Acacia
Dusk at the residential corridor. Zona Diamante is the upscale band where the day ends on the sand — the residents at the small beach clubs for the sunset, the patios in full swing, the small corner restaurants firing up for the early dinner.
Zona Diamante is the residential corridor north of Centro Playa del Carmen — the band where the residential expansion absorbed the blocks north of the major beach-club corridor and built a calmer, lower-density neighborhood with direct beach access through Xcalacoco and the smaller beach paths. The corridor pairs walking-distance proximity to the Caribbean coast with the residential rhythm of a neighborhood the residents who came for both city and beach chose deliberately. Quinta Avenida and Centro are seven minutes by car; the major beach clubs are walking distance; the highway entrance to the Riviera Maya runs along the western edge. Zona Diamante reads as the part of Playa del Carmen the residents who came for the city-and-beach side of the residential expansion settled into.
Inside Acacia, the project reads as a residential condominium scaled for the corridor — drawn around the Caribbean light. Each residence spans 925 square feet — one or two bedrooms, balcony space drawn for actual outdoor living, full-height openings that pull the Caribbean light deep into the interior, kitchens drawn for someone who actually cooks rather than reheats. The materials are honest — wood, stone, glass — and the building's density was kept low enough to read as a residence rather than a tower competing for floor area.
Forty-seven residences in total, twenty-three still available, delivery set for December 2028. Entry pricing begins at $3,626,040 MXN. Acacia sits in Zona Diamante at the scale of a forty-seven-residence boutique condominium on the corridor — a footprint that the larger downtown projects cannot replicate. For the buyer who came to Playa del Carmen for the city-and-beach side of the corridor at the one- or two-bedroom scale, this is one of the most considered addresses in the neighborhood.
Amenities & Features
Unit Collection
Zona Diamante, Playa del Carmen
Zona Diamante is Playa del Carmen's emerging premium residential corridor occupying the area between Coco Beach and Xcalacoco, north of the city core. The neighborhood is anchored by Avenida 38 and the cross-streets leading toward Avenida 1 and the beach. It has rapidly transitioned over the past decade from sparsely developed land into a destination for boutique condominium projects targeting buyers seeking a balance between beach access (~5 minutes), quieter residential density, and meaningfully lower prices than the Quinta Avenida corridor. Best for buyers prioritizing proximity to Coco Beach with a residential neighborhood feel.

Our Take
Acacia is a 47-unit mid-rise on the Carretera Federal / Avenida Universidades junction in the Zona Diamante corridor — far enough north of Quinta Avenida to escape the central PDC noise floor, close enough to the highway to keep airport and Mayakoba commutes manageable. The unit mix is one- and two-bedroom condos with generous floor plates by Playa del Carmen standards (925-1,280 sqft entry), at peso-denominated pricing under $4M MXN. At Mexico Luxury Properties we see this format working for buyers who want square footage over central walkability and who are willing to plan a longer delivery horizon (2028) in exchange for early-stage pricing. 23 of 47 units remaining is the inflection point where developer pricing starts to firm up — buyers entering now still have meaningful unit selection. Honest consideration: 2028 delivery is a real wait, and the Carretera Federal location is a car-required address. Verify the construction progress against your timeline before committing.
