November has come yet again and you know what that means! The Holidays!\u00a0 One minute its July and you are enjoying long summer days and then all of a sudden you are organizing your holiday to do list!<\/p>\n

If you are living in Playa del Carmen<\/a> during the holiday season, you might find yourself wondering, \u201cWhat will I do for the holidays?\u201d<\/p>\n

Let\u2019s start with Part 1!\u00a0 The Thanksgiving Feast!<\/strong>
\nFor some of you, it may be the first year you are in Playa del Carmen for Thanksgiving and for others you may have already started new Playa del Carmen Thanksgiving traditions; whether it is to go to your favorite restaurant or cook your own delicious Thanksgiving dinner.<\/p>\n

But if you aren’t sure what to do this coming Thanksgiving, we at Top Mexico Real Estate<\/a> have a few suggestions for you!<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Let someone else do the cooking while I catch some sun and sip my margarita!<\/em><\/strong>
\nIf you are looking for someone to do the cooking for you, there are some great restaurant options in Playa; some even right on the beach!\u00a0 What better way to spend Thanksgiving than to eat your Turkey with your feet in the sand!\u00a0 Wah Wah beach bar is throwing their Annual Thanksgiving All you can eat Bash and the price for this all you can eat extravaganza is shocking!\u00a0 For just 150 pesos you can stuff yourself like a turkey for 3 hours straight! Not a bad deal huh?<\/p>\n

Wah Wah will be serving traditional Thanksgiving favorites, starting with the turkey all the way down to that homemade pumpkin pie!<\/p>\n

If you are looking for something with a little less sand and a little more formal atmosphere, restaurants like Auja Maya are serving up your Thanksgiving favorites “sit down dinner style”.\u00a0 Reservations are encouraged to insure your table.<\/p>\n

Be on the lookout for other restaurants and beach clubs soon to announce their Thanksgiving offerings.<\/p>\n

A home cooked meal under your own roof!<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

For those of you who love Thanksgiving under your own roof you can certainly make a wonderful Thanksgiving dinner in your Playa del Carmen home<\/a>.\u00a0 Playa is well equipped for these kinds of occasions.\u00a0 Walmart, Sam\u2019s Club, Mega and other major grocers will be selling turkeys (fresh and frozen).\u00a0 Even if you don\u2019t have the whole entire family here to entertain there is no doubt you will have friends that wouldn\u2019t mind the invite. Create new traditions, try new recipes and start the holiday season off with your own taste.<\/p>\n

A little help with the pie please!<\/em><\/strong>
\nIf you want to have your Thanksgiving at home but could use some help to do the baking, there are some great solutions!\u00a0 Places like Caf\u00e9 Martin<\/a> surely wouldn\u2019t mind whipping up a few Pumpkin Pies to sweeten your occasion!<\/p>\n

Just remember in Playa del Carmen you are never really far from home!\u00a0 If you live in Playa or are considering living here, you can always take comfort in knowing you still have the same conveniences and services as back in the United States and Canada.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
