The location on the map isn’t where the property is. It’s 3.5km a 40 minute walk. The host asked for information about my stay before accepting my request. I let the host know I was booking for a family member to stay across from La Zebra where we were staying.When we arrived in Tulum and saw the property was so far away the host said to request a refund. The host denied the refund afterwards. We didn’t use the property and had to pay for other accommodations.

Eco-friendly not ideal for beach front

Directly on the beach. Walk from the sand right into your room. Although cute setup, the sand makes for messy floors. It rained the night we stayed so not the most ideal conditions. Rooms are spacious aong with bathroom. There is only 1-2 staff available at any given time. Being eco-friendly, the AC is only on from 8pm-7am nightly. The sargazo/seaweed was very bad during our stay and the town or hotels so not clean their part of the beach so we couldn't get any use of beachfront access. Beach bar area and seating was not open as the weather did not cooperate. The road along the hotel was relatively private. On the other hand the breakfast was included and good portion and individually made. Area food trucks and restaurants are nice but expensive.

This hotel is a scam. We prepaid for our two night stay in full, on Expedia with itinerary numbers and confirmation numbers to prove it. The manager refused to give us a room, claiming he was in some sort of feud with Expedia and wasn’t getting paid. He demanded we pay him directly, AGAIN for the same room. Over an hour on the phone with Expedia, and Expedia told us to just pay again for the room, and that they’d refund us later. Guess what, Expedia lied and refused to refund us after the trip. We had to contest the charges with our credit card company and weeks after our trip we’re still fighting it out between Expedia who lied, our credit card company, and the hotel which doesn’t respond to anyone by phone or email. AVOID AT ALL COSTS. It’s a SCAM

Absolutely perfect for a no-frills beach trip. The staff was phenomenal, friendly, and helpful. Service was great and the staff also was great at sharing local info and recommendations. Couldn’t be easier to walk out of your hotel room and onto the beach with a full bar and cozy beach beds. Gave four stars on facilities only because the AC was down one night because of a power outage so that was a hot night, but was there for 5 nights total with no issues.

Y’all the staff was so nice. I LOVED this property. The beach is directly behind the hotel. The only downfall is because this is an eco hotel, the air only works during certain times. But it was worth the stay and price!
