And he added: “We estimate to receive over 650 thousand tourists, and this situation will benefit not only the businesses of the “Hotel Zone”, but also the establishments located on the Downtown area of Cancun, so the economic spill can reach everyone, and that is the reason why the City of Cancun is organizing special festivals and recreative activities for these dates.”
Finally, the official stressed that many Mexican nationals that come to Cancun during Semana Santa, stay at AIRBNB accommodations or in relative’s houses.
