 | Cancún Dont Drink Water Reviews | 1 - 10 of 18 |  |
Don't drink the water from the tap while you're in Mexico unless you're from there. The water contains microbes that most of us aren't used to and will make you ill (you're liable to get the "runs") if you consume it. Cancun depends on tourism so most hotels and restaurants in the hotel zone use purified water and will post clearly that they do so, therefore it's absolutely OK to drink drinks with ice (even blended) and washed fruits and vegetables. Just buy bottled water otherwise and you'll be fine. When in doubt ask for "agua purificada por favor"... Leave a Comment

Although we were careful not to drink the water while on our trip my husband likes his soda cold and when he orders them they put ice! Well I guess the ice they use isnt very clean either coz on our last day in Cancun, my husbad was so sick! And the only thing we can think of was the Ice in his drinks! Leave a Comment

Here's the generic Mexico tip: don't drink the water. This means avoid ice (even crushed), easy on the lettuce that has been washed with tap water, and just plain tap water. Stick to bottled water.
Luckily, I never fell subject to Monctezuma's Revenge, but everyone I was travelling was stuck in the bathroom for at least a day. Not so pleasant, especially when you're wondering why you dropped about a grand to go to Cancun and spend a day in the salle de bain. Leave a Comment

I have heard that some people have suffered from the revenge of Moctezuma... So be careful with what you eat if you have a soar stomack;)
Else, during summer it's really, really hot so bring lots of good sunlotion if not sunblocking! Leave a Comment

Water - sanitized water is always found in the hotel district but if you venture out - watch it!
There is a bus that travels up and down the hotel zone, it's great, cheap and you can have a drink with you at all times - it's not illegal to drink and drive to be careful! Leave a Comment

They always say 'Don't drink the water' but we drank plenty of water and didn't get sick. Half the time it was bottled, but the tap water seemed fine. If you're worried about getting sick, DON'T DRINK THE TEQUILA!!! Leave a Comment

You are advised not to drink the tap water, although at our hotel it has been purified. Even brush you teeth with bottled water. The Moon Palace provides you with ample bottled water in your room. If you do need more you can always pick some more up at the bars. Leave a Comment
