Playa del Carmen has changed from a sleepy Mexican Caribbean fishing village into a popular vacation destination for tourists from around the globe - and the hotel Blue Parrot has been there to see it all!
Even 10 years ago, most visitors thought of Playa del Carmen as the mainland ferry boat stop for Cozumel Island. The owners of the hotel Blue Parrot saw things differently nearly two decades ago when they opened the hotel. They thought the white sand beaches of Playa del Carmen and the beautiful blue Caribbean waters were the things vacation dreams were made of. In their eyes, Playa del Carmen had its own marvels to reveal, including activities for all interests.
When the Blue Parrot was first built, Playa del Carmen was simply a small number of shops clustered around the Cozumel ferry dock. There was not even a road "all the way" down at 12th Street. In those days, hotel guests walked down the sandy beach to their rooms and bellhops carried the luggage to the hotel in wheelbarrows.
There wasn't much to do then, either, so the Hotel Blue Parrot built the now famous Dragon Beach Bar. The swings in place of bar stools, sandy floor, and ocean view are still part of the most visited bar in Playa del Carmen. Even people who have lived in Playa del Carmen for 10 years still come to the Dragon Beach Bar for happy hour every week.
These days, 12th Street and the Hotel Blue Parrot Inn are the center of the new Playa del Carmen. Playa del Carmen's famous Quinta Avenida / 5th Avenue outdoor pedestrian mall has all types of shops and restaurants, and "all the way" down at 12th Street are some of the coolest and best new restaurants and stores.
You can arrange for scuba diving, snorkeling tours, fishing trips, and tours to the Mayan ruins at Tulum and Chichen Itza. The experienced staff of the Hotel Blue Parrot staff can also make recommendations for eco-tours, day trips, restaurants and other tours. We want you to enjoy Playa del Carmen, just like people have throughout the Blue Parrot's history. Rates & Availability

About the Hotel Blue Parrot
Blue Parrot Group
The Blue Parrot Group and its parent company the Blue Parrot are a dream and concept begun on the shores of the tranquil Mexican Caribbean. A man who decided that living once was enough, just as long as you know how to live, left the shores of his native America and settled to play host to the wanderers exploring the untamed and beautiful Yucatan peninsula.
Nestled amongst the Mayan ruins, natural cenotes, and pristine seaside the Blue Parrot began it's journey into the unknown future. With only eight comfortable hotel rooms and a small restaurant, on what was then considered the outskirts of town, Rick Jones began to create the legend of the Blue Parrot. This legend has been chronicled in the New York Times, London Sunday Times, Newsweek magazine, Fodor's Guide to Mexico and many more.
No one then, least of all Rick, knew that years later the Blue Parrot Group would emerge as one of the most famous hotels, cultural centers and developers in the Cancun - Tulum corridor.
Amongst the evolution of the Blue Parrot Group, is still the heart and soul of the operation and continues to be a mainstay in Playa del Carmen's hospitality industry. The hotel is famous for its literally "swinging" bar, fabulous buffets, diverse musical performances and of course the hammocks that sway gently in the breeze by the sea.

Over the years, the hotel Blue Parrot has had an incredible amount of return guests. Repeat business is the highest compliment a hotel can receive. Year after year, guests return to enjoy Playa del Carmen, and specifically the Blue Parrot.
While sitting on the Mexican Caribbean beach, or sipping a cool drink in the shade, the Blue Parrot guests often dream about staying forever, of being a part of this wonderful way of life in Playa del Carmen, Mexico. How many times while on vacation have you wished you could stay forever?
From that demand, from those wishes was born the saying "Come to Paradise. And Stay".
Why not create a home for those who want to stay in Mexico? This was the question Rick Jones posed. As he has learned, dreams do come true and the creation of the Blue Parrot Cielo Condominiums materialized. The goal was to create dwellings for people that meshed with the natural surrounding to fit in, not to impose on nature, but to blend with it.
The designs were drawn up, redesigned, redesigned again. Buyers and the Blue Parrot "family" members sat in on endless design team meetings in Playa del Carmen, tinkering and adjusting such things as wall angles, kitchen space, ocean views. The list of "wishes" for the condominiums went on.
