The store seemed to have lots of options for fabric, notions, and even some art supplies (e.g.,…read morecanvases). But I went in search of yarn, and the supply was small and basic. I won't ding them for being something they are not! Hence 4 stars. It just didn't have what I needed. I bought a few packs of yarn given I was already there, but the packs were quite small. It would be very expensive to knit or crochet anything! They had basic colors, and no variegated yarns. I continue my search for an ideal yarn shop in Playa.

For those looking to buy sewing material for clothing- it's all 100% polyester. Just to clarify…read morefurther, when I say "it's all" I specifically mean I looked at each label for each section on both floors and it's all at least 80% or more polyester with some kind of additional blend. The notions are ok but button options are limited, thread colors were low, and there doesn't appear to be any boning available for dress making.

Visited on a rainy vacation day. LOVE the different crafts supplies they carry. Ended up buying…read morefar more than I should have. Thankfully it all fit in my suitcase! Wish we had stores like this in Michigan!

This place was recommended by a hotel staffer…read more This marketplace/flea market was not filled with vendors, so selection was scarce compared to Mercado 28. However, the jewelry selection was much better than any shopping are we experienced, including our hotel (Grand Park Royal). I purchased a cat-eye ring for around $70 for $63. In the USA, it's worth more. The stone is laid in 92.5 sterling silver and fits rather well, not overpowering to the look. I would go back just for the jewlry selection, but nothing more, that is why I gave it a 2-Star (at best).

We bought a couple of tours from a vendor here. The guy Pablo did not explain all the wasted time…read moreyou lose in the traveling in buses from location to next location. Talking to other visitors It was evident that most excursions from all vendors were similar. Talked to some regular vacationers and locals and everyone recommended either renting a car n taking yourself to the parks or getting to ferry (we went to isla mujeres) on your own and avoiding being on the 'tours' schedule n taking control of your time. We literally wasted half our vacation getting from rally to rally point where more stuff was being sold wasting precious time listening to 'options' was frustrating but in the end it was my choice to purchase and as a first time visitor learned a lot.
