Not for everyone but I loved it!

The hotel that we usually stay in didn't have enough nights for us on this trip so we stayed out last night at Tunich. We eat at their restaurant on every trip (we frequent the area) so we need how pretty the grounds were and how good the food was already. We were interested to see the rest! We stayed in room 1 and they let us check in early. It is on the ground floor with beautiful plants all around. The wall and floor are screens and they have drapes for privacy. The bed was comfortable! The shower was a bit cool (not quite cold) for me but perfect for my husband. The porch was nice, it had a hammock and overlooked a lovely area. It is more quite than you would expect but remember to keep your voices down as the screens obviously don't block the sound. The staff is friendly and the good is excellent. You might hear coati's in the tree above you getting excited at night. I highly recommend for a winter trip. Can't say I would stay here in the summer.

Close the public beach and great value. Nice to have the restaurant connected. The restaurant had a great atmosphere, menu, and vibe. We would definitely stay again.

We loved our stay here. Very friendly and down to earth environment with an excellent breakfast and restaurant. It was a bit noisy in our room with the sound of the generator, restaurant music and a raccoon living above the canopy and moving around in the night. The bed was small and not very comfy. Overall we had a great time and would recommend the place for backpackers and younger travelers.

very cute, nice and clean budget stay in the hotel zone, close to many bars and venues on the beach strip. The only issues for us were 1. lack of air conditioning 2. the super loud restaurant next door. Unfortunately I couldn’t sleep very well at nights because of these issues. Everything else was good though, we liked the food and were definitely happy to be close to the beach.

Very rustic. Lots of mosquitos as the whole room is only enclosed with screens And they find their way in. Also there’s a huge hole in the middle of the property with stagnant water that probably attracts them more. The bed was ok … the futon was uncomfortable. Lighting was not good. Too dim to even see yourself in the daytime. If you are a couple of dudes or girls who want very basic amenities and don’t care about air or comfort then u will be fine but for the price I paid it wasn’t worth it.

Great people and great vibes. Staff was friendly and helpful, loved our stay. Free breakfast and coffee in the morning was delicious. Good location and there is a bike rental place right in front (which you will need since taxi's overcharge). Thank you Tunich for a lovely time.

Beautiful place to stay in the Hotel zone of Tulum Beach. Very clean cabana and beach just steps away. I will definitely stay here when I visit again. Free fresh fruit, juice, and toast was a perfect start to our day. Much love and thanks!

Everyone at Tunich is kind and knowledgeable and super helpful. I always feel safe and comfortable when staying there. The cabanas are always clean and there are always fresh towels. The food at Tunich is fresh and delicious and I have decided that next time I stay there, I will take advantage of their kitchen more often than venturing out! I can’t wait to go back for another trip!

Great place to stay cheap

Super cool spot. Great restaurant attached. Definitely recommend.

Good location, clean rooms. Little bit noise for the road traffic. Excelente food and vegan options.

Great aoot and comfy room

The place was amazing & the service was lovely. They make the time there wonderful.

READ BEFORE BOOKING. Very poor hotel for this price. We knew we will not necessarily get the best hotel by the beach, but this was worse than our expectations. First of all the room was full of dust, even the sofa- we got all itchy from staying there. Also the carpet in the room had a bunch of hair in it! I don't know if they ever cleaned it. The bed was the most uncomfortable bed we had during our stay. Way too soft, our backs were hurting the next day. The breakfast was supposed to be included, BUT only bread and a little bowl of fruits were included. For anything extra we needed to pay extra. Great way to make money out of tourists... Also we got "freshly squeezed" orange juice that was obviously bottled juice that was watered down so much you couldnt even taste the orange! Also the location was not the best. First of all it says that the hotel is on the beachfront, but it's on the other side of the road in the back road. The have access to the water but it's on the other side of the street. Also, this property runs a generator - it was so loud that it was imposible to enjoy nature sounds. The door lock was just ridiculous, it's not safe to leave anything of value inside. Also you can hear your neighbours, because the walls are like paper. The lady at the reception had an attitude that was very unpleasant and cocky. Communication with other staff was pleasant. Of course the house was full of insects and lizards - but that's a part of jungle rustic experience.

I enjoyed the simplicity and "rustic" nature but the price should have been much less for the quality of the amenities and almost non-existent service. Over my four night stay I received service only once, that means I was without clean towels, fresh sheets, and my trash bin was full of poopy toilet paper (with no lid). Since the room didn't have AC and only 1 out of 2 working fans I sweat all night so the lack of new sheets was very noticeable by the end of my stay. The room had only one working electric outlet which meant I had to choose between using the fan or charging my phone, not my favorite decision to have to make. The staff were friendly but there was maybe a disconnect between the restaurant and room staff because I requested service on the room to no avail. The incessant generator noise was a problem for my travel mates but I didn't mind. I think Tunich could be an amazing little spot but right now it's not well maintained, well served, or fairly priced.

The jungle setting and my second story room was SO cool. The door to my room didn't lock, you just pulled on the handle and it opened...but Tulum is so safe and the rooms are far enough away from the main stress that i felt completely comfortable being there alone. The location is perfect, steps from the beach and to a store with sunscreen, snacks, and beer. Bike rentals across the street for 150 pesos, and town, the ruins and all restaurants were either biking or walking distance.

Amazing staff, cool spot! Rustic and clean. Just across the street from the beach.

3/5

Beautiful but a bit noisy and not located on the beach even I thought it would

Simple, welcoming & trendy

Tunich was great as always. The owners are friendly Canadians. The food is awesome & the coffee is ground & brewed fresh. Brunch has the place packed daily. People stop in just to eat. The rooms are simple but nice. Generator for electricity & water is trucked in. Beach access is across the street. Usually the beach is beautiful & water is crystal clear, but there was a seaweed bloom all along the coast. Yay spring. Make sure to try a coconut. They machete off the top & stick in a straw.

Cabana on a busy road

The hotel is located on a busy road. The pros—it’s a cabana with a mosquito net so it feels exotic. It’s connected to a restaurant so it’s convenient. Continental breakfast included excellent coffee, toast with jam and fresh fruit. You can also add extras from the menu for a price. It has a free parking one street from the hotel. Cons- it’s very rugged and noisy b/c there are no walls. The shower only had scorching hot water so it was hard to wash my hair. The beach access is not so great as there is a ton of seaweeds and rocks so you cannot swim. The public beach access Is pretty far from the hotel and it is not within a walking distance. If you take your car car, parking is problematic. To pay for this hotel you have to either use PayPal or cash, not convenient. I tried paying by PP but was unable to. So I had to drive to the supermarket to the ATM machine to get thecash. All nearby ATMs weren’t working. The bottom line, if you want a rustic experience for $140 a night, it’s a place to go.

Love Tunich

I love this hotel. I stayed here last year when I visited and when I booked my ticket super last minute I immedietly thought of Tunich. I lucked out and was able to book after someone canceled. The rooms are gorgeous, very simple, very clean. Showers actually have hot water (which is a little difficult to find in Tulum) The restaurant has delicious food and is perfect if you just want to grab an iced coffee on your way to the beach. Staff is also great, super nice, and chill. But obviously the best part is the price point and location. your Right across from the beach, you can rent bikes across the street, and are right next to a little convince store (atm, tolietries, snacks) and a other bars and restaurants. I highly recommend staying here and would defiantly book again. Oh and wifi is super strong and I had great reception in my room (which I've never had in another hotel in Tulum).

GORGEOUSNESS

this spot shines like a diamond in the rough. clean and easy and a stones throw from the beach. all of the staff were wonderful and kind and Pili especially made us feel so welcomed and comfortable. the coffee is delicious and the guava jam on perfect whole grain bread got us off to a perfect start each day. they fresh squeezed oranges for my toddler every morning at no extra charge. walk a few steps and you arrive at a public beach that is absolutely gorgeous. walk a few more steps and there are delicious restaurants and shops. i would come back in a heartbeat

Rustic hotel but fun, clean and comfortable.

All staff were absolutely great. Wonderful location. We really enjoyed this trip

Great place, atmosphere, food, drinks and beach

Tunich has a great and relaxed atmosphere. First of all it is located across the road from a public beach which according to us was the best in Tulum, as it was small, beautiful and had less people. Second of all, Tunich has a restaurant which has great all day breakfast (do not miss out on the peanut butter and banana French toast), lunch, fresh fruit juice, delicious coffee. Continental breakfast is also included. The staff was very helpful to provide us recommendations re: other restaurants and activities to do in tulum. The staff was also extremely accommodating, our last day we had to leave early and one cook arrived early to make us breakfast and the guard helped us get a taxi. The rooms are a good size. Bring your earplugs if you are a light sleeper and plan on going to bed early as you do hear animals, music at night as there are no windows (only a screen). I would definitely recommend this place and would stay at Tunich again if I return to Tulum in the future.

Tunich Cabanas

The owners Brandy and Blaine were extremely service-minded and gave us advice on places to visit and best restaurants in the area. The cabanas were cute however please be aware that there's no hot shower water and the wifi connection is poor.

Beautiful boutique accommodation in paradise

I stayed three nights in the treehouse at Hotel Tunich with my two kids, ages 7 and 10. It was exactly the experience we were looking for; the accommodations were simple but so comfortable, the shower and bathroom were amazing, and the experience of feeling like we were living in the jungle was awesome. The owners and staff of the property were super welcoming and friendly; ask them about the beaches, cenotes and activities to do, they know the area really well.

We were excited to stay at the beach but this hotel is across the street from the beach. It was incredibly noisy.There was a generator running in the evening when we checked in, it started up around 5 AM because power went out,in the morning and then there was no water in our room in the morning. The water truck came and it also used a generator while we were eating breakfast. Definitely a series of unfortunate circumstances, not a relaxing beach visit as planned. Rooms are screened in, and it was hot with no breeze. The ceiling fan and an adjustable fan helped, but didn't reach the 3rd bed.WIFI weak in room. Not worth the price.

Lovely friendly hotel across road from beach

Blain and Brandy claim their hotel is 'safe and clean' - but it is so much more. I recently took my boys for a week to Tulum and stayed at Tunich. We felt so welcomed there by both the owners and staff. The room was small and comfortable, and indeed safe and clean. There was a hammock in the room for lounging, mosquito nets on the beds. I felt very safe for my boys to venture into the cafe by themselves (they are 6 and 8), and even to cross the road to purchase a bottle of water. Brandy and Blain made themselves very available to ask questions about the area, local sites to visit and anything else we could conjure up! Also, when my son got a horrible sunburn (yes, we did put sunblock on! Beware the sun in Tulum!) Brandy, Blain and the staff went out of their way to help us with my son's comfort, without us even asking. We felt like we were at home. Brandy and Blain are new owners of this hotel and they have put so much work into it! It will only get better and better! I would definitely come again! Oh!! And the breakfasts are fabulous - AND they have an espresso machine that makes fabulous coffee!!!!! Also, Ruben is a taxi driver that is frequently asked to do day trips for guests at Tulum - he is reliable, trustworthy, very knowledgable and such a kind man. He is a 'certified touristic' taxi driver - highly recommended!

Great Place to Stay

Highly recommended if you are staying in Tulum. Close to the beach and right in the middle of the resort area. Rooms are basic but had everything you need. Owners were super friendly and there if you needed anything. Best part was the restaurant on site, insanely delicious food.

No record of booking and told to go away

Arrived at Tunich and they had no record of our booking. In fact, they had no computer to check the booking (and last entry in the paper bookings diary was from the week before). The guy on reception did not speak any English and with our basic Spanish it was difficult. Eventually he texted the boss who texted back and told us to "quit" and go away. So were left looking for somewhere to stay in Tulum late in the day. From my limited view of Tunich, reception was dark and uninviting (we stayed over the road in a much nicer place :) Tunich is NOT next to the beach.

They gave me so many information about the Tulum. That's was so helpful to me.

Not the best

It was far too expensive for what you get in my opinion. It's also not on the beach which means there is no ocean breeze and is horrendously hot and muggy.

Single stay at Hotel Tunich

The Hotel is a great low budget solution. The room and terrace has been very nice. You need to be aware about the El generator which is running some hours during the day and than it is not very pleasant to be around the Hotel. Very normal at Tulum beach, since EL is limted! The breakfast was nice, but very limted kitchen offer during the day. They could defiantently could do more business, if they are will to do!

Buena relación calidad precio

La cabaña estaba limpia y cómoda, tenía utensilios de aseo. El desayuno es continental, estaba delicioso. Además cuenta con un restaurante en el día donde la comida es deliciosa y a buen precio. Él área es bastante costosa, las cabañas en túnich son asequibles y bien ubicadas en la zona hotelera. Al frente hay ingreso a las playas públicas y hay un sitio para rentar moto o bicicleta. Lo único negativo sería que no cuenta con aire acondicionado y hace bastante calor, pero habían 2 ventiladores.

Buena ubicación

Super buena ubicación, el desayuno muy rico. La habitación es sencilla pero no necesitas más

Muy aceptable

Calidad&precio está muy bien. El problema que encendieron el generador a las 5am y era imposible dormir por el ruido. Debe pasar poco pero nos tocó. Muy bueno el desayuno,buen servicio

Prima plek voor een nacht om 2 dagen van Tulum strand te genieten.

Personnel très agréable et serviable. En revanche point négatif, pas de fenêtre juste des moustiquaires, pas de clim juste ventilateur qui ne suffise pas.. 1 seul prise de courant dans la chambre, et pas réellement d’intimité, WC et douche sans porte juste un petit rideau. À noter que l'établissement ne possède pas de parking SUJET IMPORTANT (/!\) tout les parking au alentour sont payant visiblement aucun horodateur ou quoi que ce sois c’est de main à main en cash (à la tete du client) pour des place de stationnement qui ne sont inscrite nul part comme étant payante je m’y suis garé. Cela m’a coûté des rayure de clef sur une voiture de location. Super expérience. Nous somme finalement partie 2 jours plutôt

Las cabañas se encuentran sobre la ruta costera que lleva a Boca Paila, pero del lado opuesto a la playa. La cabaña que "nos tocó en suerte" era de troncos y estaba en muy mal estado. Constaba de una habitación en planta baja que como único mobiliario tenía un futón con restos de arena de la playa, es decir, ni mesa ni sillas. También en en la planta baja estaba el baño, con piso de madera, salvó el área de ducha cuyo piso es de cemento, todo resquebrajado. Subiendo una escalera se encuentra el dormitorio, en el que como único mobiliario solo hay una cama con mosquitero, cuyo colchón se hundía en el medio. Resumen: la cabaña estaba sucia, sin un mueble dónde apoyar las maletas, sin vidrios en las ventanas -solo mosquiteros- y a unos pocos metros de un charco con agua podrida, que ademas de emitir un olor inmundo es un excelente criadero de mosquitos. Cuando nos quejamos a la encargada sobre todas estas carencias, todo lo que atino a decir fue: "A muchos huéspedes les gustó la cabaña, pero a ustedes no", no reconociendo absolutamente nada. Por otra parte, pudimos conocer otra cabaña, que era mucho mejor que la nuestra y tenía una tarifa más baja Muy mala experiencia en un lugar encantador.

Fue muy agradable el hotel, la habitacion buena personalidad

Has potential

Very charming cabanas, nice room, maybe on the small side with not much storage. Great to have a balcony but we didn't use it that much because of the mosquitoes. We were unlucky enough to stay on the week when they were switching the generator from gas to solarpower, and the electricity didn't always work. We told the staff who were very nice and helpful. The generator was very loud and there's also quite a lot of noise from the street and nearby bars. The continental breakfast was actually really filling and the other things we tried on the menu were really tasty as well. The location was great, right in between Tulum town and the area with more restaurants further south, literally right opposite the entrance to the beach and bicycle hire and surrounded by a few restaurants and shops. The interior of the room was very nice but just be aware that there's no door to the bathroom!

hotelet har nya ägare och håller på att rustas upp. rummen behöver göras vid. restaurangen och personalen var superb för att inte tala om ägarna som satte guldkant på mötet.

trop cher pour la prestation

petit hotel , les chambres sont mal isolées, un peu trop cher pour le service

Vacaciones relax

Divino lugar . El servicio impecable. Atendieron todas nuestras necesidades . Lo recomiendo a quien le guste la tranquilidad .

Fan

It would be nice if you could reglate the fan by yourself. Not automatic between 0730 pm - 0800 am. Otherwise it was good!!
