Puerto Morelos Sanctuary of Hope and Time Capsule Hotels

"Angelina 28 was everything we expected. This is a fourteen unit, apartment building offering quiet privacy by the beach. Easy access is through a 24 hour guarded gate by the main 307 highway, for which you will likely need a rental car. Stock up with groceries at the supermercado in Puerto Morelos on your way. Manuel and Abby were our communitive, congenial hosts and promptly settled us in. They were friendly and helpful during our whole visit and we couldn't have asked for nicer hosts. Cleaning and maintenance staff also did a great job. Excellent room service was every few days and common areas were cleaned daily. Our quiet, spacious, two bedroom, two bathroom unit (101) was tastefully decorated, overlooking the pool and beach. Potable water is supplied. Angelina 28 on Playa Del Secreto is far from the madding crowd. Turning either south or north, after passing a few short rocky areas, we were able to walk for miles on the beautiful sandy beach - no vendors and no crowds. Some days, we were able to swim in the warm ocean and other days the surf was high, but still made for a lovely stroll along the waters edge. As mentioned, you will need a car as there are no restaurants or stores nearby; this is not an all inclusive resort! We enjoyed shopping for groceries, returning to barbeque by the pool or prepare a meal in our unit. Puerto Morelos is an easy 15 minute drive to the north. Five stars from Jane & Mark! "

"The staff was amazing.The rooms were beautiful.The properties were absolutely gorgeous and very, very cleannn"

"Ventus Ha at Marina was excellent. My husband and I traveled there with our two kids. The room was great, having access to the entire resort was perfect. The kids loved the pool with the slide and rock jump. The food was decent overall, with the Mexican, Italian, and Mercato for lunch as our favorite option. The staff were all kind and friendly. They clearly try to make the beach nice by cleaning seaweed every morning and barriers in the water, but we didn’t swim in the ocean. I knew that going into our trip so was not disappointed. Perfectly nice to sit on the lounge chairs provided and still have a beach experience. We rented a car which made it easy to go into Porto Morelos and Tulum. Everything felt safe and comfortable. "

"The resort itself is beautiful and very well maintained. There are three pools — one dedicated for kids and two for adults — which makes it easy for everyone to relax and enjoy their preferred atmosphere. We especially liked an easy access to the beach, making it simple to move between the pool and the ocean throughout the day. There were never any issues finding clean towels, which is always a plus at a busy resort. The staff was exceptionally friendly and attentive, consistently going out of their way to make sure we were comfortable and well taken care of. The food was very tasty with a good variety of options. The only improvement I would suggest is offering a buffet option during lunch in addition to the sit-down menu. A buffet would provide a bit more flexibility and quicker service for guests who prefer a lighter or faster midday meal. Overall, it was a great experience, and we would highly recommend this resort for both families and adults looking for a relaxing getaway."

"the staff was amazing I still give the resort 5 stars because everyone was professional and accommodating! I just experienced one rude waiter at French restaurant one night everyone else was phenomenal "

"The staff are constantly working to clean and update the place. The food was amazing, with lots of pools to chose from. Highly recommend for families to enjoy. "

"Staff was great and accommodations were very nice! There were pretty long lines for dinner a couple of nights, but the bar by the beach and lobby bar were good spots to wait. The resort was packed, so chairs were tough to find if not out early enough. Beach is nice and long, but most of the water is pretty rocky. Overall an amazing trip!"
