The beautiful El Taj and Porto Playa wedding venues are located in the quaint and wonderful beachside town of Playa Del Carmen, Mexico – truly a vacation paradise. Playa del Carmen (or Playa as the locals refer to it) is very European in both architecture and life. Once in Playa, there is no need for a car, you can walk everywhere. Walk the famous 5th Avenue which is pedestrian only and a beauty at night with lights. This is where everyone goes to find a place for dinner at one of the hundreds of outdoor restaurants, bars and shops. The 5th, as the locals call it, is about 2 miles long, cobblestone and has everything from local restaurants to upscale designer stores. You will find Italian, American, and Mexican cuisine, excellent Argentine steak houses, gelato and fun tequilla bars, there’s something for everyone.
The white sandy beach with the turquoise ocean water is one of the most beautiful beaches to be found on the Caribbean and both hotels have all the amenities one would find in a luxury condo hotel including 24 hour concierge service and 24 gated onsite security. Both wedding venues are located right off the famous 5th avenue of Playa Del Carmen and centrally located so you are within walking distance of the beach, 5th avenue, and the Cozumel ferry pier where you are a 45 minute ferry ride to the some of the best diving and snorkeling to be found anywhere in the world.
The wedding reception area is located in Porto Playa where the focal point is a Sanctuary reminiscent of a tropical rain forest. The infinity pool on the second floor creates four waterfalls into a pool below within the rain forest. There is even a ‘State of the Art’ Gym and Fitness Center right on the premises.
The wedding ceremony area is located on the beach at El Taj Oceanside where the designers traveled to Indonesia trying to recreate an environment reminiscent of Bali. The pool sits right on the beach in front of our exclusive beach club.
These wedding destinations are only 45-minutes south of the Cancun International Airport, and located on First Street in central Playa Del Carmen. Whether you are looking for a relaxing vacation on the beach, exciting adventures or planning a destination wedding you will find these Mexican wedding locations to be everything you could desire to make your trip complete.
