EXPERIENCE THE DIFFERENCE

Iberostar Waves Quetzal is an impressive all-inclusive resort located on Playacar's magnificent beach, just minutes away from Playa del Carmen. "Playa", that's how the locals call it, is an old fishermen's village that has transformed today to 'the' vacation destination in the Caribbean. From its fun-filled water activities like snorkeling and sailing to its vibrant nightlife full of bars, Quinta Avenida (5th Avenue), it truly is the hottest spot in sunny Mexico. And very centrally located - close to Cozumel, Tulum, Puerto Morelos, and even Cancun's International Airport is just 45 mins. away.

Please note that due to environmental factors and natural erosion beach size is susceptible to constant change and may vary seasonally.

Staying at the Iberostar Waves Quetzal resort is like being on an archeological escapade in a rainforest. For one, you'll encounter real ruins that existed during the Mayan era. In fact, many facets of this all-inclusive hotel is an ode to Mayan culture, from the architecture boasting palm tree leaves and limestone to the statue replicas of Mayan gods, each telling their own story. You can stroll alongside ponds, lagoons and caves all while enjoying nature's soundtrack around you. With its open-air ambiance, woodsy décor and warm colors, you'll feel like you're always at one with nature.
