Resort at a Glance: BlueBay Grand Esmeralda

The BlueBay Grand Esmeralda is designed to be an all-encompassing experience in the gorgeous resort town of Playa del Carmen. Boasting a private beach, three giant lagoon pools, and daily activities, this upscale vacation spot is a place for families to both play and relax.

  • Grab a drink on the beach or poolside—just ask one of the passing waiters.
  • Set little ones loose at the supervised kids’ club, where they’ll participate in sports and activities and play at the children’s pool and playground.
  • Activities galore: Kayak, sail, play tennis, or get a massage at one of Playa del Carmen’s largest spas.
  • Go exploring: The resort is near jungles and archaeological sites—the Mayan ruins at Tulum are only an hour’s drive south along the coast.

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.
