Meztli Policies (required reading for all students)
Holiday school closures:
Christmas and New Year's Day are on a Thursday in 2025/26, so there will be no classes on those holidays. If you would like to pay tuition for those missed days of class, Meztli will donate that payment to local families in need so they too can enjoy their holidays.
​
Why is there a registration fee at Meztli?
Instead of charging more for tuition each week we separate it and call part of it a registration fee. Since some weeks we can fill to capacity, we require students to commit to classes by paying this fee. It is also a way to give a discount to students studying more than one week. Also note too that Meztli doesn't charge an extra fee for study materials, for wifi, yoga, Mexican cooking classes and other activities that happen on campus.
​
What is Meztli's cancellation policy?
If you need to cancel or reschedule a Spanish class, please contact us through the group WhatsApp chat we'll set up before your start date.
If we receive less than a 5 hour notice (or you are a no-show) you will be charged for the entire scheduled class.
If between a 5 and 24 hour notice, you will be charged for 75% of the scheduled class.
Any longer notice, you will be charged for 50% of the missed scheduled class.
​
Payment of your non-refundable lifetime registration fee is the final step in finalizing your registration. Even if you need to cancel, this registration fee will apply to any and all future classes with Meztli.
​
When purchasing a block of private lessons each block of 10 hours must be completed within 4 weeks of start date. Tuition paid is not transferable to another person.
​
Pricing:
Payment of your registration fee will guarantee your rate, otherwise rates on this website are subject to change.
​
What should I pack for my trip?
Biodegradable sunscreen should only be used. It may be best to use none at all and bring a sun protective swim shirt. You will also want to bring paper, pen or pencil, flip-flops, a hat, mosquito repellent, beach towel, comfortable walking shoes, waterproof camera, small flashlight, windbreaker, earplugs. Yoga mats are provided by the school.
​
We suggest you bring your home currency to cover your first week of tuition and exchange it for pesos. There are money exchange houses on the main Street in Tulum and at the Cancun airport that will give you pesos in exchange for paper currency. Please note that online exchange rate calculators are more favorable than the money exchange houses.
​
Non-smoking campus:
Smoking or vaping is not allowed in any area of the school grounds. Please go outside the school property if you'd like to smoke or vape.
