Cancun Hilton Targeting Couples and Families Instead of Spring Breakers

Cancun gets a bad rap. Since MTV started featuring coeds' vacation habits on the manmade islet on the tip of the Yucatan, the city has attracted a specific crowd - those looking to take advantage of Mexico's 18-plus drinking age.
But there's another side to Cancun. The city features some of the whitest sand and bluest waters of the Caribbean. Lining these beaches are some pretty nice resorts, like the Hilton Cancun Golf & Spa Resort.
Right now, the hotel is offering a 20 percent discount for those who book before Oct. 23. The hotel is also offering two packages aimed at rejuvination and romance -- the last two priorities on a Spring Breaker's itinerary. The "bounceback" package includes guest room accommodations and breakfast for two. Rates begin at $149.00 per room. For an extra $10 per night, the "romance" package throws in a bottle of sparking wine.
The Hilton Cancun Golf & Spa resort has 462 rooms with balconies, including 23 suites and 82 private villas. The complex is family friendly. Parents can drop the kids off at the "Iguana Club" (read: daycare center) and spend the afternoon at the 18-hole par-72 golf course. And with all-things-Green these days, guests visiting during the months of September or October can participate in the turtle release program.
