Our trip is coming up on the 14th and I am bringing cash for tips but in case I need to pull more, is there an ATM near the resort that doesn’t cost an arm and a leg to pull money? I bank with Chase if it matters. Thanks!!
We figure $100 a day cash average and use our credit card/debit card when possible. We usually come home with cash to spare.
There have been some issues with fraud using ATM's in Cancun in the past, I totally agree bring enough so you don't have to worry. T
There in ATM in the store accross the street. But it is stupid expensive. Needed cash last year. Was something like 25-30 USD to use. There a flat fee plus a percentage of the transaction.
This is definitely the thing to do, we also tried to just get a fifty turned into more $1s and 5s at TTR and it was like pulling teeth.
We started bringing 2 and 5 dollar bills for tipping. Most of the time we tip more than a buck at a time so the $2 worked great!
If you need to break a big bill while at TTR go to the bartenders not the front desk. They have always been more than willing to help me out.
