Getting There

Nearly every stay in a saltwater destination lodge in the Mexican Yucatan starts in Cancun.

It is easy to get to from most major cities in the US. Palometa will pick you up at the airport ( you need to arrive before 2:00 PM) or at your hotel if you get into Cancun prior to your lodge arrival date. Their comfortable, air-conditioned 6-person van will transport you and your traveling companions south, along the Mexican Riviera to Tulum where the road splits to bypass the northern edge of Ascension Bay. At that point, depending on road and weather conditions, they either take the jungle road down the Punta Allen Peninsula directly to the lodge or the main road along the bay to a boat launch across from the peninsula for a short boat ride to Punta Allen. The entire drive takes about four-and-a half hours and is very scenic and interesting.
