Cancun question

Posted by Reagen Apr 25 '13, 09:21

We're going to an all-inclusive in a couple weeks and while I know you still tip, I'm wondering about other stuff. Like, in Cuba, people bring hard to get stuff (toiletries etc) to leave as tips, but would that be kind of insulting in Mexico?

Responses:

Contact the facility and ask what is best. That's pretty easy. -- nm - OAE -- aka Old Antarctic Explorer Apr 25, 09:34
I'd think if an all inclusive didn't have the items you're thinking of, they wouldn't be in business very long. Unless it's the HOTel cORAL esSEX. -- nm - Max Apr 25, 09:30 2

- this is what I'm asking. I know Cuba is a different story , but it's still a poor area outside the resort, I assume. -- nm - Reagen Apr 25, 09:25 9
  - You'll see when you're there, Cancun is like Fort Lauderdale. You can get anything there that you can get here. - pmb Apr 25, 09:29 3
    - Wow. It has built up sonce we were there, then. We went into the *real* town to get grocery type stuff. - Spawn Apr 25, 09:32
    - Day trip to Isla Mujeres if you can. Great place to rent scooters for the day. -- nm - Andie Apr 25, 09:30 1
      - For sure. -- nm - Spawn Apr 25, 09:32

    - OK, thanks. -- nm - Reagen Apr 25, 09:29
  - I had no problems finding everything. Oh, if you wear sunblock, bring your own. - loosilu Apr 25, 09:26 2
    - But he still should not tip with it. -- nm - Spawn Apr 25, 09:27 1
      - he should WEAR it. -- nm - loosilu Apr 25, 09:32
- no, in Cuba -- nm - Don Homer Apr 25, 09:24
money. um, you still tip? -- nm - loosilu Apr 25, 09:23 5
- I'm betting the maid still makes, like, $5 a day. I can swing a bit more. -- nm - Reagen Apr 25, 09:24 3

  - I think I did tip the maid. -- nm - loosilu Apr 25, 09:26
  - two meatballs! -- nm - Don Homer Apr 25, 09:25
- just the tip, loosi. -- nm - mafic Apr 25, 09:23
when we to a Jamaica all-inclusive we weren't supposed to tip (but slipping the bartender a 20 worked out gloriously) -- nm - Beaker Apr 25, 09:22 1
- any white girl wasted? -- nm - Don Homer Apr 25, 09:24
Don't think I would do that. -- nm - Spawn Apr 25, 09:22
