The tranquility and the friendly staff made my stay memorable but the room we stayed in had several holes in the roof which made my kids scared

It's a very small place with a lovely caretaker and his lovely dog. We loved going out for beach walks accompanied by the super friendly and obedient dog.

Y’all the staff was so nice. I LOVED this property. The beach is directly behind the hotel. The only downfall is because this is an eco hotel, the air only works during certain times. But it was worth the stay and price!

Such a fun place to stay! Perfect spot for fun and relaxation. Great staff. Awesome bar happy hour/ restaurant.

10/10

Absolutely perfect for a no-frills beach trip. The staff was phenomenal, friendly, and helpful. Service was great and the staff also was great at sharing local info and recommendations. Couldn’t be easier to walk out of your hotel room and onto the beach with a full bar and cozy beach beds. Gave four stars on facilities only because the AC was down one night because of a power outage so that was a hot night, but was there for 5 nights total with no issues.

We had a wonderful stay with Playa Canek! The staff is incredibly kind and helpful, and you cannot beat walking from your room to a perfect beach with soft sand and crystal clear water. Our AC didn’t work one the nights we were there, and we couldn’t adjust the temperature during our stay when it was on, but this was pretty minor and otherwise we had a really wonderful time. Would stay here again!

The entrance is not attractive at all. As long as the price continues to be reasonable. We will come back. Highly recommend beachfront rooms. 3rd floor. Great view.

This hotel is a scam. We prepaid for our two night stay in full, on Expedia with itinerary numbers and confirmation numbers to prove it. The manager refused to give us a room, claiming he was in some sort of feud with Expedia and wasn’t getting paid. He demanded we pay him directly, AGAIN for the same room. Over an hour on the phone with Expedia, and Expedia told us to just pay again for the room, and that they’d refund us later. Guess what, Expedia lied and refused to refund us after the trip. We had to contest the charges with our credit card company and weeks after our trip we’re still fighting it out between Expedia who lied, our credit card company, and the hotel which doesn’t respond to anyone by phone or email. AVOID AT ALL COSTS. It’s a SCAM

We really enjoyed the simple elegance of the property. The penthouse suite was reasonably priced relatively speaking, had amazing views and was ad advertised w/ plenty of space. The location was also A for enjoying the Tulum beach hotel / restaurant zone within walking distance. Staff was friendly and helpful, A/C at night was just what you needed for a good rest, and breakfast while small hit the spot daily to start the day off with a snack.

The staff was absolutely amazing! We really enjoyed our stay here. Super affordable and the place is stunning! The free breakfast was amazing and the massages we got were incredible! The only downside we had staying here was that there’s extremely limited parking (6 spots) and if there’s no room for you, you have to park across the street for $18 a night. Also, the pool pictured online, is a private pool not accessible to guests.

I wanted a true room on the beach mixed in with the jungle and this hotel delivered in full! Just. Wonderful. After staying in Cancun I craved the completely opposite experience. The hotel almost melted in to the beach and i slept with the door open to hear the surf which was literally only 50 feet away. I loved it!

We stayed for 11 nights and had a fantastic time. The hotel is a wonderful place to have a vacation. Paulina in such an amazing hostess. Bruno is a wonderful owner and host. The staff are all super helpful and friendly. This is a small family owned hotel with that special touch. Do not expect all areas to have personnel at all times. But they are easy to find and so very helpful. The access to the beach is perfect. Our room on the third floor was so beautiful with an amazing view of the beach, sunrises and moon rises. We would highly recommend.

10/10

My beach front room, the only thing I didnt like waws that they shut down the power during the day

8/10

We loved our stay, food is amazing and far cheaper than places right off the street. Every single person there was helpful, from the bartender to the office receptionist waly. They literally remembered our names and orders… amazing stay. Oh and the two masseuse ladies WOW. BUT, be mindful that even though it’s pricy, restrooms are ZERO soundproof, very low water pressure, no dryer is provided, and they are super limited with their towels.

8/10

The family suite is LOVELY but so freaking noisy!! We could hear dogs bark, all the cats drive by, so hard to sleep. Aside from that this room was PERFECT.

10/10

Great stay! Amazing view! Would be great to have a kettle and hair dryer and small fridge. Or at least have option to borrow some from front desk for use during our stay. Also boogie boards to borrow would be great as well. And more hooks in bathroom for towels. This was our second stay here and would definitely come back again. Great staff and thanks to Fernando at the bar and Jessie our cleaning person!
