RESERVATIONS IN THE GROUP ARE FULLY NON-REFUNDABLE WITHOUT INSURANCE AFTER JANUARY 24TH, 2025 .

Here and Away Travel STRONGLY recommends that you purchase travel insurance, especially when traveling internationally.

We highly recommend travel insurance not only to protect the investment on your trip (many deposits and payments with group blocks are non-refundable if you do not), but also to protect you if something unexpected happens and you need medical attention or have to go to the hospital in Mexico. Most US insurance companies don’t cover anything that happens outside of the USA, which can leave you with HUGE bills that would not be reimbursed unless you have medical coverage for your trip. (Also please note, the hospitals in Mexico will not allow you to leave until ALL bills have been paid.

Please note that Here and Away Travel cannot help you recoup any financial losses that arise in the case that you do not purchase travel insurance.

CANCELLATIONS: ALL RESERVATIONS IN THE GROUP ARE FULLY NON-REFUNDABLE AFTER JANUARY 24TH, 2025 WITHOUT INSURANCE.

$200 Deposits are NON-REFUNDABLE WITHOUT INSURANCE COVERAGE. We know that most things that come up that would cause you to have to cancel your trip are unexpected and that most people think they will never use their travel insurance. The fact is,most won’t have to use it and we hope you never do.

But travel insurance isn’t for those “most times.” It’s for the times that something unexpected comes up before or during travel - illnesses, last minute work obligations, sudden financial stresses, injuries during travel, etc.

The last thing we want is for something incredibly stressful to be going on and then on top of it, you are out thousands of dollars in travel costs or medical expenses because you did not purchase insurance. Please note that not refunding costs after the date of January 24th, 2025 is not our policy, it is the resort’s group policy and they do not budge. PLEASE we beg you to consider travel insurance so that you are financially protected in all scenarios.

Per person pricing is on the flyer on the next page, and the inclusions for each insurance policy are below:

Here are the inclusions for the Group Elite Insurance WITH Cancel for Any Reason waiver:

Insurance WITH Cancel for any Reason

*With this option, if you cancel for a covered reason you will get 100% of your money back less the cost of the insurance if you have to file a claim. If you have to cancel for a reason not covered buy the policy, the Cancel for any Reason Waiver kicks in and you will receive a 75% refund less the cost of the insurance.

And the inclusions for the Group Select

Insurance WITHOUT the Cancel for Any Reason waiver:

Insurance WITHOUT Cancel for any Reason

*With this option, if you cancel for a covered reason you will get 100% of your money back less the cost of the insurance if you have to file a claim. If you have to cancel for a reason not covered buy the policy, they will not offer any refund.

Please make sure you read thoroughly so that you understand the situations where you will be covered and where you will not.
