Playacar is a private resort and residential development directly south of central Playa del Carmen, divided into two sections: Playacar Phase 1 (mostly villas and private residences) and Playacar Phase 2 (a mix of residential and large all-inclusive resort hotels). It is enclosed by a guarded perimeter with a checkpoint at the main gate.

The airport transfer is 50–60 min — the same route as Playa del Carmen — plus a brief stop at the Playacar gate. Providing the exact hotel or villa name at checkout ensures the driver uses the correct access road inside the development.
