@ Hotel Básico is just the juxtapose you’ve been jonesing for: a perfect mix of modernity and Mexico. Located in the heart of Playa del Carmen, only a few steps away from the Caribbean Sea, Basico (designed by Central de Arquitectura, José Sánchez and Moisés Ison; Interiors by Omelette, Héctor Galván) presents an industrial contemporary vision, classic natural elements and a cool, chic crowd. 

Find industrial tank pools reminiscent of the oil industry, classic films projected outdoors at night and soccer balls and fins in the bedrooms. If the floating beds, sexy beach scene and steamy, sweaty nights aren’t enough to get the blood flowing, floor to ceiling windows serve as voyeuristic bedroom walls. So be sure to flaunt all of the fun you’re having… (photos via Hotel Basico)
