Our stay at Alaya Hotel Tulum was absolutely magical! From the breathtaking beachfront views to the serene atmosphere, every moment felt like a slice of paradise. The rooms were beautifully designed, blending luxury with nature in a way that made us feel completely at peace. A huge thank you to Brenda and Stefano, who went above and beyond to ensure our stay was perfect. Brenda was so attentive and made sure we had everything we needed, while Stefano’s local tips and friendly demeanor made exploring Tulum even more enjoyable. They truly made us feel at home. We’re already dreaming of our next visit and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Alaya Hotel to anyone looking for a relaxing and rejuvenating escape in Tulum. Thank you for an unforgettable experience!

We had a wonderful stay overall. The property is well maintained and the service is excellent. I do not recommend going to their sister hotel for the Beach Club access. There’s not much of a beach club there. We preferred the beach setting on the property.

Perfect location
Beautiful villas right on the beach. Perfect location with several restaurants/bars nearby. Great staff/service. Great breakfast and beach bar service. Very thankful to the staff for helping us find an emergency doctor and dentist after a fall. The floors are very slick so be careful if wet. Love Alaya. Love Tulum.

Great cozy hotel right on the beach. Truly an amazing experience. The only downfall is since it’s on the beach you can only get to the hotel by taxi and it cost $30-$40 for every time you enter and leave the area to go into the city. And taxi drivers are always trying to maximize how much they charge. For that reason alone I will not stay in the beach area again. That was too frustrating. The first night I arrive the taxi drivers went on strike and there wasn’t any taxis available the second day I was in Tulum. I felt trapped. Be ready to spend a lot of money on their food as well. My friend and I would spend $60-$90 on breakfast alone at the hotel. I will say the food is super clean. They offer all healthy choices. They offer you one free healthy drink a day .i chose a shot of tumeric and ginger. Waking up on the beach was also breathtaking. The stars at night are amazing.

This place is really perfect. A great location within walking distance to the restaurants and shops but also quiet and laid back to relax at the absolutely gorgeous beach. The property is wonderful. It is a small place, it is surrounded by jungle plants, white sand and the turquoise sea is steps away. The small houses and spacious rooms are beautiful. One thing to keep in mind is that AC is off between 8:30am and 6:30pm. We are used to having AC on all day at our home but honestly we were not bothered by this limitation. I really don’t want to write this review so that too many people find out about this little gem. I would not hesitate to stay here again when in Tulum.
