3-Nights Ocean Coral & Turquesa Hotel from $323

In Puerto Morelos tranquility reigns with open skies, long stretches of beach and a small town atmosphere. This is the place to relax: watch the sunrise on the beach, meet the locals, explore the natural wonders such as the coral reef, tan under the sun, or simply soak up the serenity. Wedged between the bustling cities of Cancun and Playa del Carmen, it has maintained its peaceful atmosphere of a charming Mexican fishing village living up to its nickname “La Joya del Caribe” (Jewel of the Caribbean). Both locals and foreigners work hard to protect Puerto’s status as a National Marine Park and keep development to a minimum. Its close proximity to airports and bus terminals makes Puerto Morelos a perfect base for exploring the Yucatan peninsula.
