Escape the Crowds in This Chic Beachfront: Casa Vida Dulce
Location
Car: Recommended
Playa del Carmen is on the Riviera Maya just 40 km south of Cancun and adjacent to Cozumel. The location ensures a beach with low waves and calm waters. The entire Riviera Maya caters to American and European travelers so English is a major secondary language. You do not need to speak Spanish to safely and confidently travel through the area. Tourism is extremely important to the Yucatan Peninsula. The people are very friendly and willing to assist the first time visitor.
Playa del Carmen is such a unique town. It offers so much for first time visitors and it keeps visitors coming back time and again. The downtown area is defined by Avenida Quinta or Fifth Avenue, a pedestrian friendly avenue that boasts over 200 ethnically diverse restaurants, unique Mayan handcrafts, and upscale sophisticated shopping boutiques. A little further afield are the world-renowned Mayan ruins of Tulum and Coba, both breathtaking and fascinating in their uniqueness. The Mayan Riviera also boasts some of the most breathtaking cenotes or underground caves that will captivate adventure seekers. The area is also home to many eco-parks such as XCaret, Xplor and Xel-ha. Each has something for everyone, young and old alike!

Year Purchased: 2011
About: Our first trip to Playa del Carmen was in 1990 as two young college students. The town was nothing more than a ferry stop to Cozumel with a few hostels! Twenty years later we rediscovered Playa while traveling with our two young daughters. After traveling to many destinations throughout the Caribbean, Europe and Asia in those twenty years, we fell in love with Playa all over again! The beautiful beaches, world-class restaurants, and interesting culture made it an easy decision to purchase a vacation home in Playa and we have not regretted it one bit!
Why Playa del Carmen, Quintana Roo, Mexico:
After an exhaustive property search, we purchased at Mareazul because of its proximity to downtown -- only 5 minutes by car -- yet it feels worlds away. You can enjoy a fabulous dinner in town and experience the fun night-life, then come back to your peaceful oasis at Casa Vida Dulce.
The Unique Benefits at this Condo:
One of our favorite things to do is sip our morning coffee on the balcony. It is the fastest way to unwind from the hectic pace of normal life. Enjoy the view of the turquoise ocean, the stunning 32,000 square foot swimming pool and the refined architecture of the complex. Enjoy your coffee and ponder what the day will bring: A day of kite surfing at the beach, relaxation at the pool, a round of golf at the Nick Price Golf Course, a trip to Tulum, or a day at X-Caret? You may find yourself having another cup of coffee and considering a lazy day reading a book on the balcony. That is the charm of Casa Vida Dulce.
