Playa del Carmen

Welcome To Playa del Carmen!

Playa del Carmen is a small beach town about an hour south of Cancún. It’s become a popular vacation destination for Europeans and North Americans. You’ll also find a growing expat community here––North American, Europeans, Argentinians, Canadians, Venezuelans, and more. 

This growth in popularity brought luxury residential buildings, restaurants, boutiques, and entertainment venues. 

An attractive aspect to Playa del Carmen, besides the natural beauty, is the fact that foreigners can work there. So, if you’re not looking to retire yet, this destination is worth looking into.
