Über don Quijote Playa del Carmen
don Quijote Playa del Carmen is located in a lively area only a few minutes walking from the beach. The classrooms in our language school are set in typical “palapas” (a Spanish word of Mayan origin, meaning "pulpous leaf"). The open “palapas” with thatched roofs are right in the middle of the school’s big exotic garden with palm trees. There is a large main patio with a volleyball court, where students get together during the breaks. The construction of the school and classrooms makes the students feel in a special place of the Caribbean. There are 14 classrooms and a conference room (with TV, DVD, VCR and Stereo) where many of our activities are held. Our teachers are highly qualified and our staff is dedicated to making your stay as pleasant as possible.
The school provides wireless internet free of charge, or you can use the internet in one of the internet cafés near the school for a small charge. There are numerous shops, bars, restaurants and Internet cafés within walking distance of the school. Our school café offers a variety of snacks and drinks.
