"Our honeymoon in Playa Del Carmen" Playa del Carmen by clairegeordio

Playa del Carmen Travel Guide: 774 reviews and 1,734 photos

Playa Del Carmen, is located on the Yucatan Peninsula of Mexico and is 40 miles (60km) south of Cancun.
We actually stayed in Playacar, about 5 minutes drive from Playa Del Carmen, where the all inclusive hotels are.
We spent a fantastic two weeks here on our honeymoon in August 2005. We did lots of snorkelling, sunbathing, and sightseeing. It was like paradise, with the beautiful talcum powder white sandy beaches set against the clear aqua marine sea.

Our hotel - The Riu Tequila

    An interesting little page. The hammock looks comfortable though I suspect I'd probably just fall out of it.

    An excellent page on Playa!! Great photos of the attractions and nice explanations too. My wife and I enjoyed our Cancun experience much more than we thought we would! Yes, the view from the top of those pyramids is definitely scarey!!
