Summer Vacation: Part II - Playacar Palace

8/28/2017

 
We had a quick transfer from the Now Sapphire to the Playacar Palace.  Two years ago I visited this small, relaxed resort right in the heart of Playa del Carmen for an afternoon and instantly thought it was wonderful.

When I was booking the resort, I found out that they were closing the week after we'd be there.  The whole resort was going to be renovated over the course of three months.  Sandy and I both felt like the staff had the feeling of it being the last day of camp.​

Summer Vacation: Part I - Now Sapphire

8/18/2017
