As of December 3, 2010, Playa del Carmen is officially enjoying service from the city’s second Walmart store. The store is especially convenient for the new Playa del Carmen condo developments at the north end of town.
This second Walmart is located in an area which is being developed as a new city center, called “La Cruz,” with city offices, an upscale outdoor shopping center, a large number of shopping and some nicer residential areas. A large mall with a supermarket, similar to Walmart, and a large-screen movie theater that plays many movies in English, a casino, and many other shopping options, already exists, about a 2 minute drive from the Walmart.
