3-Bedroom Beachfront Home in Puerto Morelos

Direct Caribbean access, fully furnished — one of the Riviera Maya’s most authentic coastal addresses.

This elegant three-bedroom beachfront home in the northern area of Puerto Morelos is listed at $1,200,000 USD (approximately $20,640,000 MXN). The property offers 215 m² (2,852 sq ft) of construction on a 10 x 60 m (6,458 sq ft) beachfront lot, with 2.5 bathrooms, a private pool, and a separate guest casita. It is fully furnished and sold as seen. The home steps directly onto the beach — the Caribbean is accessible from the terrace without leaving the property.

What makes this Puerto Morelos beachfront home a well-positioned asset?

Puerto Morelos occupies a rare position on the Riviera Maya coast — it sits between Cancún and Playa del Carmen, with direct highway access to both, yet it has retained the character of a genuine fishing village. The northern stretch where this property sits is particularly quiet, away from the town center and its tourist infrastructure, which gives the home a degree of privacy and natural setting that is increasingly difficult to find on the Caribbean coast at any price point. At $5,581 USD/m² ($421/sq ft) for direct beachfront construction, the property is priced in line with Puerto Morelos’s established beachfront market — a segment that has historically shown resilience due to the scarcity of true beachfront lots in a town where development has been deliberately controlled. The guest casita adds a second rentable unit with some improvements and repositioning, creating a dual-income configuration within the same beachfront footprint. The transferable hurricane insurance policy with AXA at $1,300 USD per year is a practical advantage — securing equivalent coverage for a new beachfront policy in this zone typically costs significantly more.

What is Puerto Morelos and why do buyers consistently choose it?

Puerto Morelos is one of the few towns on the Riviera Maya that has maintained its authentic character through decades of regional development. It has a small central plaza, a working fishing pier, independent restaurants, local shops, and a reef that has been designated a marine national park — the Puerto Morelos Reef National Park — which limits development on the beachfront and protects the water quality and marine life that define the town’s appeal. Residents are a mix of long-term expats, Mexican families, and international second-home owners who value the quiet over the activity of Playa del Carmen or Tulum. The recently paved road serving this property improves access and is a signal of the ongoing infrastructure investment in the northern corridor. Downtown Puerto Morelos is a short drive away, and Cancún International Airport is approximately 30 minutes north. Foreign nationals can purchase beachfront property in Puerto Morelos with full ownership rights. The right legal and ownership structure depends on the buyer’s country of residence, tax situation, and intended use — Heron Real Estate provides personalized advisory on this as part of every acquisition.
