If you are tired of the crowds and touristy Cancun and Playa del Carmen, make a stop in the peaceful little seaside town between Cancun and Playa. It has the feel of Playa del Carmen 20 years ago. The hotel cost about $65 a night and we had an ocean view room. The hotel is a bit run down but... More

We had an extra night between our week at the time share resort and when our plane left. We had planned to find a room in Cancun but our plans instantly changed when we found this cute little town. We were walking the beach and saw a restaurant upstairs on the beach and had lunch there. It was right next... More

Pros: Clean room Spacious Lovely view of of the ocean Parking Cons: There is a lackadaisical feeling to Puerto Morelos, reflected in the hotel. It's a lovely respite from the cheesiness of the Cancun and crowds of Playa. It still feels like a quiet fishing town, and has great places to eat. But, sadly, the beaches are unkempt and dirty....

My wife and I found Hacienda Morelos to be in a state of updating. Painting, cleaning and overall upkeep was in progress during our stay. We were able to book a room and have a refrigerator delivered when we walked in on a Thursday night. Our room was on the fround floor and had an excellent view along with our... More

I LOVE this hotel. It is so peaceful and easygoing. My small children loved the pool, the view, the staff. Avoid like the plague the all-inclusives and experience something authentic. Request the ground floor and you get a beautiful patio that looks right at the caribbean. The small town of P.M is right around the corner. My kids loved walking... More

We actually quite liked this hotel--clean, on the beach, relatively inexpensive. More service would enhance the experience but overall, it is good value for the price. Our complaint is in the billing--we accidentally paid twice for the hotel, due to a Paypal mistake. Despite numerous emails and calls, the hotel has not responded. I don;' think it was deliberate on... More

I have previously stayed at the Hacienda Morelos. It was pleasant and inexpensive. A year later I returned to find that the hotel was under new management and now known as Hotel Carmen. The prices were nearly double. After finding that my A/C leaked water all over the floor, and finding a used razor in the shower, I decided I... More

Nice Mexican-style hotel. Very clean, great front desk help (Anthony,especially). Bath had shower only, worked fine, bath updated recently. TV in room; no phone. AC worked well. Did NOT drink the tap water. Stayed 4 nites.Hotel transitioned to a new operating company while we were there (Carmen Hotels), so the name may now be Camen Hacienda or Hacienda Carmen...Very close...

This charming and nice hotel is located right on the beach. It has nice clean rooms and great pool and deck overlooking the ocean (the deck is so nice there was a wedding going on there!). The hotel also has a resturant and bar. The hotel is right in the center of the great town and a great place to... More
