Amazing stay for nature lovers! It’s absolutley beautiful here the staff and very kind and helpful! They have so many unique private accommodations that all have their own charm! They have a variety of activities for their guest such as yoga, healing ceremonies, sound bath ect… The hotel is family friendly as well. Tulum is very expensive, so be prepared to pay more for everything in général in comparaison to other places Mexico but Ikal still deserves 5 stars because the higher cost applies to all of Tulum. We had the best time and enjoyed this breathtaking hotel, we are already planning to go back!

My stay at Ikal was phenomenal. I was looking for an opportunity to enjoy a wellness experience and they delivered. The room was just as advertised and they had a wonderful schedule of activities. The location in the national park gave us access to several beach clubs and restaurants along the beach so I could really explore the area. The staff was amazing, super communicative and accommodated our needs/addressed any questions. Would definitely return during peak season or visit their sister property on my next trip.

Certainly a glamping experience. However not the safest steps in property and “room” quite slippery with little support. They have glass shampoo bottles and conditioners which is understandable however again not the safest one of them broke right on my foot on the outdoor shower. Beautiful overall. The mosquitos will eat you up make sure you bring bug spray. Quite pricey but the view is remarkable and the experience is worth it. Glad we did it but I wouldn’t return in the future. It’s a one and done experience

Amazing stay in Ikal, Tulum

We have spend 6 nights in the tree house room there and still regret we did not book longer stay in this beautiful place. Amazing eco friendly hotel in the middle of a jungle, just right on the beach. Located in the Jaguar park, with shittle services across the park which allows as well explore the location at ease and your own pace. Loved the atmosphere, the design, service was very good- staff friendly and helpful, food delicious a bit pricey but keeping in mind Tulum prices, it was ok. Morning joga with the view to the beach was amazing. And the Margaritas there were the best and we tried them in many places. Would definately come back here.

Beach front serenity

Overall the place was beautiful and great. The entire staff was wonderful and so genuinely nice. If you love the outdoors and the beach it's perfect. Except for your room and the office, everything is outdoors and open air. If you are rhe kind of person who needs carpeting, AC and hates bugs this is not the place for you. The room did have AC but the ocean breeze was wonderful

We enjoyed every aspect of this Hotel. From the super friendly staff to the delicious food at the restaurant, everything surpassed our expectations. The intimate and private bungalows were just what we needed, and the staff kept them clean & stocked for us during our stay. They have bikes and scooters for rent, and we made the 15 minutes trek into town almost everyday. The town itself was so tourist friendly, everywhere we went we felt a sense of safety and that was huge to us. The hotel staff made it really easy to relax and just enjoy the sunshine, I could not recommend this hotel more! Such a unique experience, you will not regret it!
