Playa del Carmen, where Riviera chic meets Caribbean cool, is the ultimate landscape of pleasure. Once a tranquil village known by the Mayan people as Xaman Ha, it has grown into a truly cosmopolitan and international destination. Days are long and leisurely, spent people watching at sidewalk cafés or lingering in world-class shops. At night the city comes to life, until the party’s end is signaled by the light of the next morning’s sun as it crests over the horizon.

Cosmopolitan, diverse, bustling, 5th Avenue is a pedestrian-friendly avenue that lives up to its namesake. Visitors from around the globe shop the endless upscale boutiques or for the more traditional huipils and huaraches. Restaurants, cafes and lounges provide a range of cuisine from Caribbean spicy to Continental gourmet. After the sun sets, the sounds of traditional jazz or Mexican music invite some in for an intimate evening, while salsa and merengue rhythms convince others to indulge in a night of carefree abandon. Playa del Carmen is a true garden of earthly delights.
