Nowhere in Mexico will you hear as many different languages than when walking down Playa del Carmen’s buzzing 5th Avenue. In the last two decades, Mexico’s Riviera Maya has exploded with options for travelers on all levels of the economic spectrum. Amongst Spanish and English spoken with a myriad of accents, the chatter of Russian, French, Portuguese, Italian and even Chinese serenade the store fronts and multitudes of restaurants.
But what brings such a medley of distinct nationalities to this part of Mexico? And why would you want to join them?
Beyond 5th Avenue
Contrary to what you might think when seeing images of Playa del Carmen’s 5th Avenue back to back with wide-eyed tourists, Mexico’s Caribbean coastline is fully primed to go heads and tails above and beyond the expectations of today’s most refined traveler. The region has become a magnet for international jet-setters, Instagram influencers and affluent families looking for authentic experiences and the best of the best when it comes to luxury.
Yes, 5th Avenue might be packed 7 days a week, 52 weeks a year with the tourist mob, but we promise you, there’s so much more to Riviera Maya than 5th Avenue. And yes, you will no doubt find yourself walking the street at some point. A getaway without some guilty pleasures, is just not a vacation.
