Some recommendations we have for packing: Sunscreen (lots!!!) Bug Spray (especially if you are prone to mosquito bites. Our hotel has jungle!) Power strip (especially if more than two to a room - each room has 2 outlets) The gift shop is extremely overpriced (I.e. a bottle of bug spray is $33). If you forget some items, it will likely be cheaper to get a taxi into town (Quinta Avenida) or to walk to the plaza (~20 min walk).
You can coordinate the transport with a private transfer company - we recommend AmStar. You can arrange a small bus to take you to the hotel if you’re with a bigger group, which will bring the cost per person down. You can also use TripAdvisor to find a transfer. There is an option to do it with ParadiseWeddings (our travel agent) but this is NOT the most cost effective option, especially if traveling with a larger group. AmStar: https://www.amstardmc.com/ Se puede reservar un transporte desde el aeropuerto al hotel con una agencia privada. Recomendamos AmStar. No recomendamos usar el servicio ofrecido por ParadiseWeddings, porque cuesta mucho más que otras agencias - especialmente si estás viajando con un grupo de 2+.
Recommended companies for a direct and/or private transfer are: https://www.amstardmc.com/en/ About $50 per person round trip https://americanshuttlecancun.com/checkout About $70 per person round trip Cheapest option is taking an ADO bus to Playa del Carmen Towncenter + taxi to hotel (~20 USD each way). Note that it is not direct and it’s public transport. You will need to check bus schedules and book online.
Dress code for the wedding is beach semi-formal. We want everyone to be comfortable as it will be an outdoor, beach wedding - we don’t recommend wearing heels or full suits. Ideas of what should be worn: Women - midi to long dresses, jumpsuits, dressy sandals or block heels. Please no flip flops. Men - button down (short or long sleeve) and slacks, chinos, linen pants, tie optional. Please no jeans or flip flops. El vestuario para la boda será semiformal. Queremos que todos estén cómodos ya que será una boda en la playa - no recomendamos usar tacones o vestido de saco. Ideas: Mujeres - trajes largos, traje a media pierna, jumpsuits y tacones bajos o sandalias bonitas. Hombres - pantalones con camisa manga larga, manga corta, guayaberas. Corbatas son opcionales. https://www.brightonsavoy.com.au/what-to-wear-on-a-beach-wedding/
