The Many Faces of the Mexican Riviera

Created by Postcard on July 19, 2001

  • Just 30 minutes from the frenzied pace of Cancun,you'll find a more low key "taste" of Mexico. No high risers here....the highest building is 4 stories high. We spent our days at the Iberostar Tucan when we weren't off exploring what Mexico has to offer.

Paradise in spite of Cancun

Created by pippin on April 1, 2001

  • For years, Playa was nothing more than dirt roads and a few thousand inhabitants. Hurricane Gilbert changed the face of Playa, with entrepreneurship and some 70,000 people. Locals argue Playa’s not the same, but its still lovely, comfortable, and perfectly situated to see all of the Yucatan region.
