General Questions

Have questions? We've got answers.

  • Where is Iberostar Paraiso Maya located?

    Iberostar Paraiso Maya is located on the stunning Riviera Maya - just 40 minutes south of Cancun, Mexico.

  • Do I need a Passport?

    YES! Travel to Mexico requires a valid passport!!! PLEASE check your passport and make sure it will be valid at the time of travel - June 2024. If not, make sure to renew it immediately as processing times have been affected due to Covid.

  • What airport do I fly into?

    You will fly into Cancun International Airport (CUN)


  • When should I arrive/when should I leave?

    Consultants - the consultant only meeting starts at  Iberostar Paraiso Maya at 9am on Tuesday, June 18, 2024. Most consultants will fly in the day before or earlier.


    Franchisors and partners - plan to arrive at the resort no later than the morning of Wednesday, June 19, 2024. Make sure to give yourself ample time as Cancun can be a VERY busy airport and the resort is 40 minutes south.


    The closing party (not to be missed!) will be Friday, June 221, 2024 at 2pm.


    We highly recommend staying the weekend as we will have an optional adventure day on Saturday June 22 - a great way to get more quality face time with everyone.
