Alluring “Day of the Dead” Rates Invite All Family to the Mexican Caribbean
Playa Del Carmen, Mexico, October 6, 2010. Even though Day of the Dead in Mexico might evoke an image of a gruesome and scary holiday, it is in fact a cheerful celebration and children’s favorite time of the year, as homes get decorated, candles are lit and delicious treats are prepared. This is the time when dead souls return to their homes to eat their favorite foods, to dance and to join in the festivities, and are warmly welcomed by their relatives.
Festivities take place from October 30 to November 2, and Playa del Carmen, the main beach town in the Riviera Maya, becomes alive with music, dancing and aromas of tasty treats. In addition, Xcaret (www.xcaret.com <http://www.xcaret.com/> ), the eco cultural family park just 4 miles south of Playa del Carmen, organizes a colorful Life and Death festival every year with traditional food, art, music, contests and shows.
Luxury Condo Hotels Playa del Carmen, located right by sugary sand beach, in the premier zone of the town, invites you to join the festivities. For a condo booked anytime between October 20 and November 25, 2010, guests will get 40% off regular rates, and 50% off any 7 night reservation in celebration of the Day of the Dead. Regular rates start at $145 per night per one bedroom studio. Condo Hotels Playa del Carmen, consisting of five luxury condo hotels located next to each other, offers luxury accommodations complete with kitchens, pools, rooftop Jacuzzis, ocean views, and lush tropical foliage, as well as baby sitter and maid services. All five sister properties share amenities, including Beach Club, two upscale restaurants, gym and spa.

The properties were recently featured in New York Daily News as a perfect option for family getaway, since guests get a whole luxury condo apartment with a living room and modern gourmet kitchen, instead of being squeezed in one hotel room or paying for two:

The Riviera Maya is a stretch of white sand beaches and turquoise Caribbean Sea, located south of Cancun, a short 4 hour flight away from the US. The region offers various adventurous activities for endless family fun, such as zip-lining in the jungle, ATV rides, tours through underground rivers, swimming in cenotes, and visits to Mayan villages (visit www.alltournative.com <http://www.alltournative.com/> , the “off-track” adventure company); eco-cultural adventure parks, such as Xcaret and Xel-Ha; cultural trips to ancient Mayan towns, such as Tulum, perched high on a cliff and overlooking the Caribbean Sea; snorkeling and scuba diving excursions, as the region boasts the world’s second-biggest coral reef (visit www.phantomdivers.com <http://www.phantomdivers.com/> , one of the best diving shops in town, located right next to Condo Hotels Playa del Carmen).
