About

What this site is, and what it isn’t

Why this site exists

We were planning a trip to Hotel Xcaret Mexico and could not find straight answers anywhere. Hours, reservation rules, Casa access, dress codes, menus — all scattered across press pages, PDFs, travel blogs, and Reddit threads, often out of date or contradicting each other.

So we built the site we wished existed. Every restaurant, bar, and cafe on the property in one place, with honest labels when a detail could not be confirmed. Once it was working for us, we opened it up to anyone else planning a stay.

This is a fan site. It is not run by, endorsed by, or affiliated with Grupo Xcaret. The hotel, resort, and parks are trademarks of their respective owners.

How we make money

Two sources, both clearly labeled.

Affiliate links. Some links point to booking partners like Booking.com and Expedia with a referral tag. If you book through one, the partner pays us a small commission. You pay the same price either way.

Display ads. We may show ads served by Google AdSense on long-form pages. Google may use cookies to serve ads based on your prior visits to this and other sites. You can control or opt out of personalized ads in your Google Ads Settings. Full detail in our privacy policy.

We are not paid by Grupo Xcaret, and no venue can pay to be listed, boosted, or omitted. What we write about a restaurant is not tied to whether it is bookable, or whether it bought an ad.

How we handle uncertainty

When a fact could not be confirmed, the field is left blank and the venue is marked needs review. We do not invent menus, prices, or reservation policies. If something is wrong or out of date, please tell us so we can fix it.
