The property was beautiful and serene. Direct contrast to the hotel zone of Tulúm. However if you want to visit the beach area for the restaurants and night life, taxis are $40 USD one way so know that in advance. Most of our money was spent on taxis traveling back and forth. However if you plan to travel off the resort minimally this location is perfect. The staff was friendly and accommodating. Our bed was extremely hard the first night. We reported it to the concierge and the next day they added a pillow top quilt which greatly improved the comfort. My one negative about the resort was they charged me for a towel secondary to a minor blood stain which I thought was unreasonable. After voicing my concern they charged me $10 instead of $20 which I was annoyed by. Nonetheless beautiful property that I would return to for a serene getaway.

PROS: The staff was absolutely amazing, kind and attentative. I loved that we were able to reach out to them through whatsapp for all of our needs including removing a baby lizard from my room! :0) CONS: 1. We stayed in the 3 bedroom luxury house. While beautiful, the living and dining room furniture were not comfortable to sit on. The chairs in the living room were difficult to get in and out of and the dining room stools were low to the ground and very small. 2. The pictures do not make it clear that the downstairs bathroom inside of the bedroom is COMPLETELY OPEN to the outdoors. Because of this we could not use it and kept towels stuffed under the door to block any insects from getting in. It would be nice to either enclose the outer wall in glass or at least offer a net covering.

Excellent property which is slightly let down by its location on the edge of Tulum. There is very little in the way of amenities near to the hotel. However, if you accept that this means you will use the hotel’s restaurant/dining, it is extremely expensive - on a par with London prices. No Expedia VIP incentives were offered.

Secret oasis in the jungle
Wonderful hidden gem. Very well designed for privacy for the rooms. Stayed in second floor suite and it was spacious, beautifully decorated and private. Guido the concierge was exceptional. Very friendly, well spoken and thoughtful, taking care of every last detail perfectly. The bartender from Veracruz in Bardo created a warm, friendly environment that made you want to stay for another drink. I had an amazing Reiki session and also participated in the Temezcal, which is not for the faint of heart. Great stay! Would return and recommend.
