Playa del Carmen is one of those places where the animals don’t hide from you — they walk right up to your lounge chair. If you’ve ever wanted to see coatis raiding a breakfast buffet or iguanas sunbathing next to the pool, this is your destination.

The Riviera Maya coastline sits at the edge of tropical jungle, limestone cave systems, and the second-largest barrier reef on Earth. That combination creates one of the most diverse wildlife corridors in the Western Hemisphere — and the resorts here are built right in the middle of it.
