The palapa-style spa and casual, welcoming vibe make the whitewashed Xaman Ha Condominiums a favorite among vacationers looking for a low-key escape. Playa del Carmen is known worldwide for its incredible diving and snorkeling, so get everyone set up with ridiculous-looking masks and squeeze in for group shots just begging to be posted instantly. (Prepare to break your all-time “likes” record.) Let the afternoon clouds drift by as you gaze up occasionally from your lounger, or backstroke it over to the swim-up bar. Each spacious vacation residence is individually owned, varying in size, layout and décor. All have private balconies for leisurely evenings over board games, cards or just drinks and laughs. Want to see more of the local area? Take the two-block walk to the boutiques, restaurants and nightlife of the famous Quinta Avenida – or the ten-minute walk to the Cozumel ferry. Get in touch with your inner nature-lover at the nearby parks, or on a long horseback ride or tour of the mystical underground rivers and cenotes.
