We celebrated my partner's 50th birthday at Casa de las Olas and it couldn't have been more perfect. All the reviews of this hotel that I heard from friends and from reading on Trip Advisor are all true and more....read them and your mind will be made up! We live in Playa del Carmen and we call it paradise, but... More

All the reviews are spot on. I don't think I can get all the goodness into one review. Here are some highlights: Being off the grid was a great way for an environmentally sensitive couple to get away. The beds are amazing, the rooms are clean and appropriately stocked. The staff is friendly, helpful and very kind. Jimmy's world view,... More

To describe Casa de las Olas would be to simply repeat what so many others have said: it's beautiful, it's secluded, it's a wonderful retreat. Jimmy greatly enhanced our stay there by recommending small local places to eat as we had coffee together in the morning. We admire all he's doing to have as little environmental impact as possible and... More

We love Casa de las Olas, right on the Ocean in Tulum. We've been coming to tulum for years and in the past 2-3 years the place has gotten "chachacha" very hip and trendy... somehow, Casa de Las Olas has managed to avoid the insanity and remains a quiet, tranquil and pretty retreat. There's one large room in this redone... More

Located right beside the Sian Ka'an arch, this villa has the most private beach with white sands and surrounded by lush vegetation as far as the eye can see. Running on solar power, gravity fed shower systems with water purification and custom designed air flow system that does not require any electricity, these villas are the perfect choice for anyone...

We knew it was going to be a great vacation especially within five minutes of arriving, we asked Jimmy, the owner, where we could watch the Superbowl and he replied, "Umm, my living room?" This was our second stay at Casa de las Olas - the reason we came back was because we had such a relaxing time on our... More

Casa de las Olas is a gorgeous little hotel on one of the most beautiful beaches I have come across in all my travels. This is the perfect place to get away from things and relax and enjoy exploring the local area. The rooms are comfortable, the gardens and location great - and the staff are incredible - as they...

A few steps off the beaten path is a perfect spot in the sun. My family and I had an amazing vacation at Casa de Olas in Tulum. The hotel is right on the beach with big, comfy rooms. We got there late and I was overwhelmed by the sound of the waves crashing. It was ethereal. Best sleep ever.... More
