Mexico | Playa Del Carmen | Iberostar Tucan/Quetzal

Amazing Mexico; another Caribbean destination on our holiday map. After seeing other Caribbean countries, I would say Mexico is a great destination for holidaymakers who like to explore the places that they go to. We stayed at Iberostar Tucan hotel in Playa Del Carmen; a small, mainly tourist-oriented city about one hour south from the famous Cancun city. Playa Del Carmen is the perfect place for night life, with many amazing pubs and restaurants to choose from. One thing that you must do is go to Coco Bongo – an incredible discotheque-style show themed with famous movies, bands and musicians. One time there is not enough for many – it is really worth it!

For those who like more beach-type relaxing I would highly recommend Playa Paraiso Beach; one of the most beautiful in Mexico. It’s about 40 minutes’ drive from Playa Del Carmen and is very popular due to its amazing rock cliffs, soft, sandy beach and Tulum ruins. Here you’ll need to be aware that by choosing an excursion to see it, you won’t have time enjoy the two breath-taking beaches. Instead consider hiring a taxi or car as the price should be around the same fee.  We also saw the Chichen Itza Pyramid, one of the Seven Wonders of the World, Cuzumel Island with the beautifully designed Iberostar Cozumel Hotel and Valladolid City with its colonial-style city centre.

As I mentioned at the beginning, there is much more to see. So I hope someday I will return to Mexico to explore it more deeply. But for now, all i can do is to feed my hope with pictures that I’ve managed to take there. Enjoy
