KAYAK's top tips for finding Cancún holiday rental deals

  • Cancun is known for its nightlife, pristine beaches, the sun and the food, but it also has rich history and ancient ruins nearby. The best neighbourhood for your Cancun holiday rental will depend on what you’re after.
  • The ideal location for a first-time visitor to book their Cancun holiday home is Zona Hotelera, or the Hotel Zone. It has easy access to a bit of everything this Mexican city has to offer: nice places to eat, white beaches and fun in the water, plus English is spoken everywhere you go. Accommodation can be pricier in the Hotel Zone, but a homestay like Casa Lara - Habitación cerca del mar presents a very affordable option.
  • Options for Cancun holiday rentals become a lot cheaper in the downtown area, El Centro. Staying somewhere like Casa Moreletii costs next to nothing. Public transport will be required to the popular beaches from here, but downtown Cancun is less touristy, with the associated lower prices in restaurants and shops. On top of that, you experience a more authentic sense of local life outside of beaches, resorts, and tourists.
  • In a similar fashion, Puerto Juarez, north of downtown, is also quieter, more affordable, and presents a more authentic version of Cancun. Unlike downtown, Cancun holiday rentals in Puerto Juarez like Estudio con vista al mar en Cancún+acceso a playa are next to the beach, but the shores are more suited to boating and attract less tourists. Puertro Juarez is also ideal for ferry transport to Isla Mujeres.
  • Going south of Cancun, Puerto Morelos strikes a good balance, as a small fishing town with local culture and less crowds, but also with its own white sandy beaches and beach clubs. Staying in Cancun house rentals like Casa Carola, Beach House will put the dazzling blue waters right at your doorstep.
  • Adults only, beachfront, air-conditioned, airport shuttle, and pool are the most popular holiday rental property amenities in Cancún
  • Holiday rentals in Cancún are around 55% cheaper than hotels on average. Search here to compare prices for all accommodation types in Cancún.
  • The best holiday rental properties in Cancún are Cozy and Modern (9.8, 63 reviews), Casa Nona Azul (9.0, 137), and Solymar Condos (9.0, 87), based on ratings and reviews from real travellers.
  • Downtown is the neighbourhood in Cancún with the most affordable holiday rental properties (1,639 properties with an average price of AED 179 per night). Viento Suites Cancún, Casas Calis Cancún and Departamento en Dream Lagoons Cancun are the most popular rental properties in Downtown.
  • Holiday rentals are a popular choice for both long and short-term stays. KAYAK users usually book their holiday rental in Cancún for 6 days.

  • Where can I experience a bit of history?

  • Where is a good place to do some shopping?

    Shopping in Cancun is best done away from tourist zones and tourist prices, making El Centro Downtown the ideal location.
