All-Inclusive Beachfront Resort in Tropical Garden Setting

From its idyllic beachfront spot in Playa del Carmen on the Yucatán Peninsula, the all-inclusive Reef Playacar Resort and Spa organizes several cultural and adventure tours to give guests the chance to explore this scenic region. Head a few hours west to the iconic Mayan step pyramid at Chichén Itzá, named one of the new Seven Wonders of the World. Back along the coast, guests can take a Caribbean cruise on a replica of a 17th-century Spanish galleon or schedule some time at the local dolphinarium to play, swim, and kiss a dolphin. And when you just want to relax, you can simply walk down to the beach and dig your toes into the sand.

Tropical jungle-like scenery spreads throughout the property, with 18 villas and their garden-view rooms shaded by the forest canopy. Paths connecting the villas to the beach meander beneath palm trees and the sounds of birds singing. While the resort is just steps away from Playa del Carmen’s famous 5th Avenue pedestrian area, the resort offers several all-inclusive fine-dining and nightlife options. Enjoy alfresco Italian cuisine at the onsite Botticelli restaurant or cool off at the ice-cream parlor, located beside a natural cenote. During the day, feel free to use the resort’s complimentary sea kayaks and snorkel gear to explore the Yucatán coastline.

Playa del Carmen, Mexico: Trendy Beach Area and Diving Destination

Just across the sea from the island of Cozumel, Playa del Carmen has been called "the hippest city in all of the Yucatán Peninsula" by Lonely Planet. The laid-back beach bars and cafés have a way of converting vacationers into expats, but Playa's most compelling draw might be its cenotes—cavernous sinkholes filled with turquoise pools. The water in the cenotes is crystal clear, particularly at the lily-pad-dotted Xlacah cenote, where you can snorkel among schools of colorful fish.

To the south, you'll find preserved ruins of pre-Columbian cities. Tulum's crumbling temples are situated above a dramatic ocean bluff, and Coba's enormous pyramid rises between two lagoons. For a fun day trip, hop aboard the ferry to Cozumel, which docks less than two miles from the hotel at the pier east of Calle 1. There are about a dozen dive shops on Cozumel, and they offer trips offshore to the reefs that Jacques Cousteau declared some of the world's most beautiful.
