Two things stand out: 1, Romana, the yoga instructor and sound healer, is amazing. I took Yin/Tibetan sound bowls, slow flow, and abs/glutes and each session was amazing. She gives you all of herself, and her physical and spiritual approach is amazing. You do not come across people with her special energetic qualities often. On top of this, the yoga and massage hut is intimate, beautiful and magic. The other thing I loved was the rooms - comfy beds, great little decks, indoor and outdoor showers. I loved the feeling of the rooms. The food is very good too though the music can be a bit counter to the peaceful vibe. - it is nice that this resort and Ikal are right next to each other, to compliment each other.

The government started a new program to limit plastic- cans etc.. so on the road to the hotel everyone was stopped by the military and car screened. Massive backups- also we had water bottles and beer for our trip removed from our car.

Staying within the national park was neat, but you could not bring even a water bottle to the resort. Federal police check your car and trunk every time you travel from town to the resort. The property is beautiful and well kept but the tourist boats are everywhere on the beach in front of the hotel.

Great peaceful spot in Tulum
We loved Kai. It was a perfect option for my husband and I. I loved the privacy of the individual rooms. And it was a great spot right by the beach. It felt safe, comfortable, beautiful and peaceful/quiet. We ate in the restaurant one night of our stay and the food was good. We would definitely return to stay there again if we are back in Tulum.

Overall we had a great stay except paying everyday per head at the entrance of the resort even your a guest. The boats coming in and out scared me getting hit while swimming on the beach and the smell of the gas also bothers me

El hotel está muy bonito y limpio. Muy cerca de las Ruinas de tulum. Los precios de la comida y bebidas está un poco elevados comparados con otros destinos turísticos pero igual que todo Tulúm. El único pero en mi opinión es la playa. Tenía algo de sargazo y unas lanchas estacionadas en la playa que dañaban la hermosa vista al mar que tiene el hotel. Se los recomiendo. Volvería a hospedarme ahí. Lo que más disfrutamos fue andar en bicicleta en toda la zona arqueológica. Nota: El hotel está en retirado de la zona hotelera donde están los restaurantes y beach clubs famosos. Esperen gastar $600 pesos de ida a los restaurantes y $700/$800 para regresar a tu hotel.

The property is right on the beach and in close proximity to a handful of other hotels. My room was extremely clean and housekeeping came everyday. The restaurant had a very good, but small menu. All staff were kind and helpful. The property itself was the perfect calm, quiet getaway.
