Many of our renters over the years say they just love Puerto Morelos because "It reminds them of what Playa Del Carmen was like 20 or so years ago, a quaint Mexican Beach Town." The difference between Puerto Morelos and Playa Del Carmen is that Puerto Morelos has been able to maintain a low-key residential community; all the huge all-inclusive resorts are set apart from the actual town. Many of Puerto Morelos residents are working fishermen, and you will enjoy watching them arrive back to the pier in the afternoon with their boats full of fish, take an walk on the beach you will see the local fishing boats docked for the night.

Puerto Morelos is a unique Mexican seaside town which is the hidden serene tropical utopia that travelers long search for but most never find.

The Cancun and Playa Del Carmen lack the colonial town setting that most of the rest of Mexico has, however the exception is Puerto Morelos which has a town square surrounded by neighborhood shops, restaurants and the heart of the community the Church. The town square is the center of activity, most any night of the week there is a soccer game going on (Mexican's call it futbol), there is a playground area for the kids and a gazebo that at times have band playing and on Wednesdays the center of town host a farmers market.
