Abund

Late evening on Avenida 38. Little Italy is the part of Playa del Carmen where the late dinner belongs to the corner trattoria — the second course at the patios, the small wine bars in their late-evening rhythm, the residents at the tables for the conversation that didn't end with dinner.

Little Italy is the chic, cosmopolitan residential corridor of Playa del Carmen, organized roughly between Calle 20 and Calle 42 north of Centro. The neighborhood took its name and character from the Italians who made the city their home and built a small Mediterranean enclave a few blocks from the Caribbean — homemade pasta, brick-oven pizza, espresso bars, gelato counters, the Italian rhythm of dinner at nine and conversation that stays at the table. The anchor restaurants run the length of Avenida 38 North: Piola for brick-oven pizza, pasta, and salads; small neighborhood restaurants where the owners know the residents by name. Walking distance to Mamitas Beach Club and the major beach clubs in five minutes; Quinta Avenida and the rest of Centro begin two blocks south. Little Italy reads as the part of Playa del Carmen the residents who came for the city and stayed for the food settled into.

Inside Abund, the architecture takes the corridor seriously. Each residence spans 1,073 square feet — two bedrooms, balcony space drawn for actual outdoor living, full-height openings that pull the downtown light deep into the interior, kitchens scaled for someone who actually cooks rather than reheats. The materials are honest — wood, stone, glass — and the building's amenity floor supports the kind of community that takes Little Italy seriously. The architecture stays out of the way of the walking-distance lifestyle the corridor is built for.

Thirty-three residences in total, three still available, delivery set for June 2026. Entry pricing begins at $7,174,440 MXN. Abund sits in Little Italy at the rare scale of a real two-bedroom residence on the corridor — a footprint that the denser downtown projects simply cannot replicate. For the buyer who came to Playa del Carmen for the Italian-rhythm side of the city at the two-bedroom scale, this is one of the most considered addresses in the neighborhood.
