Thanks for all the great information. Can anyone suggest some furniture stores in Playa? Mostly interested in Teak type, rattan and upholstered furniture. Thanks!

The goal being to have a repository of "everything you need to know about moving to Playa but were afraid to ask (or too lazy to look up for yourself)."

To start the ball rolling, below are links to various government and legal web sites.
