Tulum Mexico: these are the best places to stay
Tulum... Mexico... Right, guitar music. Tulum... Mexico... The village of all our dreams. Because my oh my what heaven on earth this village is. Jubilation. Jubilation. Jubilation! Tulum is, in short, a boho jungle village located on the Caribbean azure sea. Do you see it in your mind? Already booking? Yes? Then a debacle follows (after all): one place to stay in Tulum is even better than the other. Choice stress at its finest. FOMO. Whatever you want to call it. Just try to decide between one of these highlights from the ultimate Travel Guide Tulum Mexico - the best places to stay.
The name says it all, there is Art, it looks Arty and there is Art for sale. Totally nice. Even better: a damn tasty breakfast (or lunch) is put on the table after which you can't say anything anymore. In addition to the shop/lunch tent, there is exactly one room for rent at the Tulum Art Club. Behind it in the garden, go up the stairs and then you have the place all to yourself. Vintage decor does the trick: everything very nice.
Papaya Beach: the gem of Tulum. Not only because of the extremely pleasant stay, but also because even as a non-hotel guest you can have a wonderful time there. Papaya Playa is and remains a favorite, even though we have been there three times already. Or well, one of the. But… If you can book a room, book! And otherwise a day at the beach for Papaya Playa is also perfectly fine. Because: the place to be! A party? Yes, every weekend.
The rustling of the palm trees, the thundering waves, a view over the long beach... If you have some euros left, roll them towards Violet House in Tulum. Because let's be honest: it's not a bargain. If you have a few extra bones left, smash them to bits. Casa Violeta was founded by Karla Gutierrez. Karla wanted to get rid of the daily hustle and bustle, lists and to do's and set up a place where people could escape and that became Casa Violeta. And she succeeded: we were completely out of the world. It is luxurious. Chic. Nice. Calm. And more of that.
Handsome. Handsome. Most handsome. That is Nomade Tulum. What a picture. The hotel is boho cool to the max. Cushions on the sand, fringes on lamps, food from a tray on the floor, rugs anywhere and then executed at its very best. This is of course accompanied by an associated audience, so be prepared for the hippest tourists (who are also decorated with frills). So: belly in, chin up and let's strut.
In a village street, behind a few large doors, you will find the oasis of peace Prana Boutique Hotel is called. Prana only has a few rooms, a restaurant, a shop, a spacious swimming pool to splash around in and a really nice bar. At that nice bar they prepare fish bowls of cocktails that you can take with you to take a dip: prrrima.
The program Mayan Tulum Mexico hotel is not the all-inclusive and bad party type. No, we are talking about the type of peace, order, regularity. Yoga, healthy food, sun, sea and beach. That is Maya Tulum in Mexico. A beautiful park on the sea with an extensive range of beautiful houses. There in the jungle you can walk to your house feeling very zen. The nice thing: even the cheapest house looks cozy and even spacious. And the beach is your backyard.
Another one in the list that is simply beautiful and disproportionately expensive: Azulik. A super deluxe eco resort on the bluer than blue water of the Tulum sun. There is no electricity except for a charger in the room because you don't want to be there without a telephone because everything has to be clicked on the most beautiful holiday snapshots at Azulik. Azulik is also only for hotel guests, plenty of celebrities are spotted there, but you can also lie on the beach. Will cost you a few dollars per person. To be fair, you'll be just as comfortable at another beach.
With both feet on the ground. Is there an affordable and nice hotel in Tulum (Mexico)? Yes! That exists. Here's the proof: Wish & Live Hotel Tulum. In the center of Tulum, not the beach center but the village center, the two are close to each other. Wish Tulum is the newer of the two, simply furnished but with a touch of that Tulum Boho atmosphere. How could it be otherwise?
Hashtag takeback for the Be Hotel in Tulum please. The lovely blue-and-white hotel is located on the beach, just like the rest of the village, but just a little further outside the busy 'stripe' and is so wonderfully relaxed that it ignores the rest. And even if Be Tulum is full in terms of rooms (or it is a bit too expensive for you), it is a great tip for a Corona or cocktail at the beach bar. But it must be said, try to get one of the ocean suites with a view of the sea from a lovely oval-shaped bath in your vintage-chic room.
At first you will probably come to Posada Margherita for the pastas. You get there after a walk through a garden full of an organized hodgepodge of pots, bottles, plants and wooden gazebos (it's impossible not to take photos, believe us). You can also sleep at Posada Margherita: there is a very affordable hotel above the restaurant.
