Wheel chair friendly?

[starfish56]

My mother will be in a wheel chair. We want to go to Majahual. How hard/easy will it be to get to and around the town and to a nice beach?

We were in Majahual on Saturday (Feb. 21). To travel to town, find the ticket booth where you buy transportation for $3/pp (the return is $2/pp). The man standing in line in front of me asked the girl selling tickets a similar question; his wife was confined to a wheelchair and he wanted to know if it would be possible to visit the town with her. I'm pretty sure the ticket seller told him that he could get a wheelchair-accessible van on demand. As for getting around the town itself, the road that goes along the waterfront has been paved as part of the rebuilding process - it had been a dirt road before Hurricane Dean hit it in 2007 - so it would seem easy to navigate a wheelchair there.
