If you have an upcoming trip to Mexico’s colorful, tourist-ready destinations of Cancún or Riviera Maya, don’t overlook Xcaret, a unique and fun natural water park. It’s nearly impossible to be bored here—beyond the water activities, Xcaret is also an amusement park and eco-archaeological park (one at which biologists and naturalists take their work seriously; visitors can learn about the Mexican Caribbean’s cultural, environmental, and historical landscape here). For that reason, it’s an especially great place for families and first-time travelers to Mexico who have an itch to run and play, while experiencing a pretty decent overview of the country’s culture.
Xcaret, which translates to small inlet, is on land that’s noted to have been the commercial center for the pre-Hispanic culture that once inhabited the region. Today, it is among one of the only water parks in the region, and the largest one at that, home to more than 50 natural and cultural attractions, from swimming and snorkeling in underground rivers to personalized, guided tours of Yucátan’s archaeological sites, like Chichen Itza, and cenotes like Tsukán. There’s truly no shortage of adventures, tours, and adrenaline-filled experiences at Xcaret—each of them calling to the region’s identity, one that is rich in nature, traditional culture and spirit, as well as exuberantly fun. Not to mention, Hotel XCaret Mexico, which was named one of our readers’ favorite hotels in Mexico in 2021 and 2022, is on site and all-inclusive (and thanks to its versatility, it’s been deemed an ideal all-inclusive for travelers who normally fear them).
Below, we’ve gathered Xcarat offers and package deals so you can save a lot while living a little. Read on to find a handful of timely promo codes and value deals that’ll make these stellar experiences a bit more affordable.
