Uber in Puerto Morelos

Postby Newps » Thu Mar 05, 2026 9:29 pm

In April my wife and I will be staying the first night at Hotel Ojo de Agua in Puerto Morelos which is only about a mile from Pearl. Is it easy to get an Uber for this trip?

I will say, we've never done it but have friends that do it often. You may not be able to get an "X" but XL's are readily available for a minor difference in price.

I don't care about which Uber but I figure it has to be way cheaper than getting USA Transfers for that short trip.

You can go into your app and select Puerto Morelos and set your pick-up point and destination and see real time availability and rates.

Uber is widely available in the Pearl area. Nonexistent in the RM area unless you get lucky and someone just got dropped off at a resort nearby.

There are tons of local taxis in PM that will make the trip even cheaper. Nice people too! Once we’re at Pearl or in PM, we use local taxis!

Taxi's were great. Used them a couple of times. Nice to support the locals.

Taxis are available everywhere in the main traffic areas in towns like Puerta Morelos or Puerta de Carmen. Or just ask the doorman at the hotel you are staying in to get you one. Always been friendly, reliable and reasonable and you can pay with dollars. Taxis are so easy, Never found uber to be necessary.
