Question 1

Is Playacar separate from Playa del Carmen?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Playacar is a gated resort and residential area immediately south of central Playa del Carmen. It is accessed via the same route as Playa del Carmen — about 50 minutes from Cancun Airport — but requires passing through a guarded checkpoint at the main Playacar gate. The exact hotel or villa name is important for the final drop-off.

Most private transfers from Cancun Airport to Playacar take around 45 to 60 minutes depending on traffic and the exact property entrance.

Question 4

Can I book a return transfer from Playacar to the airport?

Accepted Answer

Question 5

Which resorts are in Playacar?

Accepted Answer

Playacar Phase 1 is primarily a residential zone with private homes and smaller boutique stays. Enter the specific property name at checkout and the driver will use the correct gate access.

Question 6

Is Playacar walkable to Quinta Avenida?
