Is that pesos or dollars? On $1500 dollars, you can get a lot more than a coupe weeks of Spanish class in Cuernavaca.
There are four and eight week programs there, in Guadalajara, and in DF that are no more than $400 and $800 dollars, and some cheaper. UNAM in Mexico City offers a 6 week program, but I don't think it's intensive. Can't remember the price but I don't remember it being particularly high.
Granted, 4 or 8 weeks is not enough to gain fluency, but we're not talking about thousands of dollars here, at least not solely on courses.
Late edit: Here's a link to GLC in Guadalajara. They are at $519 for 4 weeks, so a little higher than I thought. http://www.glc.com.mx/prices.htm |

Good link!
Personally, I was making a very rough guess including various other possible expenses (room and board). Plus, I didn't want to make it sound too easy! I'm thinking of going to Playa del Carmen in January myself. I probably won't be taking Spanish classes, but I'm going to try to have extra money in the bank by that time  And yes, I realize I'll be facing tourists and construction. Maybe I'll get to DF afterwards! |

My own experience as a student was very good.
