Great place to stay in Tulum if you want to be near Bagatelle and Ilios, Bombonniere, etc. Ahau is close enough to these places you can walk to, but far enough for you not to hear the loud music all night. Truly great!

It’s a nice property but we never got room key message till after 430pm. Hotel is nice. Bed is comfortable. I would have given it 5/5 but if you want to sleep forget it, loud boom boom music till 3am. Even with plugs in you can hear it. Nearly checked out at 2am as I was going crazy. Did report it. Butt same thing next night. It’s a good Instagram place but shocking if you want sleep.

We were so disappointed about the service. Upon arrival the staff said do you want a welcome drink as he forgot to asked when we reached the office. There was no warmth at all! Air conditioning kept going off and had to keep msgning them to put it on! After cleaning our room there was no fresh towel given to us. On the 4th of july a hurricane was expected. We are pressured to check out at 11am then it came to 10 30 am when they check out was at 12! The staff was sitting in our patio and outside our door being so noisy and disrespectful. On the 3rd of july they said they will send a complimentary bottle of wine which never came for my Husband's birthday celebration. Worst is my card was charged without my consent as they were in a rush to leave! This is unacceptable! STAFF has to be trained to be more respectful and noisy! Food quality isn't Great! On the 3rd morning, staff was making so much noise on top of our villa cleaning up. Very disappointing!

The resort is great for those who really love to live in the jungle. I disliked the humidity in the room which was always at an all time high no matter what we did with the AC. Our room sliding doors when it would rain would leak rain water in the room that didn’t help with the humidity either and made the room smell bad. The facility needs upgrades as you can tell the wood is getting worn out. Food was ok, we ate better at other locations. Location of the hotel is a great one as it’s right next to the statue of the Luz and other great restaurants such as Rosa Negra and Ilios. I would not stay here again due to the rooms needing some serious upgrades to make your stay and sleep more comfortable.
