Fast Fact: Did you know? Approximately 75% of the hotels in Playa del Carmen are within walking distance of the beach - like the Holiday Inn Express & Suites, known for its spacious rooms and convenient location.
Local Hack: Request a 'café de olla' at your hotel's breakfast; this traditional spiced coffee is often complimentary and offers a genuine taste of local culture.
Hidden Gem: Discover the tranquil Parque La Ceiba just 12 minutes from the main hotel district, where you can enjoy local music and arts in a relaxed environment, away from the crowds.
