The definitive guide to this popular destination.

For travelers in the know, Playa del Carmen is the little gem with all the beauty of white sand beaches that has drawn crowds from around the world to Cancun, with none of the high-rise overdevelopment. Playa remains a wonderful, sleepy town on a human scale, yet its discovery has resulted in a wide range of lodging and dining options. For families and adventurous travelers alike, there's something for everyone in this Mexican Riviera, known as the "Riviera Maya." You can explore the fascinating Mayan ruins on the beach at Tulum, shop and have a fabulous lunch on the pedestrian area in Playa, stay in a full-service resort along Playacar, and go for some of the best fishing in the world near the famous Sian Ka'an biosphere in Punta Allen. The Riviera Maya is one of the true travel hot spots in the world today.

As in all the Great Destinations series guides, you'll find important contact information, including websites, transportation details, a calendar of events, an abundance of photos and maps, and essential local information. 100 black & white photographs, 12 maps, lodging & dining indexes.

Best guidebook for Playa del Carmen out there!!!!!!!!!!

Joshua Hinsdale has written what I feel to be the best guidebook for the area. I do not think that he has missed a detail and I knew so much before I went to Playa del Carmen that I was able to have the best vacation possible.

Vital to our Tour of the Riviera Maya

We referred to this guide before, during and after our trip to the Mexican Riviera time and time again. Great tips and reviews from hotels, restaurants, local customs and places to see off the beaten path. Grab it before you go and do your research.

Great guide for travel destination

I purchased this just a couple of weeks before a trip to Playa de Carmen. The book has information that helps you beforehand and during the trip. It does a good job of explaining each region with maps, hotel information, restaurants, and activities. We had a few things we definitely wanted to purchase while visiting, and I used the book to mark stores and their locations before we walked into Playa de Carmen. One of my regrets was forgetting to copy the map of Playa before we left so I could fold it in my pocket. (I did not want to tear the page out of the book.)

The book did list some of the local beers that are available. It did not do the same with some of the local cuisine. Thankfully I found some of the information online. Half the fun of traveling is enjoying the flavors of their food.

I would recommend this book to anyone visiting Playa.

Great guide

This is a great book for an overall review of the Mayan Riviera. It mainly focuses on the more popular spots but does include a lot of info on "hidden gems". Easy to read. I recommend this book.
