Stay was amazing, check in/out, direction were clear and understandable. Everything was clean, AC worked great. All attractions are close. Can’t wait to go back !
They were like a little houses versus an actual, which was really nice. Ambients of the property is very cute. The pool is great and it’s the closest hotel to the beach.
Amazing hotel, Beautiful Tulum vibes look. it’s 1/2 a block away from the Malecon de El Tunco. Staff was polite and welcoming. Room was spacious, clean, hot water and excellent WiFi. Great AC.
Perfect location. We booked this place as a last minute option as everything was sold out or pricey for our budget, but it was clean and the air conditioning was excellent. I highly recommend it for the budget travelers.
The staff was really amazing. Really convenient. Clean us and over Very kind making sure. I was always OK. And if I needed anything, they were always there to help
Very conveniently located near restaurants and just a couple of steps from the beach. Nicely decorated rooms and the entire property was very clean.
The only downsides would probably be the limited hours of staff service and the loud surroundings during night times. I would definitely come back.
Great place to stay at. Staff is amazing with helping with any inconveniences rapidly. Walking distance to food, bars and beach. Facility was clean. Well recommended to anyone staying at El Tunco.
The place i stayed over exceeded what my expectations were. I really just need a place to crash after a night of drinking. It was safe, and very close to where i was. I will be going back to that place next year.
Great property for the convenience. We booked the luxury suite which offered a private bathroom and had a small living room area. For the price, it’s well worth it. Instructions are very clear and the staff was very helpful. Not much parking if you’re traveling with a large group.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
A clean and convenient place to stay right in el Tunco, walking distance to surf, shops, restaurants, etc. No hot water, but that is expected in the area. It was worth it to pay a little extra for a private bathroom. Pool was nice and clean with nice outdoor lounging areas. My only complaint is that the bed was mediocre for comfort.
Overall we had a great experience. The only concern we had was with the lock on the door as it would intermittently not lock. Trim on door had wood rot so I believe this was the issue. Other than that the location was super safe, cared for and very conveniently located.
Clean comfortable room , ac worked extremely good, hotel staff were great , pool was great. This hotel feels like a hidden gem in the middle of everything, I will definitely be back
