Playa del Carmen

For a chilled-out family holiday, Playa del Carmen is the place to be. Stroll down Fifth Avenue for shops, ice cream and street performers, zip-line through the jungle at Xplor Park and swim in the magical Cenote Azul. With kid-friendly Mamitas Beach and loads of spots to grab a bite, family fun is easy here.

Puerto Vallarta

Mixing old-world vibes with beachside fun, Puerto Vallarta’s got charm by the bucketload.
