8/10 Very Good

Beautiful Property in a Bad Location
Property is beautiful and serene. Family friendly, but good for couples as well. Hotel is right on the beach, had yoga events, live music, and a Matcha Mama right on site. The property is located in the Archeological Zone, which means that each guest will need to pay a nominal one time fee to access the hotel area ($4). More importantly, as of September 2023, the entire Zone is under construction and there is only one way in and one way out. The detour makes getting to the hotel more expensive by taxi and is a hassle because it takes an extra 15-20 minutes to circle around the zone. If you enjoy talking to the National Guard in a foreign country every single time you go back to your room to show your room key and prove you are staying there, this is the place for you. The staff is not very attentive, so you will need to repeat yourself and requests multiple times to get a response. The check-out process is a pain in the neck and takes some time. It's a good place if you are going to spend a few days on the property and never leave. Otherwise, its a $20-40USD cab into town or the Tulum Beach strip plus a border check by armed guards.
