Casa Malca
I’ve been back from Tulum for almost a week now, and yet every time I pause between meetings, my mind drifts back to the unforgettable moments at Casa Malca. This was a spontaneous trip—no long planning, no detailed research. I’d browsed through luxury hotels, those with top-tier service, and highly rated properties, but none really spoke to me. Then I stumbled upon Casa Malca on Xiaohongshu—a few posts, but the photos immediately stood out. It wasn’t flashy or mainstream. Instead, it felt like a quiet museum by the sea: minimalist, artistic, deeply atmospheric. There was something about it that screamed ‘escape’—and I knew instantly, this was the one. I booked three nights on the spot. Driving two hours from Cancún, I arrived tired and still carrying the weight of city life. I walked into the property with my guard up, still in serious mode. But as I made my way toward the lobby, the vibe shifted—calm, mysterious, immersive. And then came Yair, the front desk staff, whose warm, genuine smile (and striking looks!) instantly melted my stress. He greeted me like an old friend. This trip was actually for my birthday—a solo celebration—and the hotel had arranged a room upgrade and thoughtful touches I hadn’t even expected. It felt less like a booking and more like being welcomed into a private sanctuary. The breakfast was unreal: a perfectly cooked egg white omelette bursting with fresh, vibrant vegetables, beautifully presented. Even though I don’t usually eat pastries, the staff brought over a slice of carrot cake—so moist and rich, I ended up loving it. The pool area is stunningly designed, intimate, and full of character. Casa Malca feels tailor-made for weddings or small gatherings—there’s a real sense of privacy and ownership. But what truly made the experience special was Yair. His kindness wasn’t performative—it was real, thoughtful, and full of heart. In an age where hotels are competing on design and amenities, it’s the human touch that lingers. That authentic warmth? That’s the secret ingredient. Casa Malca isn’t just a place to stay—it’s a moment of peace, beauty, and joy. I’ll carry this memory with me long after the sun has set on Tulum.
Dreams Tulum Resort & Spa
The resort overall was an excellent experience—beautiful setting, great location, and friendly staff. However, there were a few areas that could use improvement. Several restaurants only opened on a rotating basis, with just two available daily, so we couldn’t try all the dining options. That said, it’s disappointing for a property of this caliber. More concerning was the cleanliness issue near our room—guests from the adjacent unit kept ordering meals, and leftover food was left in the hallway for days. A fork remained on the stairs for four full days with no one picking it up. The poolside snack bar served burgers and light bites for one day but was completely closed for two others while we were at the pool. Instead of service, we found scattered food remnants where birds were feeding, and no staff appeared to clean up. Only late in the afternoon did someone show up to collect the trash—but they didn’t even wipe down the counters or clean the grills. These lapses are hard to overlook for a resort that markets itself as top-tier. Despite these shortcomings, the rest of the stay was fantastic. With tighter operational oversight, this place could easily be flawless.
La Zebra Tulum, a Small Luxury Hotel
Staying at La Zebra Tulum was an absolute highlight of my trip to Tulum. The location is perfect—parking is right across the street, so no stress about finding a spot. It’s just a 2-minute walk to the beach, which is wide, quiet, and rarely crowded—perfect for catching that breathtaking sunrise. My balcony was surrounded by lush greenery, making it the ideal spot to relax with a drink or just soak up the sun. I was pleasantly surprised by how peaceful the evenings were compared to other hotels nearby. The double shower setup was a game-changer—my travel partner and I could both get ready at the same time without any hassle. They even provided three bottles of purified drinking water and a reusable tote bag for on-the-go use. Small touches like these made a big difference. This place truly sets the tone for your Tulum experience—authentic, serene, and full of charm. If you're looking for a peaceful yet luxurious stay, this is the one.
