That is a good point you brought up though, as you should make sure you have the proper stuff, just in case, or if you need more than what is supplied.

Sunscreen will run you $30-60 per bottle, depending on SPF and brand, the better or higher SPF, the more costly.

We took approx 10 bottles with us for 2 weeks, just had enough for a family of 4 (2 adults and 2 children).

+1 on a trip to Akumal , we stay at the Akumal Beach Resort every winter & have travelled all over the area . Snorkelling in Akumal is amazing & i would also suggest the Yal Ku lagoon in north Akumal. It is also a wonderful place to snorkel for all ages , another favorite is Dos Ojos a cenote near the entrance to Xel Ha . A 40 minute ferry ride to Cozumel is a fun way to spend a day as well ( watch for the flying fish when you are making the crossing , pretty cool as well )

Hola everyone,
The trip was a blast. Thanks again for all the tips/suggestions that you have made. Xelha was definitely the highlight of the trip. I would go again in a heartbeat. Tulum was very interesting as well. The foods were great. The Mexican people were quite friendly. I am thinking about a trip back already
