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.
Papaya Playa Project A Member of Design Hotels
My stay at Papaya Playa Project was absolutely unforgettable. From the moment I arrived, the vibe was unlike anything else—a perfect blend of nature, art, and contemporary design that instantly set the tone. The room was immaculate, with authentic decor that captured the hotel’s bohemian yet sophisticated essence. The event hosted by Jan Blomqvist was the cherry on top—vibrant music, creative installations, and an atmosphere charged with energy and freshness. Lighting, layout, and overall ambiance created a truly magical experience. The private pool overlooking the ocean, plus the thoughtfully designed outdoor spaces and common areas, made it easy to unwind and disconnect from everyday life. Staff were attentive without being overbearing, ensuring everything flowed smoothly. This place isn’t just a hotel—it’s a destination for those seeking both relaxation and unforgettable moments. If you're looking for a unique escape where luxury, nature, and art come together, this is it. Highly recommend.
CervecerIa Tulum Boutique Hotel & Beer Spa
I absolutely loved the concept and vibe of Cervecería Tulum Boutique Hotel & Beer Spa—it’s such a peaceful retreat with a unique, authentic charm. From the moment I arrived, Marco and Abraham made me feel welcome and truly cared for, which made my solo trip even more special. I came here to unwind and celebrate my birthday, and they went above and beyond to make it unforgettable—thoughtful touches, great recommendations, and genuine hospitality that really stood out. The property is beautifully designed with a cool beer-themed aesthetic, perfect for photos, and the two pools are serene and refreshing. It's quiet, intimate, and feels like a hidden gem. If you're looking for a relaxing getaway with character and personal attention, this place is a must-visit. Truly exceptional service and a memorable stay—I’d come back in a heartbeat.
Nômade Temple Tulum
The vibe at Nômade Temple Tulum is absolutely on point—chill, authentic, and full of character. Located just steps from the beach and within easy reach of Tulum’s main attractions, it’s perfect for travelers who want convenience without sacrificing tranquility. The rooms are beautifully designed with a minimalist, earthy aesthetic—spacious, airy, and incredibly comfortable. I loved how each space felt connected to nature, from the natural materials to the soft lighting. The staff were warm and attentive, making check-in smooth and welcoming. Even the breakfast was a highlight—fresh local ingredients with a creative touch. Overall, this was one of the most memorable stays I’ve had in Mexico. A true gem that delivers on every level. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a peaceful yet stylish escape.
K'Uyen Boutique Hotel
This place feels like a true escape from the everyday hustle. From the moment you step in, you’re greeted with calm and charm—nestled between the beach and main street, it’s perfectly positioned for exploring without sacrificing peace. The property is thoughtfully designed around trees and an open central courtyard, creating a serene atmosphere that’s hard to beat. My room (the Kasa) was stunning—spacious, stylish, with a huge bed, a luxurious shower, a coffee machine, and everything you’d want for a comfortable stay. The rooftop pool and bar area are perfect for unwinding with a drink while soaking in the sunset views. Breakfast was delicious and filling, and the staff went above and beyond—especially Omar, who made every interaction warm and welcoming. It’s rare to find a hotel that nails both comfort and character, but this one absolutely does. I left feeling refreshed and already planning my return. Highly recommend! 🌿
Pacha Tulum
Staying at Pacha Tulum was absolutely fantastic across the board. The location is unbeatable—just a short walk to the ancient ruins and an easy stroll into town. The hotel itself is stunning, with so much attention to detail that makes you feel truly pampered. The staff were incredibly friendly and helpful, always offering great suggestions and going the extra mile. From the moment we arrived to the time we checked out, everything felt seamless and special. I’d definitely come back without hesitation—this place truly stands out.
Kore Tulum Retreat and Spa Resort - Adults Only
I’ve always worked my way up from 3-star stays to luxury hotels over the years, and this past weekend trip was no exception—especially since I was being mindful of post-Christmas spending. That’s why I decided to take a chance on Kore Tulum Retreat despite all the negative reviews online. Honestly, those one-star ratings feel completely unfair. The rooms were spacious, spotlessly clean, and incredibly comfortable. The location offered stunning sea views and a peaceful vibe—perfect for unwinding. I only had breakfast since I love exploring local spots, so I can’t speak much to the overall food quality. But the staff were excellent: as soon as I sat down, my coffee was poured. Once they noticed I tipped, I never had to wait in line for my omelets—haha! The real highlight was Victor, the front desk concierge. He looked like he stepped out of a Mexican soap opera and was consistently kind, helpful, and attentive. When I checked out with a late flight, he remembered I loved biking and let me keep my access bracelet until my shuttle arrived. That small gesture made a big difference. Yes, English-speaking staff were limited—something I experienced throughout Tulum—but it wasn’t unique to this property. If judged by strict AAA standards, this place might earn a 3–3.5 star rating, but most booking platforms would likely give it a solid 4. It’s not a Hyatt, but it delivers great value for what you get. Don’t let the one-star reviews scare you off—this is a genuinely nice stay if you’re looking for a calm, adults-only retreat with good service and a lovely ocean outlook.
Alaya Tulum
The service was absolutely outstanding, and the facilities were top-notch—everything was clean, modern, and well-maintained. Unfortunately, the ocean was covered in algae during our stay, which made swimming less enjoyable than expected. Despite that small setback, the overall experience was exceptional. The ambiance is serene, the staff are incredibly friendly and attentive, and the location offers a peaceful retreat. I’d definitely return without hesitation—this place truly stands out.
El Paraiso Hotel Tulum
This hotel sits on one of the most beautiful stretches of beach along the Riviera Maya, and it truly lives up to the hype. If you're looking for a peaceful, secluded escape surrounded by nature, this is the perfect spot. The property is located within a protected reserve, so having your own vehicle is highly recommended—or at least being okay with being a bit removed from the main town center. That said, the trade-off is absolutely worth it: pristine sands, tranquil vibes, and an authentic connection to the local landscape. Whether you're watching the sunrise over the Caribbean or enjoying a quiet evening stroll, every moment feels special. It’s not just a stay—it’s a true getaway. 10/10, without hesitation.
Hotel Piedra Escondida
This little gem of a hotel was absolutely charming. We truly enjoyed our stay from start to finish. The property features its own private beach, which is a big plus—though we happened to visit during sargassum season, so we couldn’t use the shoreline. That said, the staff were incredibly welcoming and helpful, the rooms were clean and well-maintained, and the overall atmosphere was peaceful and authentic. Located just a short walk from town, it’s perfect for travelers who want a quiet retreat with easy access to local attractions. Despite the seasonal challenge, we’d definitely return and recommend this hidden paradise to anyone looking for a genuine, relaxing getaway in Tulum.
Tunich Jungle Cabañas
Tunich Jungle Cabañas is an absolute gem nestled right at the entrance of Tulum's hotel zone, just a 50-meter walk from the beach—perfect for those who want easy access to the sand without sacrificing tranquility. The rustic-style cabanas are cozy and thoughtfully designed, offering a true escape into nature with a peaceful vibe that instantly helps you unwind. The staff goes above and beyond with warm, attentive service—always smiling, always ready to help. And the restaurant? Outstanding! Fresh, delicious food at very reasonable prices. It’s clear they care about guest experience at every level. Whether you’re here for a romantic getaway or a quiet retreat, this place delivers everything you’d hope for in a Tulum stay—authentic, relaxing, and full of charm.
