The Grand Hyatt – A luxury beach resort in the heart of Playa del Carmen

The heart of Playa del Carmen is its famous 5th Avenue, a cosmopolitan shopping and dining strip that runs parallel to the beach-bar lined white sand and turquoise waters The Riviera Maya is known for. But if you’re looking to enjoy 5th avenue while staying in a luxury resort, you can expect a 15 minute drive or more to between them (and while still short, when it comes to your precious vacay time, this can make a big difference in deciding your daily activities).

 You won’t have to make this choice when staying at the new Grand Hyatt though thanks to its unbelievable location. You’ll find it at the center of 5th Avenue, just between the famous strip and directly on the beach. If you want to stay luxury and enjoy both the beach and town of Playa del Carmen, this is literally the perfect location.

 Another surprising point is the Hyatt is one of the few non-inclusive luxury resorts in the surrounding area. This means you aren’t pressured to eat at a boring buffet every day and have the perfect location to explore Playa’s world-class foodie scene, from gourmet to local favorite taco stands. And don’t forget the three high-end restaurants found inside the Hyatt, which merge traditional Mexican, Caribbean and international cuisine.

You’re only a couple minutes walk away from enjoying the selection of beach bars, 5th Avenue shopping, people-watching cafes and nightclubs. It’s also located one block south of the world famous Mamitas Beach Club.

The hotel was designed by acclaimed Mexican architect Sordo Madaleno and the NYC-based Rockwell Group. They took inspiration from the local environment and culture and merged it with the best in modern luxury and an open-air design. While large and spacious, the hotel was built to minimize impact on the precious local environment, with the property’s existing mangroves and trees showcased through the common grounds.
