You cant beat the Barracuda for a place to stay, right on the ocean, next to Margaritaville and across the street from the Mega store, me and my wife are planning our holiday for Feb 2010 and the Barracuda is on the top of the list.
We live the RIUs. Guess it the European experience that keeps pulling me back!!!
Beginning of huricane season. We got caught in Wilma several years ago in October. But I would not let that stop me from going in September.
We have boiled down our hotel choices to the Alhamba with an ocean view balconey or Playa palms. We noticed that the prices drop off in september though. We could save $120 on a very nice room at playa palms by delaying our trip two weeks to the f...
We have settled on Playa. Now it's just a matter of picking a hotel. Anyone have a great experience with a hotel?

I wish we could answer your questions. We have always stayed in Playa, and really love it. But we are not divers though. When booking the hotel in Playa, check about the beach erosion, rocks. Some places were getting hit very hard by erosion. We a...
My wife and I have been trying to plan a trip to Cozumel(August 21-24th) for a few weeks now but we were at odds over the hotels. I wanted to stay in town and eat the real mexican food and see some culture but she wanted to stay on the South side ...

- Whoops I didn't see the note about the ferry......If you fly into Cozumel, you will need to take a taxi to the ferry terminal and it is $12 per person each way to Playa. It is about a 45 min ferry ride depending on weather.
You are better off flying into Cancun and taking a shuuttle van it shoudl take abotu 45 minutes - 1 hour or so depending on how many stops they make at other hotels.
LOL ok it's my turn to be long with post....

- Hey Eric;
just read your post. some answers to your questions. YES Playa Palms is a great hotel, their staff is wonderful and can't do enough for you. Let me know if yo need help booking the hotel, they are one of our favorites. You are also down the streat from the famous BLUE PARROT beach/night club as well as COCOMAYA. Weekends sometime get a little noisey (FYI)
There are about 3 or 4 dive shops with in a block or so of the hotel, you can snorkel off the beach or you can arrange snorkel trips as well.
Can I tell you about the food..........WOW ........where should I begin?
You have everything from the Taco cart, to slices of Pizza (really good pizza), to seafood, to Asian, to Yucatan Cuisine, there is something for everyone on Playa. YEs if you need the American fix Burger King, Starbucks, Dairy Queen are all down on 5th Ave.
I will personally send you the names of a couple of the favorite places to eat.
Hope this is a point in the right direction

- Hi Eric, Welcome to the Playa Social Club. We have created these sites so that folks who travel to the area share in their experiences, find other folk to hang out with while down there and exchange information.

Thanks Russ, This helps but I heard the Mexican gov't would be allowing card games in 2010 and casinos were being built now in Playa del Carmen which would have card games. I deal cards so if you do here anymore about this I would REALLY appreciat...
