Travel Protection
Having travel protection is definitely important and I recommend it for everyone. I personally buy it for trips. However, the option to purchase travel insurance is solely up to you.
Depending on the option you select it may cover between 75% – 100% of a trip cancellation and many other things like unexpected medical expenses, baggage and flight delays.
There are 2 different kinds of policies to choose from and since I’m not an insurance agent and therefore cannot answer questions regarding any travel insurance policies I have found that this is the easiest way to compare them. This is the insurance company we personally like and suggest but you are welcome to purchase Travel Protection through any entity that you choose.
Click here for Travel Insurance Options
You will need to answer a few questions about your trip and then you’ll receive policy options and pricing. This link will give you 2 different plan options (Worldwide Trip Protector Plus & Worldwide Trip Protector) as well as optional add-on coverage for other areas of your trip.
The “Worldwide Trip Protector Plus” policy option includes CFAR (Cancel for Any Reason). However, you must purchase the insurance no later than 21 days from the day you make your reservation. FYI, CFAR is not available for New York State residents.
The Worldwide Trip Protector plan, which does not include the CFAR option, can still be purchased after 21 days from the time you booked, which may still allow you to cancel for a covered reason and potentially get up to a 100% refund as long as it’s a covered reason.
This plan also covers traveling minor children, at no additional charge.
I strongly suggest that you call and verify what each policy covers if you have any questions. You can reach an insurance agent at 1-800-243-3174.
FYI, not purchasing travel protection could result in the loss of your travel cost and/or require more money to correct the situation. Without the protection, there may be no way to recoup any losses, costs, or expenses incurred and the price of Travel Protection IS NOT included in the price of the room selections and is non-refundable.

Reservation Cancellation Policy
All reservations are non-refundable.
If you cancel your reservation you are responsible for 100% or your room total. If you have travel insurance you can file a claim to get a refund based on their terms.
Yellow Umbrella Events is not an agent of the Hotel and has no control over refund policies and other rules mandated by the Hotel.

Room Reservation FAQ’s
Can I use more than 1 credit card to split payments?
Yes. All you need to do is fill out the form on this page. As soon as I receive the information I’ll make the payment and email you the receipt.
Can my roommate(s) pay for their portion of the room on a separate card or does it have to be all on one card?
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 me who will be using another credit card. You can then submit their credit card info to me by filling out the form on this page.
I filled out the reservation form but I didn’t get an immediate confirmation.
When you fill out the reservation form it does not automatically make your reservation or charge your credit card. The information is sent to me so I can review it first. If I have any questions I will reach out to you for verification. As long as everything looks good I 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.
Can I add someone else to my room after I’ve made my reservation?
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. If you’re waiting to make a reservation because you’re not sure if someone will be with you in the room, you may choose to secure your reservation now and then add them later.
The other person in my room can’t make it. Can I switch them with someone else?
Yes. Just send me an email with the name of the guest to be removed along with the name (as it appears on their passport) of the new guest, their birthday, and email address. Once I have this information I’ll make the adjustment.
I can’t make it to the event and need to cancel my reservation. What do I do now?
First, send me an email (I have to have it in writing) letting me know you need to cancel your reservation.
All reservations and payments are non refundable but you may move forward with filing an insurance claim with your travel insurance company, if you purchased travel insurance, at that time.
Will everyone in our group have rooms next to each other?
No, not necessarily. This will depend on a few factors like the type of room category each person books and how full the resort is at the time of the event.
Can I request a room next to someone else or request a connecting room?
When you make your reservation you can send the request to me in the “Additional Information” section at the bottom of the reservation form and I will pass it along to the resort. They will do whatever they can to honor your request but it is not guaranteed.
Those that have more than the allowed occupancy in one room and need to split into 2 rooms – we will make the connecting room request with the resort but a connecting room is NOT GUARANTEED at this resort.
Does the transportation company have a car seat for my baby?
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 need to bring it with you.
Do I need to take electrical converters?
No. Mexico has the same electrical outlets as we do in the U.S.
If you are ready to book your stay, please click “MAKE YOUR RESERVATION NOW” below and fill out the form. Once we receive your information we will make your reservation.
