My stay at this hotel was a nice experience overall. The rooms were not only clean but also had a huge bed which made for a comfortable sleep. The breakfast was a highlight, with fresh eggs and a great selection of fruits, although the dining area could use some improvement. The location felt interesting and was perfect for couples looking to explore Tulum away from the noisy central streets. While the service was attentive and informative, some aspects of the facilities weren't ideal and could be upgraded for better convenience.

My stay at this hotel was quite pleasant overall. The rooms were comfortable and had an amazing huge bed, though one of them lacked direct garden access. The breakfast was a real highlight, with a delicious variety prepared each morning. However, the location was a bit further from the usual beach scene, which might not suit everyone. All in all, it felt like a good value for the experience provided.
