Great Summary - thank you! Can you also recommend a hotel for us and our 20 year old kids that want to be close to the parties. we like amenities of the larger hotels. Also the beach is important - we love body surfing/swimming in the ocean. Much appreciated!

@SwankGuide Жыл бұрын

If you know Swank - you know we shy away from big hotels and are always looking for more boutique experiences - and one of the things we love about Tulum is the lack of mega-resorts. Have a look at our review of La Zebra - that sounds like it might be good for you - very nice beach and beach set up, it has the amenities of a larger resort, and kids can walk to center of nightlife in 10 min - but you wont be awake all night b/c the hotel's far enough away from the boom boom boom you hear all night in central Tulum. You might also want to check out our review of Be Tulum - that's a little more of a walk - say 20 min - to central Tulum - but I always walked on the beach to get to nightlife and that was super pleasant. Good luck.

Your videos are great. I've stayed at a few of these places and visited others. We are leaving tomorrow for Tulum & after watching your videos we've decided to try out Radhoo - we've done a beach day at Nest and adored it. It's been a lot of years since we've been to Tulum and I've discovered you need to be much more careful now in terms of the party scene (not my cuppa tea). When we first visited it was quiet & sleepy and quite undiscovered. Now, it's a matter of avoiding the noisy beach clubs - not a fan. I can verify that hotel Tiki Tiki is a dream and a great budget option. Interestingly, the first place we ever stayed in Tulum was Be Tulum. We fell in love with the beach there but honestly thought the hotel was mostly style over substance. It looks a lot better now to be honest. But you've missed our fav hotel: Alaya. Alaya is magic & special. There's just something about that place that gets me every time. We'll be staying there, as well...

Thanks for the feedback - sounds like I need to look another trip to check out the Alaya - hope you have a great trip

My favorite resort/hotel is the one that Leonardo DiCaprio stayed at in Bali. Just the feeling of being on a random island in the middle of nowhere disconnected to the rest of the world is an amazing feeling... also the staff are so friendly. Like they literally put both of their palms together and kinda bow at you each time which makes me feel very special and sort of like a king which is very flattering.

You mentioned there were 3 hotels that were so bad that you didn't include them. Which ones and why? I'm asking because I was really interested in Azulik but I did'nt see it included.

@SwankGuide Жыл бұрын

Hi Emily - the 3 resorts I tried but decided not to recoomend were Amansala, Delek and Sanara. Azulik looks great - just know it's a bit North - so getting to Tulum's great restaurant scene wont be quite as easy. I also wonder about long beach walks in that area - my experience being a bit north of the centuer when I was up at Habitas is that rocky outcrops translates into secluded beaches - i.e. no long beach walks. I'm not saying that's the case at Azulik - but if you like to walk on the beach may want to ask. Good luck.

Amansala: good but not special - but if you want tons of exercise classes then it might be good. Delek - lovely place - I was looking for charming and affordable on the beach - which it is - but it's across the street from 2 or 3 nightclubs that blast music until 3 AM . Then there's the Sanara - deceptive website - a very average place that felt formulaic and a bit run down. Have fun
