Resort at a Glance: The Reef Playacar Resort & Spa
At The Reef Playacar Resort & Spa, a short walk is all that separates you from warm white sand and the crystal-clear waters of the Caribbean Sea.

This same jungle-like setting surrounds swimming pools and performance venues, which host entertainment day and night.
- Onsite dining: three restaurants, including Botticelli, an Italian à la carte eatery; Terraza Grill, a Mexican à la carte restaurant; and the Chulavista buffet. There’s also a snack bar, an ice-cream parlor, and an outdoor tea café.
- Sip a cold beer at one of the bars, including a swim-up bar and one on the beach.
- Learn something new: Resort instructors teach scuba in the pool.
- Explore the coastline: Check out the resort’s sea kayaks, bicycles, and snorkeling gear.
- Enjoy nightly shows and live entertainment at the Theater.
- Local tours: Swim with dolphins, explore Mayan ruins, and take part in a pirate night show (additional fees apply).
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 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.
