Hotel Profile: Casa Ticul Playa del Carmen

Located in the newly bustling northern part of Fifth Avenue (Quinta between 38th and 40th Streets) this independently owned adults-only boutique hotel opened in early 2008. It is named after an old Yucatan city 60 miles south of Merida known for its clay pottery and leather shoes, but the environs here are decidedly more contemporary. The cozy lobby feels like a stylish home in 1940s Europe and the quaint courtyard with a small pool and sundeck looks especially charming after the sun goes down.

The 20 rooms are thoroughly modern, with dark wood furnishings, luxury bedding with pillow-top mattresses, large flat-screen TVs, powerful air conditioning, minibars, safes, nice bathrooms with rainshowers and plenty of hot water, bedside slippers, radio alarmclocks, diffused lighting and complimentary wireless Internet access, even by the pool.

Across the street is a large condo complex and there are many shops, restaurants and bars within easy walking distance. A great stretch of beach, backed by luxury hotels and beach clubs, is just two and a half blocks away and the ferry dock and town square are about a mile and a half to the south. Rates range from $130 to $220. Highly recommended.
