After staying in 3 differents hotels in or near Tulum (Jashita and Esencia) Piedra Escondida definitely is our best souvenir. Very good location, friendly and professionnal staff, good and not too expensive food, and very nice room with sea view. Only - : a bit noisy roadside, if you can ask for a room closest to the sea and in... More

We spent two of our four nights in Mexico in Tulum at Piedra Escondida and every minute of it was wonderful. The private little beach, the staff, the food/drinks, and just the overall atmosphere was perfect. We plan on coming back time and time again and NOT staying anywhere else! We felt homesick for Piedra Escondida when we left and... More

We have been to Tulum many times over the years and part of what brings us back year after year is the wonderful setting of Piedra Escondida. With it's private beach cove with soft white sand, quaint rooms with amazing ocean views, delicious menu items at their restaurant and wonderful hospitality of the staff, we will continue to return year...

The staff is uniformly friendly and professional--from Marco who settled us in (and down after a harrowing trip through an unseasonal torrential rain storm trip, at night, from the airport), to the charming wait staff, to the maids who are trained not only in good housekeeping but also in the esoteric art of towel and flower sculpture. As one of... More

I spent a couple of nights during my honeymoon back in 1997 and again during Christmas 2011. It was the only hotel back then whereas now it must compete with excellent neighbours. Everything has remained as great as it was and i would suggest this hotel to everyone willing to relax for a few days in a great area of... More

This is a great little hotel located right in the middle of the hotel area on the beach in Tulum. The staff are awesome, the food is good, and the rooms and general feel of the place is really nice. We are here over the Christmas and New Year Holiday, so the room rates are way overpriced for what you... More

My fiancé and I spent seven wonderful nights at Piedra Escondida. I booked our stay at the hotel based on TripAdvisor reviews and I am very happy with that decision! Based on reviews, we booked Room Type A Superior. We were in room #4 which has the absolute best views from its two private balconies, but all rooms have wonderful... More

It's a tough life, but somebody's got to do it. Love it that my biggest responsibility while staying at Piedra Escondida is deciding what flavor of margarita to have (Answer: Tamarindo). I've had margaritas this good only once before, at Mar y Sombra in Manuel Antonio, Costa Rica. We've come to Tulum for Thanksgiving about a half-dozen times, now. Had... More

Excellent location (good starting point for day trips to Coba', Cichen Itza etc.) , nice beach, friendly staff, clean and comfortable rooms (with a baby cots available on request), the restaurant serves lovely food at reasonable prices - would have gladly stayed twice as long...

This place is like Gilligans Island reimagined by Vogue magazine. It’s really gorgeous. Not high end at all. The rooms have a rustic quality and everything’s a little lo-fi. But when you walk through the foyer out to the beach, I challenge you not to gasp. It’s heaven. It’s also in the main part of the hotel zone which is... More
