The hotel Zone, which is a 24 mile-long island connected by two bridges to the peninsula, is marked by stand of infinite beaches lined with hotels on one side and the lagoon on the other. Deluxe hotels, big name franchises, shopping malls and de cream de la creme of Cancun's culinary world all have place here. This long narrow strip of land is also the hub of Cancun's busting nightlife; here, the evening begins at the strike of twelve and ands with the rise of the morning sun.

In contrast to the large buildings of the Hotel Zone, the relatively small Downtown is still the best place to have a taco, buy fresh fruit, stroll and shop souvenirs. The folklore of the markets, liveliness of the streets, the aroma of fresh baked bread from the panaderias (bakeries), family restaurants and friendly atmosphere are all good reasons to visit Downtown area.
