Writing this review is to be honest a little tormenting for us. Because when something is really good you almost want to keep it for yourself and you don't want the world to know about it. Almost! We spent ten days at Teetotum. The owner, Richard did his utmost to feel at home be it in giving us amazing suggestions... More

When we first drove by Teetotum on our way down to Sian Ka'an, we were discouraged by its setting--smack on the main drag across from a huge Walmart-type store and with trucks and taxis going by. We knew when we booked that it was on the beach road, but I was still worried. But when we stepped inside, we realized... More

After staying at various places in Tulum, Teetotum offered the perfect respite from the drawbacks of both a hostel and large resort, in terms of accommodations, relaxation, affordability, and convenience. I loved having both the center of town and beaches within arms reach - or more literally, a free bike ride away. The owners' laid back, come and go as... More

I came to Teetotum for one night and ended up staying there for four nights. This hotel is a very special place - a unique blend of beautiful minimalist design, comfort, cosiness and hospitality. Richard and his staff are very friendly, honest and responsive people. The entire atmosphere at the hotel is very safe and relaxed, I felt there like... More

Teetotum was the perfect place to end our trip of the Yucatan. The staff was so warm, friendly, and accommodating. Free bike use, great happy hour deal-- it was actually a place we would stay at instead of going to the beach! If you've seen the beaches in Tulum, you know this is quite a statement. Go. You will love... More

Here's what i learned about concrete floors: cool in 100 degree heat, easy to remove sand and block the noise of your neighbors above. Also, there is air-conditioning, which should not be expected at all of the resorts. The bed was spacious and the sheets freshly washed. The bay window floods with warm light and the dark curtains adequately occlude... More

They have bikes you can you is you feel like riding to the beach or where ever. You also can't beat the 2 for... More

First of all I just want to say...Thanks Richard and staff. My girlfriend and I stayed at Teetotum for 3 nights the first week of March and it suited our needs perfectly. We have stayed in Tulum before, but the place we usually stay was closed because of the Maya festival that was being held that week. We feel lucky... More

This hotel is a great treat. It is in an easy to find location, just one turn off of the 307. It bridges the gap between city living and the beach communities. We were easily able to sample the local culture and cuisine of the city, as well as the more touristic beach front destinations. The staff are inviting and... More

Great location as in between town and beach so you get to do a bit of both easily from this hotel... they also offer free bike rental so you can have a nice cycle to the beach. Rooms were nice and spacious with a modern minimalist style... bed was big and comfy. Breakfast was very nice and food overall is... More
