Playa Del Carmen, is located on the Riviera Maya, only a
50 minute ride south of the Cancun airport and another 40 minutes
south will get you to Tulum. Playa is the largest town in the
Riviera Maya, having grown extensively since
being a fisherman's village. Thanks to a few laws that restrict the height of buildings,
Playa has managed to maintain its quaint atmosphere. It has
not been overrun by big hotels stealing all the beautiful ocean views.

After spending the day on the
white sand beaches or diving in the cenotes, the locals and tourists
alike gather along 5th Avenue where you can find a variety of
cuisine, shops and night life. Playa accommodates the young and the not
so young quite effortlessly. We have found Playa Del Carmen to
have a wonderful cross section of cultural backgrounds. People
from all over the world have relocated here, including us. There
is something about this place that you want to be a part of.
If you are looking for the hustle and bustle of Cancun or Cozumel you will not find it in Playa Del Carmen.
