I was just in Playa before Christmas and afterwards.
I ran into mostly South American tourists from Brazil and Argentina. I hooked up with a Brazilian chick after we had breakfast at the condo complex we were staying at.
If you want Canadians, Australians, Asians, and Americans go to Cancún, if you want Europeans and South Americans, hit Playa.
Personally, I ended up having much more of an adventure in Mérida, but a lot of things happened there, that just didn't take place while I was in Playa.
Let me tell you, if you plan on going to Playa during Christmas/New Year's, make your arrangements well in advance.
Once it hit the 21st, the prices for everything nearly doubled and shit was booked solid. I was sending PMs on Playa message boards to locals trying to find housing.
I ended up having to stay in a spot a little off the beaten path, but it was nice as hell -- my condo was the suite on the 3rd floor, upper left hand side.
