Hidden Gems of Mexico - Part 3

Do you know which secret beach they shoot all the Corona beer commercials?

The Mayan ancestors named this secluded beach Xpu Ha meaning "morning dew" for its great beauty, luscious and spectacular vegetation. For me it means "going to heaven with Corona".

Al Cielo is a boutique hotel with only 8 villas/suites, which I have not had the pleasure of staying in, but I frequently visit the restaurant.  What a lot of people do not know is that you can enjoy the restaurant, rent a palapa for the day and feel like you are actually in a Corona commercial (and you might even get lucky and see them filming like I did recently!).  Here you will enjoy the very calm and pristine water and long walks on the private beach uninterrupted by vendors.



The clear azure waters of the Mexican Caribbean, the white sand beaches, the coconut palms and the thatch roof palapas have been combined to make Al Cielo Hotel a privileged and unique place for its natural beauty.





How to Get Here:
Take a Colectivo ($20 pesos) from Playa del Carmen, it is a 5min. walk on a little road into heaven.  Located 20min. from Playa.

What to Eat:
Catch of the Day - Fish fillet with thyme and lemon - $245 pesos
Peach melba dessert - $110 pesos
