Looking at booking a condo between the beach and 5th avenue in Playa. Want to travel in early July.
The other option would be all inclusive, but I like the idea of being able to choose where to eat and go.
Area looks nice for Mexico. Just wondering if others had advice on what to do or see while there.
I have been to Cozumel and Cancun but never Playa.

I stay at Puerto Aventuras when I hit that area, little less crowded and more laid back

I've been to Playa. Very nice area.
We went on the cheap to go for a friends wedding. I think there were about 50 of us at the all inclusive.
Pretty laid back area and it did seem to have some good restaurants off property. I even took the bikes into town a few times to drink and shop.

Playa >>>> Cancun
The downtown is really nice, but the rest of the city is pretty poor. I can't really tell you where to go eat and all, but the beach area is incredible.
Tourism has really helped that area

I spent a like 3 days in Isla, great place

Playa's fun. We rented a house a little north in Puerto Morelos and then drove in to Playa to explore. The beach side of the interstate was nice. Inland side of the interstate was your typical Mexican urban area. Look in to Puerto Morelos. A little cheaper than Playa and gives you a laid back base to explore from.
Just a word of advice, if you take the ferry to Cozumel, note that there are two companies that do the ferries and they alternate times. Don't get suckered into buying a round trip ticket. Buy one way so you're not stuck waiting two hours for the other ferry.
