Great place for a more authentic Puerto Morelos experience at a reasonable price. The hosts Eva and Bernardo are incredibly hospitable and helped us with whatever we needed. Our room was spacious and the beds very comfortable. The breakfast area is charming and we enjoyed chatting with fellow travelers from all over the world each morning. Breakfast consisted of coffee, toasts, fruit and yogurt. The hotel is located in the colonial neighborhoods of Puerto and Is a great choice for someone looking for alternatives to the tourist, all inclusive experience. Free bikes were a huge plus for going to the beach; we also took advantage of the free snorkeling gear. There is a large grocery store a few blocks away, and although the beach is about 2 miles, it is a short bike ride and worth it. There is great food close by as well. Make sure to grab some tamales at night from local vendors, get the crazy cheap taco deals from the neighborhood restaurants and treat yourself to a fried plantain with sweet cream from the very nice man at the square. We loved Puertos Morelos and would come back to Buenos Dias in a heartbeat!

"Wonderful Stay!!!"

For the budget minded traveller, this is an absolute gem. The rooms are basic, but very clean and comfortable. The owner is a lovely woman who goes out of her way to make guests feel at home. The location is in the town of Puerto Morelos, and beach access is a quick (and cheap) bus ride or a 2 mile walk. I highly recommend this location for a cultural experience that feels more genuine than your typical Riviera Maya hotel.

We only stayed here one night to transition into "Vidanta....HYPER-MEGA resort" the following day. Let me just say, we wish we had stayed here INSTEAD of at "Vidanta". EVA is one of the kindest, most hospitable, caring people on earth. She epitomizes the friendly nature of the people of Mexico. Her place is humble with lovely personal touches & sufficient to meet our needs in every respect. We highly recommend supporting the local community wherever we travel. Our 'experience' at "Vidanta" was a first & very LAST at a hyper-mega resort. Just felt so very WRONG...but Buenos Dias b&b was just so RIGHT. This is what 'living like a local' is like & we so appreciated Eva's kindness & generosity. Breakfast was super fresh, healthy, sufficient & delicious. We also loved the town of Puerto Morelos...just beautiful & tranquil. Would stay here again in a heartbeat. Muchisimas gracias, Eva!

We were only there 1 night, but the next morning it started raining hard. Bernardo offered to take us to the airport for 1/2 the price I paid to get from the airport. He wasn't necessarily doing it for money. He knew what the roads might do based on the amount of rain. Extremely helpful and appreciated.

Bed was EXTREMELY firm and shower cold were the only concerns. I trusted him so much that he's taking me to experience a Cenote before I leave.

we had a very nice stay. The owners are very helpfull and do everything to make you comfortable. No effort is too much. The breackfast is luxery and you can pick up fruit the whole day long. There are bikes to use without a lock. The town is very safe and you can go on the bike without a lock, even to the beach or supermarket. You are not close to the beach but or with bcicle or with cap, they call the cab, you are quick there and it is easy to stay at the beach. You also can borrow the snorkel stuff and flooting devise. There is a fridge for the guests to use, so we made a cold diner with cold white wine. And I enjoyed driving the bike through the village where the mexcians live and everybody is very friendly and they don't let you pay more than the people that live there. So we had a very nice stay. Thanks Eva and Bernardo, Margo

The owners were welcoming, friendly, informative, and genuinely cared that you enjoyed your stay in their home. They actually upgraded my room at no expense to me. The atmosphere was pleasant and I had many interesting conversations with people from around the world. The rooms were clean and comfortable and the breakfast delicious.

We choosed this place because we wanted a place close to the airport after a long haul flight.

Very nice host and secure parking at the B&B, had a big, clean room with A/C, didn't stay for breakfast because we woke up real early and had a long drive ahead of us, so we left way before breakfast was served.
