We've found most villas we've rented had these items. If you don't see them, they may be available through the property manager. Check in advance and save the shopping aggrevation.

My point………you may be able to stop by Wal-Mart or San Francisco Asis and buy what you need. Or you could end up searching every big store in Cancun and Playa and come up empty handed. Chedraui cannot even keep the basics (like Limes for example) in stock at all times, and so you may be lucky or you may not. . . . .
It is either feast or famine in Playa. South of Playa it is sure to be famine all the time.

But heavens! No limes! I'm not sure I could make it a week without.
