Acamaya Reef Puerto Morelos - rates & reviews for Puerto Morelos hotels

Hotel info:

Acamaya Reef Motel - Cabanas - RV Park. Far from the maddening crowds, but not too far. Close to nature, but not too close.

Tired of Miami Beach? Tired of Cancun? Want to relax in Caribbean tranquility? This may be the place for you. Just a healthy 2K beach stroll from Puerto Morelos, the little fishing village with just the right amount of tourist amenities. A small rv park and hotel located by the Mexican Caribbean; it's a mystical place where your encounter with nature will be magical. The hotel has cabanas or you can set your tent up on the beach. The friendliness of the owners will make you feel in paradise. If its peace and quiet what you are looking for, this is the ideal place.

This property has every level of accommodation from pitch your own tent to air conditioned cabanas with kitchen and private bathroom. Also available are cabanas with authentic thatched roofs with shared or private baths.

Located only 11 miles (17 km) from Cancun's international airport, 20 miles (32 km) from Wal-Mart, and 11 miles (17 km) from Cancun's tourist shops in case paradise occasionally makes you desperate.

Things to Do: Lie on the white sand beach looking at this hemisphere's longest barrier reef or looking at each other. You can kayak, swim, and snorkel off the beach. Or you can catch some excellent scuba and windsurfing out of nearby Puerto Morelos. If you prefer, you might try eating in one or two or three of the excellent restaurants in Puerto Morelos, like eating Mayan pizza in the Pizza Palapa or eating some sea food while looking at the turquoise sea from whence came your dinner. Shirts and shoes are not required. Don't forget the wonderful Mayan ruins only a short drive away including Tulum and Chichen Itza. Many eco parks are also a short drive away including the famous XCARET.

I think many of these reviews are about other hotels, not the Acamaya Reef. There are no pools here. No activities (other than lying in a hammock). In short it is a "dive". You must see it to believe it. Sort of a "Tropical Sanford & Sons" Good luck.

We stayed here from Mar 01-08/2005. We had a fabulous time. If you are looking for a posh hotel room, this is not the place to go. But if you are looking for pure rest and relaxation Acamaya would be the place. Sure you have to be careful to order a double deluxe in order to get a cabana with a bathroom, but the fact that we didn't have a phone, TV or radio is not why we went in the first place. The beach and the scenery were all that really mattered.

Acamaya Reef is definitely not "beautiful" as one reviewer said. I wish I could post pictures of the place as it really appears. The pictures you see above are quite misleading. It mostly consists of a very large parking lot for --get this-- RVs! Our traveling companions could not stay in their room because when they went to drop their luggage there were ants everywhere, crawling just above the bed. And that room was $47, and did not include a bathroom -- toilet and showers are a group affair, with no designation for men/women. The place is very unappealing and overpriced. The proprietor generously gave us one of their special rooms b/c we were angry that the rooms had no bathrooms. The room boasts of a TV, but when you turn it on, you discover it gets only one channel. The view out the window is of the RV park that is their parking lot.
