Travel Insurance

**If you have any questions about travel insurance please give Travel Insured a call at 800-243-3174. We (Yellow Umbrella Events) are not a licensed insurance company and can not legally answer any insurance-related questions.**
FYI, not purchasing travel insurance could result in the loss of your travel cost and/or require more money to correct the situation. Without insurance, there may be no way to recoup any losses, costs, or expenses incurred and the price of travel insurance IS NOT included in the price of the room selections and is non-refundable once purchased.
Having travel insurance is definitely important and we recommend it for everyone. We personally buy it for our trips. However, the option to purchase travel insurance is solely up to you and you may purchase it through any insurance company you would like.
This website (Travel Insured) offers a very comprehensive policy called the “Worldwide Trip Protector” plan with optional add-ons like CFAR (Cancel For Any Reason), Optional Bed Rest which helps cover onsite quarantine expenses, and other add-on options. Travel Insured is the insurance company we personally use and suggest to others but you are welcome to purchase travel insurance through any entity that you choose.
If you want the CFAR (Cancel for Any Reason) benefit you will have to add it to the policy and you must purchase the insurance no later than 21 days from the day you make your initial payment.
When you click on the link you will need to answer a few questions about your trip and then you’ll be redirected to a page with the policy information and pricing.
The basic “Worldwide Trip Protector” plan, which does not include the CFAR or Optional Bed Rest options, can be purchased at any time, including after 21 days from the time you paid your initial payment but it will not cover the Pre-Existing Condition Exclusion Waiver or the Bankruptcy/Default of an airline, cruise line, tour operator or other travel providers. However, you can still cancel and potentially get up to a 100% refund as long as it’s a covered reason.
We strongly suggest that you call and verify what the policy covers if you have any questions. You can reach an insurance agent at 800-243-3174.

Included Ground Transportation

Included in your reservation is Hotel Xcaret’s shuttle transportation from the Cancun (CUN) Airport to Hotel Xcaret and back to the Cancun (CUN) airport.
*Gratuities are not included*
Transportation operates every 30 minutes starting at 5:45 a.m. through 9:00 p.m. and every 1 hour from 9:45 p.m. through 5:45 a.m.
For Arrivals
After clearing customs and collecting your luggage, proceed outside the airport and look for the resort’s transportation staff who will be holding a sign that says “Hoteles Xcaret” (see pictures below).
You must exit the arrival hall bypassing all representatives inside the airport trying to get your attention. These representatives are there to sell time-share and may be a representative for your hotel, but are not your transportation provider.
For Departures
Please see the Concierge desk at least one day before departure to register for your transfer back to the airport. The customer service telephone number is +011 52 (984) 159-1600.
IMPORTANT:
  • Hotel Xcaret’s included shuttle transportation ONLY offers service from the Cancun (CUN) Airport to Hotel Xcaret and back to the Cancun (CUN) airport.
  • This transportation is a complimentary service that is included in your reservation rate and has no cash value, so there are no reductions in price or refunds if the transportation is not used.
  • The shuttle WILL NOT drop you off or pick you up at any other location other than Hotel Xcaret Mexico/Arte and the Cancun Airport.
  • Officially, shuttle transportation services are only provided for your actual check-in and check-out dates. If you arrive in the area any date earlier than your check-in date or depart any day later than your check-out date you will need to arrange your own transportation to wherever you are going and to/from Hotel Xcaret on your actual check-in/check-out dates.
Some guests who arrived earlier than their official check-in date have found success in receiving the included transportation by returning to the arrivals section of the Cancun airport on their actual check-in date, but some guests have not been able to access this area due to airport security protocols. The official word from the resort is that this is not allowed, so if you plan to attempt to utilize the shuttle transportation in this way, please note that this will be at your own risk. If you attempt to return and are not able to access the Cancun Airport arrival section or are denied shuttle transportation once on site, you will be responsible for your own transportation to the resort and the costs associated with this; the resort and Yellow Umbrella Events are unable to assist you with alternate transportation.
If you plan to go anywhere other than the Cancun airport on your official resort departure day, you will be responsible for managing your own transportation. Check-out is at 12 PM but you can stay and access the resort (not the parks) until 6 PM on your check-out date. Hotel Xcaret offers luggage storage until you depart. Late check-outs must be requested directly with the resort once you arrive. Yellow Umbrella Events cannot make this request for you.
Once you depart the resort on your departure date, you will no longer be able to access the resort. This means that you will not be able to return to the resort on any other date to utilize the shuttle transportation to return to the Cancun Airport. If you need assistance with transportation once on site, please visit the Guest Services Desk and they can assist you.

Americans with Disabilities Act

Since the hotel is not located in the United States, they’re not required to be in compliance with the U.S. Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990. The Hotel has a limited number of accessible guest rooms that are available on a first-come, first-served basis. We can request an accessible room for you but it’s never guaranteed.
Also, public areas and restaurants at the Hotel are wheelchair accessible, just not wheelchair friendly. If you need to rent a wheelchair, scooter, or oxygen tank you can do so through Playa Mobility. Click here to visit their website.
Although transportation is included, we find that the resort’s accessible shuttle is not always available or reliable. For this reason, we would advise all guests that are mobility challenged to arrange for private accessible round trip transportation, for the best experience. Past clients have used Happy shuttle to book accessible transportation. Click here to visit their website.

Room Reservation FAQ’s

It is recommended you make reservations 30 days prior to arriving. FYI, Yellow Umbrella Events will send everyone an email with your confirmation numbers and instructions on how to make reservations about 30-35 days before you depart.
We wanted to provide you with the resort’s approved childcare vendor, Kangaroo Babysitting Services. Here is a link to their website so you can ask them any questions and schedule your childcare.

Hotel Xcaret has its own private bus that picks you up at the airport. Unfortunately, they do not provide car seats. If you need one you’ll have to bring it with you.
Yes. All you need to do is fill out the form on this page. As soon as we receive the information we’ll make the payment and email you the receipt.
Yes, they can pay using a different credit card. However, when you fill out the reservation form it will only allow you to add 1 credit card. If they want to use their own credit card, all you need to do is add a note in the “Additional Information” section at the bottom of the reservation form and tell us who will be using another credit card. You can then submit their credit card info to us by filling out the form on this page.

When you fill out the reservation form it does not automatically make your reservation or charge your credit card. The information is sent to us so we can review it first. If we have any questions we will reach out to you for verification. As long as everything looks good we will make the reservation and email you a receipt showing the payment and another email with information about your reservation. FYI, If you fill out the form after business hours (5:00 pm CST) or over the weekend it may be the next day before you receive a confirmation.
Yes, you can always add a person to your room after your reservation has been made as long as it doesn’t go above the room occupancy limit. All you need to do is send your dedicated reservation specialist the following information. 1. Their name as it appears on their passport. 2. Their birthdate. 3. Their email address. 4. Arrival Date 5. Departure Date If you’re waiting to make a reservation because you’re not sure if someone will be with you in the room, we suggest you go ahead and secure your reservation now and then add them later.

Once we have this information we’ll make the adjustment. If you are just switching guests the $100 cancellation fee is not charged to the person being removed from the reservation.
First, send us an email (we have to have it in writing) letting us know you need to cancel your reservation. If you purchased the travel insurance and have to cancel you will be refunded the amount according to the travel insurance guidelines once you submit your claim, but you are still responsible for the $100 per person cancellation fee. If you did not purchase the travel insurance, you may still be responsible for additional fees above and beyond the $100 per person cancellation fee which could possibly include the full amount of the room reservation.
No, not necessarily. This will depend on a few factors like the type of room category each person books since each room category could be in different areas of the resort and how full the resort is at the time of the event.
When you make your reservation you can send the request to us in the “Additional Information” section at the bottom of the reservation form and we will pass it along to the resort. They will do whatever they can to honor your request but it is not guaranteed.
No. Mexico has the same electrical outlets as we do in the U.S.
Mexico has banned smoking in all public places effective January 2023. Some of the places tourists can no longer smoke in include beaches, parks, hotels, and restaurants. If you are caught smoking in public, you may be fined. The resort has recently added designated outdoor smoking areas for smokers.

Electronic or vaping devices and solutions are illegal in Mexico. People who are caught with these items may have them confiscated and may also be fined or detained. If you have any questions about smoking or vaping please reach out to the hotel.
