My group of 5 (myself, wife, daughter, and in-laws) arrived on a Saturday late afternoon. Pilar, the onsite property manager had arranged for a local chef to prepare our dinner, so we dropped our bags and explored the property. The home is very bright, and is decorated throughout with cool local art and very nice furnishings. Upstairs are 3 bedrooms, two with gorgeous patios overlooking the pool and ocean, and a third with bunk beds looking into the garden.
After dropping our bags and putting on shorts we walked out to the pool which has plenty of chairs, lounges, and Palapas for shade. Steps past the pool is private access to the beach, down a few steps and you're in the sand - a few more and you're in the water! As you can see in the photos there are more Palapas for shade as well.
Since the chef hadn't arrived yet we grabbed a bottle of wine (Pilar also coordinated with me to stock the kitchen with a few "necessities"), poured a few plastic glasses and relaxed by pool before dinner.
When we woke the next morning we all walked South down the beach to Puerto Morelos. The walk is nice, perhaps 40 minutes and with a few nice attractions along the way (I don't want to spoil everything). The town is real and seems to be made up of a combination of ex-pats, starving (or close) artists, hard working locals, and tourists. We enjoyed walking all of the streets to see what we could find. What we found was some of the best food I've ever had in Mexico (and this is my 5th trip). We didn't use the outside grill (I was overruled ) but we did use the paddle boards.
We'll be back for sure.
