Upscale resorts and modern style hotels have sprung up everywhere in the past few years, however; once you step from the city street, pass through our large wooden portals and enter into our private walled jungle, you will immediately sense that special feeling and atmosphere that only time can bestow.

Many of our guests are repeat visitors that first stayed with us years ago, well before Playa evolved into the popular tourist destination of today.

If you are looking to step back in time to experience some of the authentic 'Old Playa' while enjoying the excitement and vitality of the 'New Playa' Welcome to the Casa de Gopala, The Jewel Of Old Playa!

These days Playa del Carmen is considered a destination resort in and of itself as people seek a less-developed alternative to Cancun and Cozumel. The beauty and charm of the pre-growth days are still very present. Most of the roads remain unpaved. The main square is only 1 block away and the ferry dock is just on the other side of the square.
