Cancun Family Hotels
The Hotel Zone (Isla Cancun) looks like the shape of a 7. The back of the 7 consists of all the resorts and the beaches are facing east. Child-friendly swimming can be found at the top of 7 which faces north and this is also protected from the ocean waves. The downtown of Cancun (Ciudad) is in the inland with all the cheap hotels with local food. That is the best.
The best website to book your stay at a family hotel in Cancun is booking.com.

Cancun Travel Tips
El Fish Fritanga is the most wonderful local restaurant located near the beach. It has a lovely view of the lagoon and is very popular among the locals with amazing seafood. But if you are in the mood for tacos, the Taco Factory will be a perfect choice.
The Cenote Day tour is the best tour you will find in Cancun that is also child-friendly. They take you to cenotes where you can swim, zipline and even snorkel but keep In mind that the children need to be older than 6 years. Swimming in a sinkhole filled with rainwater (cenote) is one of the most wonderful things you can do in Yucatan. Pick-up from the hotel, gear for snorkeling, lunch and life vests are all part of the tour package so you don’t have to worry about anything.
Not really in the mood for tourist attractions? Then rather go to a child-friendly beach such as Isla Mujeres or Tulum who has also go lovely beaches and lovely boutique hotels.
You can really visit Cancun at any time of the year but if you are looking for pleasant weather, I suggest you think about planning your trip anytime between December and April.
