Field notes
1.5h from CUN or 45m from TQO
The gateway to the Tulum beach strip. Easy transfer from Cancun or the new Tulum Airport (TQO).
Consistent Rates
Pricing is very consistent, but stick to mid-week arrivals. Book a Casita for more privacy from the parties.
Vibrant Energy
The beach club vibe travels. Request a jungle-side casita if you prefer quiet nights over music.
