Accessible pockets exist (resorts, newer developments, major hotels) alongside significant general infrastructure gaps — research your specific itinerary carefully.

Always verify accessibility directly with specific hotels, attractions, and transit providers for your exact itinerary before you book.
Call or email specific hotels and attractions directly to confirm accessibility for your exact needs, book airline/airport wheelchair assistance in advance rather than at the airport, and consider an accessible-travel specialist tour operator for your destination.
