We skipped out on the tourist attractions while in Cancun but our most down to earth tourist…read moreattraction was at Walmart lol. Most importantly, free WiFi. There's also a McDonald's here. And they accept credit card. Wins all around. This Walmart was just as large as any Walmart I have seen in the US. We came here out of curiosity more than anything and ended up picking up way too many souvenirs to count, including magnets, shot glasses and mini sombrero topped hot sauce bottles. They were cheesy and touristy and I loved it. Just like every other Walmart, they've got your produce, bakery, deli, perishables and non perishables. They've got your household items, too. If you want to pick up some items you saw in your hotel convenience store but was scared away by crazy up-charges, Walmart is a great place to stock up. I wanted to check out their liquor aisle to see what local goodies they had back there, but there were Walmart (or maybe salespeople from the liquor brands themselves?) staked out, trying to see you some liquor. It stressed me out, because all I wanted to do was browse. In the end, I walked out without a drop of alcohol, but maybe that was what made walking through customs easier. I perused the hot sauce aisle, as well, as that seemed to be an important part of Mexican culture. I ended up buying a few different brands, but I realized all of them were available in the ethnic sections of grocery stores in Atlanta. Suckered in again... Overall, this Walmart can be similar to most Walmarts I've been to but I found there to be a slight difference in offerings, especially when it comes to souvenirs and knickknacks of the sort. Definitely worth checking out if you're interested in getting a little out of the hotel zone in Cancun.

I am writing this to bring attention to a serious scam that occurred inside your Walmart 24h store…read morein Cancun. During my visit, a man named Mike, wearing a Walmart name tag, approached us inside the store and offered what he claimed was an official Walmart promotion: * 6 round-trip ferry tickets to Isla Mujeres * A full-day golf cart rental * Lunch on the island * Hotel pickup All for USD $120, with a $30 deposit. He repeatedly assured us that he worked for Walmart, not any resort, and that it was NOT a timeshare sales pitch. However, later that night he messaged us saying the pickup would be changed to 8:00 AM so he could take us to another resort for breakfast -- something we never agreed to. When we insisted on sticking to the original 9:30 AM plan, he showed up the next morning and again pressured us to go to the resort to attend a 1.5-hour presentation, which was obviously a timeshare scheme. When we refused, he told us the trip was canceled and that our $30 deposit was being kept by his "boss." He then claimed we would have to return to Walmart to get it back. Before we could even discuss it further, he jumped onto a bus and disappeared. This was misrepresentation, dishonesty, and a clear scam -- all happening inside Walmart premises, by someone wearing a Walmart name badge. I am requesting: 1. Walmart Cancun to investigate how scammers are operating inside your store while appearing to be legitimate staff. 2. The resort involved to take responsibility for using deceptive tactics to lure tourists into timeshare presentations. 3. A refund of the $30 deposit that was taken under false pretenses. 4. Measures to ensure this does not happen to other visitors. Tourists should feel safe inside a well-known retailer like Walmart -- not targeted by scammers pretending to be staff. I hope both Walmart and the resort take this matter seriously and follow up promptly. Notes: Mike and Mike's Boss pictures

I love this cute super market in the middle of the hotel zone. I like that they zip tie as a theift…read moredeterrent and keeps prices You get you card and you push it ;please it yourself. On the level 1 there are very much product- Once you enter there are men that try to see for different liquors. They all look quirky and fruity fluid. Tempting but I do not imbibe and don't know about the future. On the second floor they sell salad, steaks,frozen item, popsicles, ice-cream, cakes, fresh. Bollios and delicios scrumptious pan dulce. I shall return!

Super creepy experience here on a busy Saturday afternoon. This was the busiest I have ever seen…read morethe Super Selecto. Lines extended down the aisles. I got my items and used self check out, which took under 5 minutes. An attentive employee was there assisting people. I had Ubered to the Selecto and asked the driver to wait, saying I would pay him directly for the return to my hotel. It's the first time I had done this. I usually walk down to the Starbucks and grab an Uber from there. Thank God I didn't. When I reached the ground level exit a man had followed me! I stepped outside the entrance and he was shouting questions at me in English, asking where my husband was and where was I from, and didn't I want to talk to him!!! I looked for my Uber driver as the man was advancing on me. My driver saw what was happening and pulled up to me quickly, nearly running the man over. He literally saved me from a BAD situation. Where was the Super Selecto security??? I am in Cancun once a month. This is the first time I have felt unsafe.
