What Travellers Say
Reviews Summary
La Europa Zona Hotelera is praised for its extensive selection of premium tequilas and spirits, with many bottles available for sampling before purchase. Visitors appreciate the knowledgeable staff and the convenience of its Hotel Zone location. However, some note that packaging options could be improved, and bringing your own bags is recommended.
"Most of the Great Tequilas that I love are unfortunately just for export to US but I come here for one of a kind smooth Tequila sipper and just amazing staff. Mine has a beautiful box for transport … it’s already added to my collections at home💯🤍"

"This is a decent liquor store if you are looking for some more local options versus what you get at the duty free - most bottles (other than very expensive ones) can be sampled before purchase which is nice."

"Great location, but service could be better
I purchased five bottles to take with me on my trip. While the store is in a great location—just 23 minutes from the airport and in one of the most tourist-heavy areas in the country (Zona Hotelera, Cancún)—the lack of basic packaging options was disappointing.
If I were the manager, I would definitely prioritize offering protective bags or wrapping materials, especially given how many travelers likely pass through this area. There was no bubble wrap, no TSA-approved liquid bags, not even a basic bag or box available.
Thankfully, one of the staff members kindly offered to help carry the bottles to my car, which I appreciated. Still, better preparation and service would make a big difference."
