The accommodation was beautiful. It felt like we had our own piece of the jungle. We've seen lots of coatis, raccoons and iguanas. Unfortunately, a lot of mosquitoes too, but that's expected in Mexico (at least in October). There was mosquito repellent in the room though. The staff were very helpful with any questions or requests.

This is a very unique place to stay. We had a room with a pool, it was very nice. It kept raining, and the roof leaks, not good. Hotel food is quite expensive, and not close to anything else to walk to, which would be my main dislike, however the staff was wonderful and helpful with recommendations for places to eat and drink. They did a great job of responding though WhatsApp when I had a question and hooked us up with a great taxi driver. If you want something a little more rustic this place is perfect.

My husband and I spent our 15 year anniversary here and we're beyond impressed. It was BEAUTIFUL! The Staff was top notch and helped with everything we asked. Sophia and Allen (front desk) were quick to answer any questions we had regarding the city, ruins, and food. The maintenance crew was attentive and helpful with the few minor issues we had. I would 100% recommend this location. The View alone is worth EVERY penny!

Wow we were so satisfied with our stay at Ikal! We had the Maya suite and it was better than we expected (you had an entire yard for yourself!) and the whole feeling in the hotel area was really nice. The beach was also lovely and not crowded at all, very chill and nice vibe. Highly recommend!

This was the most fun and unique hotel I’ve ever stayed in! The beds are really comfortable, the staff is so kind and helpful, and the location is soo gorgeous. I was a bit curious about how going outside in a private courtyard to the bathroom would work, but it was totally fine. Do remember to use bug spray.

I love staying at this hotel! It is in the jungle and on the beach with no "boom-boom" music blasting, just the sounds of nature and the waves crashing on the shore. The staff are super friendly and accommodating. The yoga classes in the yoga shala are top-notch!

Amazing stay for nature lovers! It’s absolutley beautiful here the staff and very kind and helpful! They have so many unique private accommodations that all have their own charm! They have a variety of activities for their guest such as yoga, healing ceremonies, sound bath ect… The hotel is family friendly as well. Tulum is very expensive, so be prepared to pay more for everything in général in comparaison to other places Mexico but Ikal still deserves 5 stars because the higher cost applies to all of Tulum. We had the best time and enjoyed this breathtaking hotel, we are already planning to go back!
