The unique harmony of Playa del Carmen is generated by its village like atmosphere
and the smiling face of its people. Although "Playa"
as it is called by locals and frequent visitors, is becoming
a very popular international destination, its original charm
and atmosphere remain untouched by townspeople tranquil and
hassle free lifestyle. Playa del Carmen offers the kind of
service and hospitality provincial Mexico is so well-known
for you'll find “mi casa es su casa” the prevailing
attitude, whether you book a rustic beach front cabaña or
a 5 star hotel in Playacar surrounded by lush, tropical gardens.
The town offers both and if you're concerned about your meals,
don't be. Playa's restaurants are as varied as its
hotels
and offer traditional Mexican food, fresh seafood, pastas
and other continental cuisine. Playa del Carmen's pedestrian
street Quinta avenida or "Fifth
Avenue" is well known for its sidewalk cafes, each with
its own unique atmosphere and charm. In the evening you can
sip tropical cocktails at a waterfront bar, dance the night
away to live music at Captain Tutix, or join a beach
party bonfire.

are extremely gratifying.

relaxing walk at "La Quinta Avenida" the walking strip where you'll find
anything from Cuban cigars stores to enticing mexican handcraft
shops to international cuisine restaurants for a romantic
