Places - Canibal Royal


This Christmas holidays, I made a new style discovery. I'm talking about the great Canibal Royal, in Playa de Carmen, in gorgeous Mexican Caribbean. I love it not only because its amazing style, delicious food and wonderful mood, but also because of its oh so lovely design. 


 Canibal Royal is a restaurant and beach club in north Playa del Carmen, right at the beach. With a 50's style, the place is decorated with hip furniture, trendy patterns (just see the bar at the back) and a relaxed atmosphere. The perfect thing to enjoy the beach.
















The place is a really wonderful, and a total inspiration for a design-lover like myself. I enjoyed talking pictures almost as much as I enjoyed the place itself, for everywhere I looked was a picture spot. My favorite shots, though, are the boats by the sea, and these last ones, which were taken when the sun set. The sky turned pinkish, the light was perfect, and then, the lanterns where turned on. Honestly, could I ask for more?

  By the way, if your ever in Cancun or Playa thel Carmen, you definitely want to consider going to grab a bite there. No regrets.  ;)

Interior Design Spotlight - La Estancia Gaucha

One of my family's favorite restaurants in town has just recently opened a new location. I hadn't had the chance to go until this weekend though I'd heard it was a beautiful place, with an original ceiling. I really never pictured how amazing it was until I got there.

You know me. I had to share. ;)


I'm not sure if the picture does justice. It's really something. It's wavy and it seems to move as you move.


Here's a close-up.

Did you notice it even seems to move as you scroll up and down with your mouse?
How cool is that?

This is what you see if you look straight up:
This wooden structure was designed by Oseo Creativo.

Obviously the ceiling is the main attraction here, but I should let you know this is the best Argentinean Restaurant in town according to many. And the rest of the interior design is just as lovely.

The bar.

Another angle from the restaurant.

The lovely terrace.

The new Estancia Gaucha is located in a gorgeous new building, Punto Sao Paulo, and it quickly became the hot spot. No wonder why.

Hope you enjoyed the tour. I'd love to know what you think.
