I liked enough to extend my stay 5 days

Being just outside the town, and with free bike hire it was perfect. Set right on the beach, huge bed on ropes, the staff were super helpful in arranging day trips, and in advice about how to get around. I would definitely stay here again.

Loved to communal kitchen and the breakfast spread.

What a unique and beautiful place! Rooms are clean and staff is super friendly and helpful. Breakfast is delicious. It is located just under a mile south of the center of Puerto Morelos where you will find a beautiful public beach, snorkeling, shopping and many amazing restaurants. Strongly recommend borrowing the free bicycles to get back and forth - so much fun! Honestly wouldn't want to stay anywhere else!

This is the second time we stay at Rancho Sak-ol. This is not a place for everyone due to it's secluded location and a bit inconvenient when you need to go to town. However it is exactly what we're looking for. It's like going to a retreat with our very own private beach. We were here during the rain season so we had to time our activities a little bit. The upstairs 20 feet from the beach is great. It has enough breeze during the hot day that you can relax watching boats passing by. It also has great wi-fi signal. It's even better than what we have in all-inclusive hotel in Cancun we stayed. Overall, you need to know what you want to get out of your vacation before booking this hotel. You could either have a really relaxing time or bad time if you have the wrong expectations. Do your homework.

This property is unique and quirky and has potential but it needs a lot of TLC. It’s no frills, very basic. The bathroom is unappealing. The breakfast is the same everyday and if you want eggs you have to make them yourself. The kitchen is very old and needs a good cleaning. The location is nice because it’s on the water but you need to either take a taxi or ride a bike into town if you don’t have a car. Definitely NOT worth the money I paid. Wouldn’t go back.

The property was tucked away off of a main road. You can easily get lost. There was barely any room for parking. There was no easy access to the beach. Very hot and sticky feeling. A/C unit and fan didn't work well or give off much air. The room door is simply a screen with a key. All of the area's small creatures and wildlife have access to your room. There's no TV or other source of entertainment once it gets dark. Wi-fi was spotty. If you want to stay in a tree house while on vacation, this is the perfect place. If you don't mind hard/rough towels, also, the place for you. If you wanted food after 10a, you have to purchase, cook, and clean for yourself. I was told I could share a refrigerator w/the staff b/c the other 3 were broken. Checked in and checked out same day. I asked for a partial refund and still haven't received a response.

Honest un pretentious no frills stay , yet comfortable away from the noisy crowd

Amazing little hotel on the beach surrounded with greenery relaxing atmosphere friendly management and staff. 5 min. by bike (offered by hotel) to nearby little town or 15 min. on foot. Smartly equipped shared kitchen which we loved. Guaranteed no disappointment here.

This Inn isn’t for everyone. And that wonderful!! It’s for those seeking a very quiet, somewhat hidden, oceanfront hideaway.

Nice staff. Can't walk in the beach into Puerto Morales because of the port. You either have to bike or drive in on a dark slightly dangerous road (risk of getting hit by a car). The beach in front of the hotel was so-so. They have a common kitchen area which was super nice. Breakfast is from 8-10 and they don't really make any exceptions if you have to leave earlier. The fridge and kitchen is open 7a-10p and again they make no exceptions if you need to get stuff out of the fridge before or after that. The room was nice, had a bed that was suspended on ropes! Nice bathroom. Spacious rooms.

It was a Great hotel to relax in a peaceful setting. Dont miss out on this hidden gem.

One of a kind hotel breakfasts is social and you can prepare it by yourself with the advantage of not cleaning anything afterward.The room is beautiful with a big terrace and very quite and relaxing although it is little away from the town but in 5 to 10 minutes you’re there

Rancho Sak-Ol, despite the funny name, was a hidden gem. The upstairs room was clean and simple. Guests need to come up front to the beachside pulapa for breakfast, which was awesome, and to see the beach which is essentially private as it is a long way from Pto. Morelos and the big resorts to the south. The sargassum was bad and the water unswimmable due to rocks and weeds. Lots of bikes to borrow and you can ride them on the beach in Pto. Morelos. I would stay here again.

The location is lovely, surrounded by beautiful gardens. Love that you can use the kitchen to fix your own meals and have space in the refrigerator. The breakfasts are very nice--great choice of fruits, cereals, bread and jams, pastries, and eggs. All the staff were very kind and helpful!

What a gem!!! Secluded, so you have to take a taxi or one of the bicycles. I will DEFINITELY return to this property!! LOVED IT!!

Great place to retreat and enjoy the ocean. Listening to the waves all night. Wonderful room with breakfast and use of huge kitchen

Great location, very friendly staff, extremely relaxing, great community feel, bikes were great to ride into town, great breakfast with ocean view.

Charming accommodations. I would have preferred a cabin that wasn't directly on the driveway and was a little disappointed with the view. When electing a more expensive "beach front" view, I was expecting the beach to be directly in front. Instead I was kind of off to the side with a view of some ocean, but also an ugly metal fence and driveway. I would have loved to be able to walk along the beach to the town, but was very appreciative of the bicycles available for use. They were in great condition and town was just a few minutes away. I was a little disappointed by the condition of the beach, but at no fault to the owners of the hotel. I like to run in the morning and the beach was not a very good option; instead I was relegated to running on the road. Breakfast was great- lots of fresh fruit, fresh squeezed juice, yoghurt, cereal, bread, eggs and lots more. Although my room was advertised as sleeping 3 people, it would have been extremely crowded. I found it quite suitable for one person. As there was nowhere to keep clothing, other than about 7 hangers I used the single bed as storage for my things. Perhaps some hooks or drawers? Front desk staff were friendly and helpful. I found the photos to be accurate representations of the facility, with the exception of the "ocean view" from my room. Although I enjoyed my stay overall, I will likely not return to Puerto Morelo- just not enough to see and do (compared to other areas of Mexico I am familiar with).

I arrived with my husband at this god forgotten place on earth and we literally run away, because this so called hotel is a spider hole! Like literally! Never seen nothing more dirty, creepy and bugs crawl everywhere! Coming straight out from a horror movie! Plus it’s hidden in the jungle, and so sketchy, no one speaks English and the girl who is at the front desk is so rude and when she finally understood that we didn’t want to stay there, she started yelling all sort of bad things in Spanish. End of story. Stay away!

Our stay was quaint, quiet, and relaxed. The hotel location was ideal, but very peaceful.

Rancho Sak-Ol is a jewel of the Mayan Riviera. My husband and I so enjoyed that there are only 13 rooms. The staff were lovely and friendly. The breakfasts were terrific, and the kitchen facilities available for preparing lunch and supper are excellent. It’s a very private hotel and It is only a twenty minute walk from Puerto Morelos. We would come back again and will recommend the hotel to everyone we know.

Pleasant stay. Hotel staff were very friendly! Nice quite beach front.

This place was perfect for those who are visiting and plan on exploring the town and going on excursions in the Yucatán. Everyone was super friendly, helpful, informative, and just pleasant all around!! Hoping to come back some day !!! Excellent stay loved it.
