Mr Sanchos- Mask Requirements

[wolfganghowell]

We just booked and the contract says masks are required.  But we will be outside - in the pool or the ocean.  Or eating/drinking.  Anyone been there who can clarify this policy?  I don't mind wearing it to walk in and out but seems a bit much to be wearing it outside if no one is around our foursome.

Interested in knowing as well.

Since no one has replied - I haven’t been to Sanchos specifically, but I will say from a recent extended visit that masks are required in all public areas, particularly shopping and transport but not while on the beach, swimming, eating or drinking. In general, masks are required to arrive and leave, visit food areas and bathrooms.
 

Of course, individual places could increase restrictions but I highly doubt Sanchos would as they will be wanting to encourage cruisers.  They even introduced some new ideas to encourage business while cruising was suspended.

 

In general there has been an easing, with increased capacity allowed. Unfortunately there is concern locally about cruisers and tourists generally not following the local mandates. The government regulations are updated weekly.

So confused.  Thought the policy in Cozumel was masks outside and inside.  

 

Wondering if shops near the port require masks as well.  And if we need to put a mask on when walking from ships to taxi area and/or shopping.

Officially, yes, any public areas.

 

Not sure why you are finding this so difficult. As I said in post above, masks are required in all public areas, particularly shopping and transport but not while on the beach, swimming, eating or drinking. In general, masks are required to arrive and leave, visit food areas and bathrooms.

 

Will you find tourists who can’t/won’t comply, don’t think the rules apply to them - yes. 
 

Have there been fines issued - yes, but as a day visitor you will probably get a warning.
 

We were there for three weeks in June, it isn’t  that difficult to comply.

We were there in October and had to wear a mask indoors while checking in.  Once we left the check in area we never wore a mask again.  Has a wonderful time!!!
