Uxmal is several hours west of Playa del Carmen and will require an overnight stay. It's only 90 minutes from Merida. That would be a very fun combination.
Uxmal Mayan ruins are on our top 3 list because they are so spectacular to visit. However for most of our readers, you have not been here yet. Uxmal is on the western side of the Yucatan Peninsula and further to get to. So most tourist coming to this part of Mexico go to Chichen Itza.
Travel to the Northwest of the Yucatan. Merida is a lovely city and a great day trip from Playa. This is one of the longer trips and you might want to get a room for one night.
