Day 1: Arrival Playa del CarmenAt the end of your Mexico trip you usually arrive in Playa from the south. If you're travelling by rental car you'll pass Chetumal on the border with Belize and from there it's another 5 hours drive north. Bus travellers will probably take the night bus from San Cristobal de las Casas or Palenque, arriving at the bus station early in the morning.

Days 2 and 3: Playa del CarmenOur favourite hotels in Playa del Carmen are very central, approximately 200-300m from the broad beaches. The Quinta Avenida (Fifth Avenue), the most popular shopping and entertainment street in Playa del Carmen, is also close by. Our first choice hotel has a very small pool in a shady garden, even with the beach and sparkling sea next door (see pictures below). Your room will be clean and tidy with ensuite facilities and a/c. Some of them even have balconies.Of course, if you're looking for a different style of accommodation, take a look at our all-inclusive page. |
Day 4: End of Playa del Carmen tourIf today's the last day of your holiday in Mexico, then (depending on your flight departure time) you can spend a couple more hours on the beach before heading back to Cancun airport. It's roughly a two-hour drive to the airport where you will drop off your car and board the plane back to the UK. If you're not travelling by car we will arrange a transfer from the hotel to the airport.If you're looking for a bit more peace & quiet and a local atmosphere, then drive on to Chiquila (approx 2½ hours from Playa) where you can take the ferry to Holbox Island, an idyllic tropical beach destination and the perfect alternative to the mayhem of Playa. |
