On our recent trip to Mexico the BF and I found ourselves in Plaza Playacar on several different occasions. I was really impressed with this little shopping center for a few reasons:
PROs
++ All the shops were really cute! Full of great pottery, shirts, magnets, liquors, luchador masks, sombreros, etc... Everything you need to find great souvenirs to take home to your friends/family.
++ There's a little local artisan beer stand and a Starbucks too!
++ The sales people are not overly pushy.
++ The shopping center is located close to many of the hotels in the Playacar area. Makes a great evening stroll!
CONs
-- There was a man with a small monkey for tourists to take pictures with. I can't help but feel bad for the little monkey.
Plaza Playacar is def a great little shopping center in the Playacar area! read more
