If you own a clean, comfortable home, apartment or condo anywhere in Mexico and would like to travel affordably by exchanging homes or visiting and hosting others, simply go to MexicoHospitality.com to register.
 
Do you own a home, villa, condo or apartment in Mexico? Do you like to travel? Now, for the first time in Mexico, the Mexico Hospitality Network has put together a network of people who are willing to exchange their homes, villas or condos.

All over the world, travel-hungry folks have joined informal B&B-style hospitality networks and house exchange networks to find reasonably-priced accommodations with at-home hospitality. But until now, there has been very little coverage in Mexico. Mexico Hospitality is determined to change this!

If you're living in Mexico, at least part-time, and wanting to travel to many parts of this wonderful country, so rich in wildly varied cultures, landscapes, traditions and experiences - no importa whether you're a Mexican or an expat - you're going to love the new Mexico Hospitality Network.

Why Mexico Hospitality is Needed

All of us who have been traveling Mexico for years have found that those small and inexpensive hotels, hostels and guest houses where we could stay for $20 USD or less are fast disappearing, and the costs in so many of the areas where we would love to spend time are rising annually.

The concept of a "B&B" stopover for the night, which used to mean that wonderful, hospitable people hosted you in their homes for a reasonable price, has been transformed to mean a classy, if small, boutique accommodation costing hundreds of dollars a night.

But, don't give up! The traditional people-to-people form of hospitality is alive and well in many parts of Mexico, and MexicoHospitality.com provides the way.

The Mexico Hospitality Network is a new concept in traveling in Mexico - a network of people who want to exchange houses, to host one another for a few nights, or to find any mutually beneficial arrangement to facilitate the exploration of new areas.

How It Works

If you own a clean, comfortable home, apartment or condo anywhere in Mexico and would like to travel affordably by exchanging homes or visiting and hosting others, simply go to MexicoHospitality.com to register, enter a profile of yourself, describe your house and preferences, upload a few photos, and follow the simple instructions for paying the annual membership fees of just $40 USD using your credit card or PayPal account.

Once you are a member and are ready to travel, simply review the Mexico Hospitality host homes in the area you would like to visit, then send an email to your prospective host with the dates and type of visit or exchange you are proposing.

Whether you're heading for the beach or the mountains, the ruins or the colonial cities of the Central Plateau, the wilderness or the capitol, MexicoHospitality.com offers Mexico homeowners an affordable alternative to conventional travel.
