Changes in Mexican law regarding smoking in public places

No smoking

On January 15, changes in the Mexican law concerning the advertising of tobacco products and smoking in public places came into effect. Stores may still sell cigarettes and cigars, but advertising is not permitted.

Smoking is now prohibited in public spaces in which nonsmokers and smokers congregate such as restaurants, hotels, stadiums and event spaces, shopping centers, public transport, beaches and parks, among others. Smokers must use designated smoking areas, including areas on the beach.

At the resort, guests cannot smoke on the villa terraces, but there are designated smoking areas on the premises and information on locations is available at the Front Desk.
