Playa del Carmen and Playacar
Playa del Carmen, Mexico
 Playa
del Carmen is the true heart of Mexico's Riviera Maya. Located just
one hour south of Cancun and directly across from Cozumel Island, Playa
del Carmen is easy to reach from any major city in the world.
The relaxed atmosphere in Playa del Carmen will charm you right away.
"Playa" (as the locals call it) is friendly and spontaneous.
The weather is nice year round, and the white sand Caribbean beachis close
to all our vacation rental properties.
Playa del Carmen is a wonderful place to shop, dine and dance the night
away. Although it is small enough to walk or ride a bike from one end
of town to another, Playa del Carmen is charming and full of things to
do.
Most people come to Playa del Carmen for its world famous beach, but
there is plenty to do besides just relax in the sun. Playa del Carmen
is a great jumping off point for exploring Mexico's Riviera Maya.
Playa del Carmen is close to the Mayan ruins of Tulum, Coba and Chichen
Itza. In fact, there is even a small Mayan ruin in the Playacar Resort.
Visitors can learn to dive on reefs just off shore, spend the day shopping
and snorkeling in Cozumel, take a jungle tour, dive into a crystal clear
cenote cavern, swim with dolphins, watch sea turtles and more -
all within one hour of your home away from home in Playa del Carmen.
The Playacar Resort
 Playacar
is a resort connected to the south of Playa del Carmen. Playacar is a
private gated community and is divided into two sections. Playacar Phase
1 is the original Playacar development and is closest to downtown Playa
del Carmen. Playacar Phase 2 is the more recent section and is beautifully
landscaped around brick-lined boulevards.
Playacar has an 18 hole public golf course designed by Robert Von Hagge.
Playacar Club de Golf is a challenging championship course carved out
of the lush Mayan jungle. It features long narrow fairways and undulating
greens that are protected by very large white sand bunkers. Playacar also
has a lovely aviary, new shopping mall, bike paths, and more, all in a
charming upscale community.
