Costa Maya - Golf Carts?

[5668200]

My daughter and her DH were in Costa Maya several years ago and rented golf carts (right behind Marketplace). They just drove around all day and had a blast. They said it was so much fun. Does anyone know if they still rent golf carts there? We'll be there in Feb. and would like to rent them if they are still available? Thanks!

Yes, they do... They sometimes run out of them.

Here is a view of the complex. Carts and transportation are located in the parking lot area. http://www.locogringo.com/maps/tour/P1010121a-t.html

Thanks for the great pictures too. We'll try to get off the ship early to get the carts - we may need four of them.

Where exactly from the rccl dock do we go to rent this carts? I have a knee problem and I would really like to secure one of this carts. Thanks for any info. Where is market place?

I would also be interested in where you can rent the golf carts. Is there a website? Can someone be specific on the location.

 

Thank you

Does anyone know if they have the carts that fit 6 people? we would like to all go in one if possible.

Ok, so you rent one of these golf carts what do you do with them if you deceide to stop for lunch, beach break, etc.?? Do you lock them up somewhere or how do you secure them to keep others from stealing them?

 

Was wondering because I would much rather rent a cart to go shopping, exploring, and visiting a beach.

 

Thanks so much from any imput from others who have done this in the past. I know that I have had my experiences with renting bikes in Europe to do some exploring only to walk out and see it gone

No 6 pax that I've seen. The main drag is pedestrian so you have to park the carts somewhere. Don't think anyone would steal - don't think there is anywhere to go.

 

You rent them at the cart rental place. Out in the parking lot where the busses are.

so are you saying you couldn't rent one to drive down to one of the beach clubs or the trek around the concrete fence to Chac Chu (or whatever the resort is named next door)?

You would have to drive a few miles (?) not sure of the exact distance to get to the road that leads to Chac-Chi - if you wanted to do that I would contact them for directions. Over, under, or through the fence is much faster.

 

You can get close to many of the beach clubs, but the cart would still be parked out of site for most. I don't know the exact rules for where the carts can and can't go, but they aren't supposed to go down the main drag.

 

You don't see any arrows along Main Street:

 

 

And Main Street ahead

 

 

 

Carts do sometimes end up on Main Street, but I am not sure of the consequences...

ahh gotcha

Thanks for the info Zydeco:)

We were just at costa maya and rented the golf cart. It was $65 for all day and $30 for 2 hours. If you is about are real small they may 6 people, but you would be crowded. My dh 250 and I 120 there really wasn't room for any more in the front and about the same in the back. You are really only driving down a sandy road for a few miles past town and back there are a coulpe of nice places to stop. We had one dog take after us but the owner was right there and called to him, since I am nervious of dogs this frightned me and there alot of dogs running loose. The people were friendly and there is a nice place to stop along the road that is run by a dutchman but the place didn't open til noon. It was great and we had something to eat. The place is bright orange and on the left hand side of the road. I would probably shop in town a bit and than take a ride. Also I didn't see very many carts to rent, but we were off the ship before they were open. When we brought ours back around noon people were still out there renting them.
