NEWS POST – December 2011

HAPPY HOLIDAY SEASON Greetings! . . .               Recent medical studies have proven being in the ocean and near a beach, inhaling the negative ions in the air found at a beach, improves not only your spirits but your mental, physical and emotional health.  Is there a better beach to experience these rejuvenating (yes, scientists feel prolonged beach stays will also make you look and feel younger!) positive forces then on the long, wide beach of Puerto Morelos !  What are you waiting for?  Winter is already here in parts of North America and Europe and the rest of the country is already dreary with oncoming winter.  Ditch the sweaters, boots, and fur-lined gloves next to your snow shovel this winter and replace them with swimsuits, sunscreen, shrimp tacos and margaritas.

Plan a vacation stay in the beautiful village of Puerto Morelos, Mexico located just a 20 minutes ride south of Cancun airport. Capture a bit of beach paradise in a private vacation home or at a resort in the incomparable village of Puerto Morelos located at the northern edge of the Riviera Maya.
