Getting Around:

The ride from the airport to the apartment is usually around 50 minutes, but it all depends on the traffic and time of day. You should refer to your mobile map app for travel time.
It’s best to pre-arrange private transportation for your group from the airport as taxis are quite expensive. There are private transport vans for up to 8-10 passengers with luggage. You can also take the ADO first-class bus. It may take a little longer, about an hour’s drive because they make a few stops on the way, but it’s much more economical.
If you don’t feel like renting a car and driving around town, taxis are always available, just be sure to take registered taxis only! Public bicycles are available to rent downtown, too. You will see the BiciPlaya stands, where you can rent bikes by the day or by the journey.
There are also 2 ADO bus stations to get you to nearby Yucatan destinations or other Mexican states for day trips, etc, located at:
- 5th Avenue and Av. Benito Juarez
- 20 Avenida Norte and Calle 12
In the event you are driving around town, note there are PARKING METERS IN PLAYA DEL CARMEN! You must look for the Pay Stands/Boxes on the sidewalk and pay for your parking in advance then display your ticket on the dashboard.
