As usual it is tough to put something over on an informed consumer. We are staying at Secrets Excellence next week and will be coming to and from Playa by taxi. This website has a rate of $220 pesos to Puerto Morelos; throw in another $30 pesos to get to and from Secrets each way and I am looking at about $25.00 U.S. each way plus tip. Seeing as it is about a 40km drive taking about half an hour, if asked to, I'd pay $40.00 - $50.00 and think nothing of it. This assumes the drivers are corrupt and, from the info on this site, the vast majority are not. So, thanks to the info on this site and the people on the boards, we know roughly what the costs are, potentially saving money for the important things such as cold cervezas.

the taxi rate sheet on this site does not apply to airport taxis, which have their own (higher) rates. I don't have a rate sheet for them. If someone could grab one for me, that would be cool. I'll publish it.
