Home with Rooftop Terrace & Pool, 3 King Beds, 3min to Beach, Restaurants, Shops

There is nothing quite like watching the sunrise over the ocean… except perhaps, after a long day at the beach, watching the sunset over the jungle. From the rooftop terrace of Casa Perros Afortunados - the House of the Lucky Dogs - you can do both, AND you can also sunbathe with privacy and cool down in the rooftop plunge pool.

With its treetop view of the mangrove jungle on one side, and the ocean view on the other, Casa Perros Afortunados offers our guests a beautiful placeto say, with all the amenities you might need while on holiday. A 3,000sf private house in the quaint fishing village of Puerto Morelos, Mexico just 20 minutes from the Cancun airport, Casa Perros Afortunados is ready to welcome you.

Just a short stroll to the beach, a four-minute walk to restaurants, and steps to the town square where shopping, markets, and all the action happens, the House of the Lucky Dogs is situated perfectly. Puerto Morelos is still a colorful and traditional village with neighborhood roosters, local street produce stalls, and fishermen selling their fresh catch. It is a wonderful place where locals and visitors mingle effortlessly.

You can visit the Frutaria (fruits and veggies) across the way, and the Carniceria (meat shop) down the road, along with your neighbours, or there's always the big grocery store by the square. You can share the lively nights of music at the restaurants nearby where the main street is closed to traffic at night, and chairs and tables line the road. Everyone enjoys their meals with fairy lights overhead and both traditional music and songs of the 70's-2000s playing. You can experience it all and still have a wonderful place of your own to relax.

The house is designed with comfort in mind while still presenting guests with interesting and creative elements. Handmade masks, woven baskets, bright colours, and well-placed wall hangings mean that Casa Perros Afortunados will delight everyone who enters.

The functionality of the house has been given every attention. The fully equipped kitchen, which includes a five-burner gas stove with griddle, is spacious and offers seating at the granite-topped island peninsula. We have a reverse osmosis water filtration system, blender for those icy beverages, microwave for quick warm-ups, coffee maker for your mornings, and every imaginable utensil for when you decide to cook up a little something. You can enjoy a relaxed meal at the island or gather around the dining room table, which seats up to eight. And if you don't want to cook but don't feel like going to a local restaurant, we have two wonderful chef options for you, both of whom are amazing cooks with incredibly reasonable prices.

In the sitting room is a comfortable sectional couch, ottoman, and three armchairs, lit by beautifully woven local basket lights. The open concept main floor means that hopping up to refill your beverage doesn’t mean a pause in conversation.

The second floor Media Room has a smart TV, and is connected to Expat TV which offers every show, sport, or movie, shown live from the US, Canada, or the UK. We even have a DVD player and movies for you, and comfortable lounge seating, providing a place for relaxed viewing on those quieter nights. And if you really need to work, the room also has a long desk for your use. Wifi is strong and fast!

When the day is done, you can find rest in one of the three bedrooms, all of which have high-quality king-sized beds. The second-floor bedrooms are identical master suites that each offer ensuite bathrooms, and large, private balconies. The main floor bedroom has big windows with lots of light, and the full bathroom is adjacent to the room. It is situated off the living room area so provides easy access to all the main floor amenities. All our bedrooms come with white noise makers for light sleepers.

When you arrive at Casa Perros Afortunados, you can enter via the secure gate and park your vehicle inside. The gardens surrounding the property are lush and offer a beautiful setting for relaxing with friends and family. A covered patio overlooks the rear garden and includes an outdoor ping pong table for those friendly competitions.

The local community loves their dogs and, being a House of Lucky Dogs means we will gladly also welcome your dog family members! We request that they not be over 30lbs though and that they not take any dips in the pool.

Puerto Morelos offers an amazing array of activities: dive or snorkel along the coral reef (a protected national park and part of the world's second largest coral reef), sport fishing in the Caribbean, in-home private massages, biking, golfing, beautiful underground cenotes with crystal clear water, or short drives to shopping and nightlife in Cancun or Playa del Carmen.

We can connect you to all of it through our wonderful local guides and service people. Just ask! We strive to offer you the best possible holiday and will gladly support your planning.

This is a beautiful property in the heart of a Mexican seaside town. Our neighbourhood is safe and people are friendly. We truly have the best of both worlds: excellent restaurants, live music, and amenities that appeal to visitors, while also having the privilege of local neighbours on either side of us. This is a beautiful area that mingles visitors with locals, and the sounds and experiences of real life in Mexico are authentic. We back onto the jungle so you may see harmless and sweet coati families hanging out in the trees, and on top of our laundry room in the back garden where it's sunny and warm for them (no they don't approach you). We often hear a rooster in the morning (we call him Ramon). This is town life here in Mexico and we urge you to come and enjoy both the luxuries available to visitors and the regular way of life lived by our community.

We look forward to welcoming you to Casa Perros Afortunados: The House of the Lucky Dogs!
