This year we celebrated Easter in Tulum, in the Retiro Mayo hotel, situated on one of the most beautiful beaches I have ever seen. Kilometers of white sand offering total calm and tranquillity, far away from the crowds attracted by the large ultra commercial beaches. This little hotel, thanks to the talented and caring staff, offers one of the most... More

I don't know where to start. The room had rats, everyone can see you shower because there's no curtains, lots of holes in the mosquito net, the "continental breakfast" is stale oatmeal and bananas with flies landing on it here and there. Oh, let's not forget the warm milk. We stayed here with our two girls 13 and 16. THe... More

Very quiet section of the hotel zone. Room and private bathroom were clean and spacious. Great water pressure, comfy bed and large mosquito netting. There was... More

We enjoyed being very close to a fantastic beach. Once the power goes you definitely need a flaslhlight to maneuver in a pitch dark, verybasic cabin. The restaurant is overpriced. One scrambled egg cost US $4. A leaking toilet was not repaired and the fan did not work. Our cabin had cockroaches. The kitchen staff were great. They do not... More
