Life's a Beach | Expat Life in Playa del Carmen

Last week, the Buy Playa team was invited to a special Open House introducing The Bric Hotel to the real estate community and the various booking agencies in Playa del Carmen. The hotel is a departure from the usual offerings from Bric, far and away, Playa del Carmen's largest property management company. With cheerful, bright rooms starting at just $75 usd a night, including breakfast in the poolside palapa restaurant, the new hotel,offers an economical alternative for travelers to a city that has long ago outgrown it's old reputation as a bohemian destination, catering to divers and backpackers.The Bric team has completely overhauled this property, transforming it into a charming oasis on the middle of the city. Located just 3 blocks from Mamitas Beach, this charming hotel is sure to please travelers looking for a bit of "Old Playa" at a reasonable price.

After breakfast and a brief presentation, we piled into a transport van and headed over the The Elements, the luxurious beachfront resort at Coco Beach in which Bric manages 40 ocean view condominiums and penthouses. As promised and expected the units are stunning and obviously meticulously maintained.The complex is really impressive with an enormous infinity edge pool, sun loungers both in and out of the water and a wide, clean swath of beach reserved just for owners and guests. Just to the north is the cool, new beach club Canibal Royale offering beach service with delicious food and cold beverages.

We are pleased to be able to offer both the hotel rooms at the new Bric Hotel and the beautiful Elements penthouses and condominiums to our customers. If you are considering a vacation in Playa del Carmen or a long term stay, we would be happy to help you reserve you a space that suits your needs and fulfills your desires.
