Playa del Carmen, México

Experience the Glamour of the Riviera Maya

“Playa”—as the locals call it—is located on Mexico’s Yucatán Peninsula in the heart of the Riviera Maya, some 65 kilometers south of Cancún.

This marvelous tourist destination was discovered by lovers of white-sand beaches, gentle waves lapping at the shore, and outdoor activities. Playa del Carmen has wisely preserved its old-time charm as a peaceful fishermen’s village: there are no towering structures here, and the relaxed ambience still retains its original flair.

A wide variety of activities can be enjoyed in Playa del Carmen, allowing visitors to experience the Riviera Maya lifestyle to the fullest. Besides savoring the crystal-clear turquoise waters, there are many aquatic activities to be enjoyed, such as diving, snorkeling, catamaran rides, windsurfing, fishing, parasailing and swimming with the dolphins, among others.

One of the most notable attractions of Playa del Carmen is its famous “Quinta Avenida” (Fifth Avenue), bursting with all types restaurants, bars, discos, shopping centers, clothing shops and exclusive boutiques that rev up the cosmopolitan atmosphere. Around midnight, Fifth Avenue transforms itself from a family-oriented pedestrian thoroughfare to a vibrant, lively nighttime entertainment center.

Nick Price Residences, located within the exclusive Grand Coral Riviera Maya complex, is only a short walk from Playa del Carmen.
