Disgusting hotel. I left after 1 night (was supposed to have 6 in total). I was having no water in the room. As a policy they shut it down between midnight to 6am every night. I was promised a refund but the hotel manager is not responding to Expedia and not answering the phone nor messages Stay away this place is a pure scam!!!!!!

If I could give 0 stars I would. No water between midnight to 6am. As a matter of policy, they simply turn it off. Described to me as a “little inconvenience” by the lady in the reception, who confirmed it’s every night like this. We booked 6 nights with this hotel and left after the first night. The morning after upon checking out I demanded to get a refund for the rest of the nights I was told By another receptionist that it’s just a one time thing, Don’t believe them if they tell you that it’s an issue that resolved, it’s not. I mean at least be honest with me and don’t lie! When I requested the refund they said I need to contact the agent I booked from - which was Expedia, which I did. They claim that the booking was done through “Hotel beds”, website I never heard of and claim they didn’t get any message from Expedia about my refund, thought I have chat screenshots and records of all communications with Expedia and with the hotel. Doesn’t look at all like the photos, very dirty and disappointing. Please, do yourself a favor, stay away!!!!!

ood morning Fenriquez We checked into Kore Tulum on Friday Jan. 3, 2025, during the check in process we were informed about the policy of lost keys and lost bracelets. However we were not informed about the water being turned off at certain time of the night. We left our room around 9pm and returned to the hotel with no running water, which is totally unacceptable. The hot tub was dirty and prior to leaving the hotel the water in the hot tub the water pressure was very low. Are returning to our room after a long night on vacation we were hit very a very uncomfortable unpleasant situation to not being able to take a shower. The front staff members inconveniently offered us to walk to another building in the late night to take a shower for 10 different people. This is not how I expected my vacation to be. This morning we asked to be changed to another building and room because the staff informed us that water will be shut off every night from 12am to 5am. Also the water temperature was cold this morning once the water was turned back on. We are requesting to be moved into new rooms where the water is not being shut off! The staff Sebastian stated the water is only turn off in building 1 and 2! This is not fair that we pay our money to stay and can’t enjoy and nice how shower once we come in from our night out. The shower towels were dirty the sheets! This was the worst hotel i have ever stayed in.

From the time of arrival my experience was horrible. They had my reservations wrong and refused to help resolve the issue. When I asked for management they again refused to allow me to speak with management the entire time. Once night fell and I wanted to shower from a long day of travel; there was no water. The staff stated they turn the water off every night until 5am. This was the most inconvenient thing I have ever heard of. The towels left in the room were dingy as ever. They basically looked black they were so nasty. The hot tub I had in the room for up charge did not work. I asked for a microwave and staff told me the microwave was in the restaurant and when I went to the restaurant who stated there is no microwave it’s broke. The entire resort was nasty, old and looks like it’s closed down. My entire stay was horrible. I am requesting a refund for my stay as I have discussed with the resort staff as well.

This property was so awful that me and my family checked out after just one night. The towels were not clean, nor were the rooms. "Room Service" did not exist. I took pictures of the clumps of chlorine in the pool. Two restaurants were advertised; the hotel only had one. The list of problems with the place is endless. It is fraudulent of Expedia to advertise this hotel the way that it does. There should be laws against this.

The property has potential if the hotelanagers or administration would invest in the up keep. Food was very limited, no activities directly from the hotel, you needed to book with another hotel in order to do activities. The staff was really friendly and very respectful and willing to accommodate, but they can't help the limitations that they are up against.

Not what we expected. The check in process left a lot to be desired, we were not provided any instructions on the hotel (such as dining hours, pool towels or wifi) or given a map. After being led to our room, we found it had only been partially cleaned before our arrival. Stains were present on the furniture, the lock was broken on the door etc. During our stay we had to phone the front desk for multiple issues in the room (AC stopped working, water leaking through the roof) and we did have a prompt response to those concerns. The majority of staff were absolutely lovely. The grounds were well maintained despite the buildings themselves being a little run down. We found that the pool bar was only manned occasionally leading to some difficulties getting drinks throughout the day. The website for the hotel lists three different restaurants, however it is really one restaurant with three different menus that vary throughout the week. There was no buffet, it was all food that had to be ordered. Also, not once in our week long stay did they have all items lists on the menu.

Our experience here was better than average based on the reviews. For travel on a budget, we had a great time. There were plenty of things that didn't work, or weren't available, but I found myself enjoying the things that did and were. We had some standout staff members who were super friendly, like Faustino and Fernando, that made us some of the best margaritas we have ever drank! The food we had was flavourful, served quickly, and felt good to eat (no sickness here). The room was comfortable, clean, and quiet, even during the storm that came in through the week. The downsides were mostly that some of the facilities need maintenance. Our AC didn't work, and neither did the jets in our jacuzzi (though it did get clean hot water!). Apart from that there were some limited options when it came to food, even running out of beer entirely for a day. A few more staff, more frequent restocking, and some maintenance would have made this trip a 5/5. For the price we paid, with the expectations we had, I would recommend Kore to anyone traveling for all-inclusive on a budget.

Very old and outdated. The property needs a lot of maintenance. The staff is great and responsive. Many of the problems are out of their control. The food was good, but all of the deserts we had were not very good. A lot of gym equipment is broken. It seems like a very neglected place and it used to be a great place to come. Again, the staff are amazing. Check out more recent reviews of this place before staying. I think we came at the beginning of the season and they were getting everything ready and back in the swing of things.

Kore is a very big resort but not a lot of people. If you're looking for something fun this isn't the place. It's more for an older crowd. Everything was nice besides the food. It's only 1 restaurant on the resort it serves breakfast lunch & dinner but the food isn't good.
