"This two-in-one Playa del Carmen powerhouse brings chic, urban luxe with a touch of beachy bohemia to Mexico’s Caribbean coast."

Mr & Mrs Smith
"Its hip town-center base has a buzzy rooftop hotspot, and its shoreside counterpart’s a laid-back boho beach house. You’ll find plenty of sun, Mexican-inspired food and flair, and views."
