We always stay @Costa Maya Reef, which is just south of Legacy ~ we find it very easy to get back & forth to town w/the Island Ferry pass, that Reaper mentioned. You wouldn't want to go back & forth from the resort to town on a golf cart, takes about an hour and a half (thats if you can get thru). But it is fun to rent a cart for a day or two in town and run around to see what you can see ~ most of the golf cart companies are good, we've never had a problem w/any of them.
