Cancun Holidays
Cancun holidays offer as much Caribbean as any of the islands. With fourteen miles of prime Mexican coastline, Cancun has plenty of white beaches.
But Cancun is also a party city. In fact it's a resort that crosses Vegas with Barbados. However, travellers expecting quiet relaxation can enjoy a time in Cancun too. Though the nightlife is perhaps too noisy for a truly relaxed experience, Cancun’s Caribbean beachlife suits everyone.
Additionally, many Mayan ruins are a coach-ride away from Cancun. This contributes to the greater depth of the Cancun holidays experience. In short, Cancun has it all. Nightclubs and casinos with sun-loungers, swims with dolphins, jet skiing, reef snorkelling and much more besides.
Luxury Holidays to Cancun
Luxury Cancun holidays aren’t complete without some Mayan culture. Although, of course, time on the beach is essential and time dancing in the clubs is definitely well spent. Chichen Itza is about two hours from Cancun. This archaeological site is often counted among the ‘new seven wonders of the world’. Another important site is Tulum, two hours south from Cancun. Unsurprisingly, many of our resorts are based on the coastal area of the Riveria Maya.
In Cancun, history and tropical harmony collide with Mayan ruins. All against the backdrop of pristine beaches and a national park. There are countless pyramids and ruins hidden all around this part of Mexico. This is the reason why Cancun holidays have a sense of mystery perhaps missing from the islands of the Caribbean.
Once you’ve seen the sun go down in this setting, it’s time to join the party. The hotel zone is Cancun’s answer to the Las Vegas strip. A small slither of land packed with hi-rise hotel buildings, and home to several extravagant shows and host to world-class performers and DJs.
Cancun Weather
Cancun is the place to go if you are looking for sunny days and beach time. With warm temperatures all year round - an average of 27 °C - there is not a bad time for a Cancun holiday. However, if you wan to avoid excessive heat, visit Cancun between December and April.
