Pamper yourself with aquatic options at this stylish beachfront villa on Playa Paraiso in the heart of the Riviera Maya. Sit back in the hot tub while the kids splash around in the pool. When you’re ready, step off the deck to the white sands of the beach or retreat the shade beneath one of the mature palm trees. After the beach, set out on an adventure in an underwater cave at Cenote Azul.

Relax inside amongst the air conditioning and modern designer furnishings. The state of the art kitchen is sure to inspire your creative side. Pick up some fresh fish from a local market to barbecue on the terrace for taco night. The doors in the formal dining area can quickly turn the space into a refreshing alfresco setting for 8. After dinner, mix up some cocktails to sip on the terrace lounge.

Turn up the sound system while you’re outside enjoying the ocean view, and let the night unfold, hopping in and out of the pool, walks along the shore, and late-night snacks on the barbecue. Rather a hangout inside? Throw the big game on the Smart TV or settle in for a family movie night. Villa Carrera comes with daily housekeeping to keep the space fresh, and there are 2 parking spaces within the gated-property.

After a late breakfast, grab your camera and make the trip to Tulum Ruins, the ancient remains of the Mayan civilization. On the way home, stop in Puerto Morelos Reef National Park to try scuba diving or charter a fishing trip in town. At night, the beachfront party scene in Cancun is perfect if you feel like sipping cocktails in the sand and dancing way after the sun has gone down.
