Decided on Cancun

[Texan in Mexico]

Good morning Erick,

The downtown area is where City Hall and the locals live.

The hotel zone is where the hotels, nightclubs and most touristy places are located.

As for hotels there is such a wide variety from The Ritz Carlton and Intercontinental at 300$ usd + a night to the 5 star RUI at 180$ usd and more economical places can be found for around 90$ usd on the net.

Eating - I wish there was a Cheesecake Factory but no luck yet!

I highly recommend Cambalache (Argentinian Steakhouse) and for your taco stands you need to head to downtown and eat at La Placita or maybe Los Primos if you are more adventurous (try a Michelada).

LCDH is well worth the trip and Cohiba Atmosphere is temporarily closed and scheduled to re-open in August.

Best of luck and safe travels!

Respectfully,

Travis

It must've been another one of those kind of places I saw the sign for. The last thing I want to eat in Mexico is US chain food

I hear ya! Mayan is not one of my favorite Mexican region's, but bring it on when I am there. Sol beer's and "Mezcal right from the bottle" as Sammy sings.

If you can go to Isla Mujeres, the Naval PX has Don Julio for $15 USD for instance. Tequila is for sure cheaper in Mexico.
