Wake to the Caribbean a few steps from your door, on the calm, reef-sheltered water that makes Puerto Morelos feel like the Riviera Maya before the crowds arrived. Casitas Blanca is a furnished, 2-bedroom, 2-bath oceanfront home — 160 m² (about 1,720 sq ft), built in 2013 — inside a small gated community, listed at $13.8M MXN (roughly $745,000 USD). It is a finished, titled home you can walk through today, not a pre-construction promise.
What makes it rare is the lock-off layout: keep the main residence for your own winters and rent the self-contained second suite to the steady stream of travelers who come for the reef and the village calm. Puerto Morelos is the quiet middle of the Riviera Maya — a working fishing town with a walkable square, a real expat and Québécois community, and Cancún's international airport about 30 minutes up the road.
Foreigners own here securely every day. Title is held in a fideicomiso — a 50-year, renewable bank trust in which you are the full beneficiary: you can live in it, rent it, renovate it, sell it, and leave it to your heirs. It is ownership, not a lease. Before any money moves, the registered escritura is verified at the public registry, you close with a named notario through escrow (never a wire to a personal account), and you are welcome to bring your own independent lawyer. We will welcome the scrutiny.
A few honest notes: this is an established 2013 home, not a brand-new build, and the HOA runs about $5,000 MXN/month. Plan for all-in closing costs of roughly 5–8%, a one-time trust setup, and a modest annual fideicomiso fee; when you sell, Mexico applies a capital-gains tax that residency or an RFC can reduce. Puerto Morelos's offshore reef keeps this shoreline among the calmest and clearest in the region, with minimal sargassum compared with the open-coast beaches south of here.
