"The biggest problem was the lack of hot water. Also, the reception staff spoke no English, making communication very difficult. But the room was very quiet and has many features like a kitchen, washing machine, enough chairs, private tiny pool."

Beautiful beaches. Ruins within walking distance. Cenotes galore. Friendly people. Small town feel.

3/5 - Okay

Tulum is a beautiful natural place. It is starting to get congested and a bit touristy. I hope there is enough sense to protect the nature.

We enjoyed seeing the Coba and Tulum ruins and taking a sunset cruise. People were extremely friendly and the resort was a peaceful, beautiful place to relax and enjoy. We enjoyed the nightly entertainment Dreams Tulum had to offer as well.

Tulum has so many dining options. We made our selections based off of Google reviews. Most of the restaurants and bars we visited were filled with lush plants for a laid back jungle vibe.
