We stayed at the Cabanas Puerto Morelos during the first 4 nights (end of May 2004) of our birding trip to the Yucatan and we LOVED it so much that we ended our 2 week trip there as well. I can't praise it enough! I hesitate to say too much in order to keep this GEM to myself! Seriously, this is the best kept secret in Puerto Morelos. The room and the grounds are immaculate and very comfortable. The kitchen (and coffee maker!) made our early birding adventures very easy, and the pool was WONDERFUL each afternoon! We had the ENTIRE place to ourselves those first 4 days and that was such a huge treat but even with other guests there during our second stay we still felt quite private. The town is only 4 blocks away and it is quite lovely. Be sure to check out the fishing tourny held late May each year, the town had a fair-like atmosphere. We recommend the Cabanas HIGHLY to our family and friends and anyone else that would prefer to avoid the "glitz" of Cancun or the Mexican Riviera. I think that it is especially perfect for birders with the ammenities and the very reasonable rates. Since we we there OFF-SEASON, we paid off-season rates. I felt very lucky to have stumbled upon their website when planning our trip (check it out!).
