Discovering Puerto Morelos: Authentic Charm & Ocean Adventures Just under a 10-minute drive from the villa lies the traditional fishing village of Puerto Morelos. Known worldwide for hosting one of the most vibrant and beautiful coral reefs on the planet, it remains a tranquil, non-chaotic haven that preserves the genuine charm of classic Mexico.
In the heart of the village, right in front of the main square, small wooden docks hold colorfully anchored fishing boats. Here, you can easily arrange private fishing trips or guided snorkeling tours directly with local boat captains. For fresh seafood at home, visit the local fish market right on the square—every afternoon around 1:00 PM, local fishermen arrive with their fresh daily catch.
Local Dining & Nightlife Recommendations
Puerto Morelos offers exceptional dining, from casual beachfront spots to romantic oceanfront terraces:
* Punta Corcho: Located right in the main square, famous for its incredible fresh seafood and wood-fired Mexican specialties.
* El Merkadito: A vibrant beachfront restaurant perfect for a relaxed lunch, especially on weekends and Sunday afternoons right by the water.
* Muelle Once: A calm, romantic venue featuring a scenic ocean-view terrace—ideal for peaceful evening dinners with delicious local cuisine.
* La Sirena: Positioned in the main town square with a lively rooftop. On weekends, enjoy live music, outstanding signature cocktails, and a fantastic grilled ribeye steak.
After enjoying a fun, lively evening out in town, return home to the tranquil sanctuary of Playa del Secreto. Unwind under a magnificent night sky completely free from urban light pollution before drifting off to sleep with the sound of gentle waves.
Casa Chanty is not a destination for party seekers, but a peaceful retreat for families and travelers seeking to recharge in total serenity. It is no surprise that so many of our guests return year after year, falling in love with the unmatched harmony of Playa del Secreto.

The location of this lovely place is very nice without a lot of beach traffic. There is a vacation compound walking distance either direction but none of the people from there seemed to enjoy longer beach walks. You watch the waves from the big bedroom, the porch, the living room. Place is older than it looks and could use a dishwasher, but beds are great, staff is nice and we had a great time.
This property is nearly perfect in every way. Alberto is fantastic, the location is fantastic, the beach is fantastic. We were blown away by the views and the didn’t expect this but the small community of renters in the other units became our friends and our kids friends. We’re already talking about dates to come back. This was such a great property and learning the history of it made it even better! Thank you to Alberto and Christina for opening this property up to us!
