What would retirement be like in a neighborhood not directly on the beachfront? Â The following points about developments back from the beach are worth consideration in making the decision if your Playa del Carmen retirement should be within walking distance to the beach or not.
1. Access to the beach
Before moving to other points, it is important to note that even "far from the beach" in Playa del Carmen is not really far from the beach. With a large number of easily accessible public entrance points, the newest, most distant developments on the edge of the city are still about a 10 minute drive (maybe closer to 15 if you get unlucky with the handful of traffic lights along the way.) If you don't want to own a car, a taxi is only about $3. Taxis in Playa del Carmen are all officially registered, and are very safe. You're definitely not giving up the beach.
2. Lower prices, lower fees
1. Variety in Price; $50,000 – $2,500,000 USD
This is good news on both ends of the budget spectrum. If you are buying on a smaller budget, you can enjoy vacationing or a high-quality full-time lifestyle next to the beachfront in a home for just over $52,000. If you are looking a 10 minute drive away, it could be as low as $45,000.
On the other hand, if you are used to luxury, beautiful beachfront homes in town or in several upscale communities along the Riviera Maya are available for over a million, reaching as high as $2.5 million, and offering you the best of a luxury lifestyle. On the other hand, if you want to make a large scale investment, large plots of land for development are available in prime areas. For just about any budget and lifestyle needs, you can find something suitable here.
2. Variety in Styles – Traditional Mexican or Modern Contemporary?
Regardless of the price range you are looking for, you probably have a clear idea of what style of 
The complex includes 3 private green spaces, more than sufficient parking, and a shared central yard, with a private pool and a shade area for lounging, or afternoon barbeques.  El Cielo, the community where Villas Tranquilidad is located, offers close access to the beach (only 900 yards from the villas) a future extension of Playa del Carmen's Fifth Avenue, and a commercial area at the highway entrance. With a bike trail and walking paths, it is really easy to enjoy the community's 14 green areas. The gated entrance, with 24 hour manned security, provides safe enjoyment of the entire community.

There's no doubt about it; 20 years ago land in Playa del Carmen was at the cheap end of things. Now, while there are still some relatively affordable options available (starting around $80,000 USD), prices have risen considerably. But there's a very good reason for this. Buyers have realized that Playa del Carmen is a market which offers good appreciation, excellent business opportunities, and ideal places to build their dream home, at a lower cost than a completed home would cost.
Several factors have contributed to this. One is the tourism. Tourism has grown considerably over the past decade, and has brought with it large amounts of investment, services and infrastructure. It also means that those who build for resale will have a large market available, and their investment will be supported by a large number of services and conveniences. Those who build their own home to live will enjoy the same.
Because of the thriving tourism and the growing investment, Playa del Carmen has become one of the fastest growing communities in Latin America. To support this growth and to diversify the development, the municipality has decided to emphasize bringing a new variety in investment to the "other side" of the highway – i.e. the non beach side.
This new angle shows that land does not have to be on the beach side of the highway to be a profitable investment or a convenient future dwelling. With the new investment, that side of the highway will see a growing number of services, conveniences and high-quality real estate developments appear. Also, because of Playa del Carmen's layout, even the furthest developments right now aren't much more than 10 minute drive to the beach!
