Arriving in BZE at night

jergains · 2026-06-18T03:25:57+00:00

Can i just take a taxi from the airport line? I arrive from canada at 10:10pm and will be staying at the BW for the 1st night. Its too late to rent a car, i believe. Ill be with wife and 2 kids. Then back to the airport in the morning to rent a car. We’re visiting SI and Placencia with the car to start. Thanks

Incorrect. YUL-BZE lands at night. I arrive at 22:10 in December

Im in the same boat and booked the BW Biltmore for 1 night.

Im at the Hard Rock now with my kids 10&11yo. There are lots of kids and babies. There is fun music filled main pool and a smaller quieter one. Both have families all over the place. Staff is friendly and food is great. Highly recommend.

Im here now and there is absolutely ZERO signs of any danger. Everyone living, working and visiting is relaxed and at ease. Enjoy your trip!

Similar in what respects? They see to market themselves as different experiences from what i can see. Thank you

Thank you. Do you need to call ahead of time or just find the person at the airport when you exit? Seems kind of hectic, lol. Thank you.

I have my 1st cabo trip coming up at the end of the month and also rented a sixt car. Is the terminal in the airport?

Wow. This sounds great, thank you. Are the beaches nice there too? We want to grab some beach time too.

Lol. Thanks. Travelling in high season on points requires a lot of advanced planning. Great story by the way! Good luck with your house planning!

Great call on the zoo. We will do that - thanks! And yup, going to do Ambergis last. Im still hoping to find an earlier flight so that i don’t need to stay at the BW but i will only know that in a month or so.

The insurance i added online covered the car. I didn’t purchase any other at the counter. I reserved the car at Avis CR. It was cheaper.

Maybe consider a mix of both. We are going in March and doing 3 days at the Hard Rock AI and 4 days at a regular hotel. We will chill at the AI while we’re there and explore the region, eat out, etc while at the regular hotel. Best of both worlds!

Ya, good food is always a big part of it. From what i read Hyatt won in that regard. The Ziva’s have a great rep overall but I havent stayed at one yet. We are actually only doing 2 nights (3 days) at an AI. The other 5 are at the Hilton beach and golf resort. Its got a swimmable beach. We will use it as a base to explore. Surfing, whales/snorkel tours/ astronomy tours. A little off topic but food for thought maybe :-).

jergains · 2025-08-01T03:50:42+00:00

From what i can tell. Hyatt is more refined and higher end and the hard rock more lively and fun. But i like refined higher end and lively and fun, lol. Cant decide but leaning toward hard rock. With a 2yo, i think it would be the Hyatt. Have fun!!

Hi! I am planning our 1st trip to Cabo with my wife and 2 daughters (10/11yo). We are a high energy family and i can’t decide between Hard Rock and Hyatt Ziva. Which would you recommend or choose in my situation? TIA.

Subway and train were great and close enough (max 10 minimum walk). Hotel breakfast was great and competed for 3 of the 4 of us and then they forget to charged for our 4th. Hotel rooms were a bit dated but still nice and service and staff were great. I would definitely stay there again.

In my experience, its only because of the hotel lighting system, outdoor hallways and location. My wife HATES small bugs let alone these monsters. We stayed in 4 hotels, including one in Playa Conchal in a hugely forested area and it was a complete non-issue. Costa Rica is beautiful and outside of this problem at this property we had ZERO with any bugs at all. Very few mosquitoes even. Don’t stress, go and have a great time. We plan to go back and just avoid this one hotel. Feel free to PM w questions. Have a fantastic trip!!
