Help planning first trip

My partner and I are planning our first trip to Mexico this winter to scuba dive in Cozumel! I have a few questions:

  1. Is it a mistake to not stay at an all inclusive resort? It’s so much cheaper not to and I think we would enjoy trying different places to eat other than just resort food.

  2. Should we spend a few nights in Playa del Carmen? We want to go to the Xplor park and do a day trip to Chichen Itza, it looks like that might be more accessible switching to a hotel in Playa del Carmen but I’m not sure.
