in whatever room you select with a beach club, a swimming pool, yoga classes and a restaurant and bar on-site. If pedaling your way through town is your thing, $10 gets you a each day bicycle rental. P.S. The property is currently running a 20% off deal for two nights with code: GREEN!
Suite life
Resort: Villa del Palmar Flamingos
Price: From $105 per night
A fantastic destination for teenagers and adults alike, this all-inclusive resort in Riviera Nayarit features all-suite accommodations with kitchens/kitchenettes and a dizzying array of programming. These include fitness classes and cooking classes — but in addition more unexpected offerings like Spanish lessons, survival lessons for kids, kids’ shoreline fishing and adult dance lessons.
Drop little ones off on the Kids’ Club while you’re able to hit the loosen up button at Tatewari Spa or laze over a number of beverages and a tasty meal together with your higher half at one among the dozen-plus eateries and beach bars.
There’s hardly a reason to go away the resort, but when you would like to for a day trip or two, the hotel concierge can arrange something like whale watching or a sailing jaunt. Price noting: Each this property and Villa del Arco, Cabo San Lucas often offer deals like kids staying free, the Spring Fever Sale and the Ultimate Flight + Hotel Package.
Here to remain
Resort: Candlewood Suites Guadalajara Galerías
Price: From $92 per night
In the event you’re antsing for a work-cation or prolonged sabbatical in Mexico this summer, set your sights on this steal. It’s a part of the Plaza Grüncom Clouthier in Zapopan.

During your stay, absorb nature at nearby spots like Parque Mirador Independencia, Bosque Colomos, and Lake Chapala, or catch cultural attractions just like the Guadalajara Cathedral, Museo Regional de Guadalajara and Guachimontones Pyramids and Ruins of Teuchitlan (most of that are free entry). Dancing is at Plaza de Armas, which has free performances most evenings at 6:30 p.m. Situated in nearby Guadalajara, the hometown of mariachi, it’s actually a sight to behold.
