Situated right in the heart of the Riviera Maya, just 50 km south from
Cancun's International
Airport, Playa del Carmen is the region's top destination for shopping,
dining and nightlife.
Playa, as everybody calls it, provides everything one could wish for, in a
Caribbean location:
White sand beaches, amazing golf, water sports, nature adventure, cultural
and recreational
centers and much more.
After your day at the beach, head into town and take a stroll along the
pedestrian Fifth Avenue
strip, locally known as Quinta Avenida. La Quinta is the place to see and be
seen, with its
cosmopolitan atmosphere of joy, security, and harmony, by day it's packed
with people browsing
the shops and boutiques; by night roving musicians entertain diners in the
many restaurants and
bars. Playa del Carmen is one of the Riviera Maya's top culinary
destinations where you'll find
everything from street tacos to five-star establishments serving up their
own unique takes on
traditional Mayan and international cuisine. As the evening progresses, La
Quinta gyrates to the
sounds of rock, salsa and reggae as people flock to the bars and nightclubs.
The beach clubs get
in on the action too, hosting dance parties that rage on until the early
morning hours and Villa
Aqua is just minutes walking distance to all this fun, right in Playacar, a
high-end development
complete with golf
course,
all-inclusive luxury resorts and gated residences.
Ferry service connects the Caribbean island of Cozumel with Playa del Carmen
so you can easily
enjoy a day trip out to the island for some scuba diving or snorkeling. You
can also arrange day
trips to visit ancient archaeological sites, ecological parks and cenotes.
Whether you are here to relax and unravel, or to immerse yourself in an
abundance of cultural or
adrenaline filled activities, the possibilities are endless and will
definitely exceed your expectations.
