With this extension, we offer a place to enjoy the Fifth Avenue with shade and shelter from the daily rains that refresh us during the afternoons. We offer Bar and Food service with a big screen to enjoy with family or friends’ parties and events while you can enjoy the sunset and people walking by. We become closer to the local people on our first anniversary with this embellishment to the facade which generated 30% more direct employment to the people of Playa. Our terrace offers a versatile and pleasant musical atmosphere during the midday and at night.”
