Palmaia – The House of AiA *****
Opened in 2019, the luxurious wellness resort Palmaia welcomes its guests directly on the dreamlike beach of Playacar at Playa del Carmen.

The all-suite concept including a magnificent sea view, a variety of healthy and finest vegan dishes as well as the holistic jungle spa perfectly round off the offer.
