Tren Maya Episode 8 - Puerto Morelos Cost of Living

In this series we explore the entire Tren Maya route.
Stay tuned until the end for a tour of our AirBnb, our top recommendations, and a cost breakdown for our 28 day stay in Puerto Morelos.
Puerto Morelos is a small town between Cancun and Playa del Carmen that has some beautiful beaches. There are two sides to this town - the town side where all the locals live, and the beach side where all of the tourists visit. We show you a little bit of both as well as a couple of nearby outdoor malls (Grand Outlet - Go Mall, & La Isla).

Been there in Merkadito too last December. I agree that the service is suuuuuper slooooow.

Surprised that you didn't like more restaurants.

[@GeorgiaandDavid]

We were too. Unfortunately of the restaurants we visited on the beach side we didn't think any of them were really worth the price. Koras was awesome though.

Puerto morales is no longer a tiny fishing village and it has become outrageously expensive 40.00 for 1 breakfast, eggs bacon roll and a coffee are you kidding?

[@GeorgiaandDavid]

Wow! We never saw prices that high but we did spend most of our time on the town side.

@@GeorgiaandDavid it was a shock to me as well i used to go to the cafe America, which was not open last time i was there. I believe they have relocated the restaurant

Biggest ecocide in mexican history. You'd know how wrong that train is with 5 min of research.

[@GeorgiaandDavid]

It is definitely a controversial project.

Would you prefer a highway that takes up a lot more space and has cars emitting more CO2 along the way?
