She’ll love romantic Playa del Carmen for Valentines Day. Whether you are looking to stay on the beach at our 5 star, El Taj Ocean (named the #2 Hotel in all of Mexico by Trip Advisor for 2012), or something less expensive, but romantic (or romantico as the Mexicans say) at Porto Playa or Maya Villa, both 4 star properties with great amenities.  Contact us or call us at 630-664-3904 and ask for the Valentine Special!

What’s there to do in Playa for Valentine’s Day?
Besides beautiful beaches, romantic restaurants and ruins, clubs, 5th Avenue, horseback riding on the beach, wine tastings, and more, there’s perfect weather and walks with the sun on your back.

Mexicans regard friendship very highly, considering it a precious gift of life, and celebrate both love and friendship on February 14, El Día de San Valentín (Valentine’s Day) also called El Día del Amor y la Amistad- the day of love and friendship.

Just as in other parts of the world, Valentine’s Day in Playa del Carmen has signs of love everywhere. Cards and balloons offer “Te Amo” (I love you), “Para mi amor”(for my love), or “Felicidades” (congratulations). Delicious chocolates and flowers, especially red roses, are also sold in many stores. Try Ah Cacao Real Chocolate  who has 2 locations in Playa del Carmen (5th Avenue and Constituyentes, or  5ta Ave. between Calle 4 and 6).

Chocolate beans come from Central America and Ah Cacao has original recipes, tasty treats and drinks, and is a great place to hang out and people watch!

Pick one of the many romantic restaurants in Playa del Carmen  (Casa Mediterranea, Da Gigi, Asi Beach Club (breakfast, lunch or dinner on the beach) and Origines [be serenaded by classical guitarists] are my favorites).
