The Azul Fives Beach resort by Karisma, is a great family orientated vacation getaway, positioned perfectly on a white sandy beach just north of Playa Del Carmen.
“Oh The Places You’ll Go.
-Dr, Seuss “
The resort has continued to expand it’s services and accomodation choices over the last few years. I mentioned that the resort was great for families looking for relaxing vacation, but with enough activities to keep the little ones busy, but it is also a perfect choice for couples looking to spend some quality time away to recharge their vitamin “D” stores in the warm Caribbean Sun. We have stayed at the Fives a couple of times have loved the “Gourmet Inclusive” meals, local monkeys that inhabit the resorts grounds, entertainment and the ability to take a quick trip into the surrounding communities of Porto Morelos to the north, and to the south Playa Del Carmen and Puerto Aventuras.
The Azul Fives beach resort has well established grounds with plenty of towering palm trees and tropical plants and other foliage. Wide walking paths along side the pool and along the outskirts of the buildings allow for easy access to pools and accommodations. Walking from the main reception to the beach will take under 10 mins, with options to grab a snack or a drink along the way.
The residence side is off to the side of the main Resort, though it is relatively new it well laid out and quieter than the main side and main pool, ( from our experience )
Azul Fives main resort is comprised of multiple building blocks that speckle the side of a winding river like pool from one end of the resort to the other. Each building block is comprised of 3 floors and multiple rooms per floor. Our room was a very spacious ground level one bed room suite, that included a full kitchen, large family dinning room table, two bathrooms, couch as well as a pull out bed. The bed room had a full sized bed, large tub with separate shower, and double sink its own toilet.

In spite of all that has happened since, I still remember that vigil very distinctly: the black and silent observatory, the shadowed lantern throwing a feeble glow upon the floor in the corner, the steady ticking of the clockwork of the telescope, the little slit in the roof–an oblong profundity with the stardust streaked across it. Ogilvy moved about, invisible but audible.
Looking through the telescope, one saw a circle of deep blue and the little round planet swimming in the field. It seemed such a little thing, so bright and small and still, faintly marked with transverse stripes, and slightly flattened from the perfect round. But so little it was, so silvery warm–a pin’s-head of light! It was as if it quivered, but really this was the telescope vibrating with the activity of the clockwork that kept the planet in view.
As I watched, the planet seemed to grow larger and smaller and to advance and recede, but that was simply that my eye was tired. Forty millions of miles it was from us–more than forty millions of miles of void. Few people realise the immensity of vacancy in which the dust of the material universe swims.
Near it in the field, I remember, were three faint points of light, three telescopic stars infinitely remote, and all around it was the unfathomable darkness of empty space. You know how that blackness looks on a frosty starlight night. In a telescope it seems far profounder. And invisible to me because it was so remote and small, flying swiftly and steadily towards me across that incredible distance, drawing nearer every minute by so many thousands of miles, came the Thing they were sending us, the Thing that was to bring so much struggle and calamity and death to the earth. I never dreamed of it then as I watched; no one on earth dreamed of that unerring missile.
