Tunich is located on the Jungle Side of the Beach Road in the Hotel Zone in Tulum. The Cabanas are directly across the street from a free public entrance to the beach. Once on the beach, you will have the option to put your towel down and enjoy the sun & sea or take a chair at our neighbours beach club situated on the beach. (Minimum consumption may apply) There are many restaurants, beach clubs and shops located within a short bike or taxi from the property. Tulum Town is about a 10 minute drive from our property. All rooms feature free wifi, a private 3-piece bathroom and a patio space in front with chairs and/or a hammock. The rooms are basic & rustic as we try to offer a great, safe location at a fair price considering how expensive it is to rent a room on the beach road in Tulum these days. Potheads Restaurant is in front of the cabanas & serves all-day brunch from 7 am to 7 pm. Tunich Jungle Cabañas can help guests with arrangements for sightseeing and other activities including the Tulum ruins, cenotes or trips as requested.

Couples particularly like the location — they rated it 8.2 for a two-person trip.

Tunich is (in our minds!) a one-of-a-kind space... we aren't sure what to call it. A guest house? A hotel? A B&B? It shares elements of all of these accommodation types - the independence of a hotel, the price of a guest house and the personalized attention of a B&B. Ultimately we decided not to "label" it and instead just focus on bring a service orientation to a well-priced room in an amazing location. You can call it whatever you want. :)
I left my corporate life behind to take over Tunich and take in the unique vibes of Tulum. I have a a young family and we are thrilled that my kids get to see and experience so many different cultures, languages, and personalities in one place! I am so thankful that my core team has been with me for years and are focused on delivering the best possible experience when staying at Tunich.
Perhaps we are biased, but we feel that our location is one of our greatest assets! The hotel zone of Tulum is one long narrow road that goes for miles and miles. The trick is, there is only ONE way in and out. We are located near the access road which means it is much easier for guests to go and explore the town (close enough to bike) and the other "neighborhoods" along the beach road as well. Within immediate walking distance there is a beautiful public beach (right across the road from our hotel), several supper restaurants, clothing & trinket shops and a small convenience store for basic needs. And last (but not least) we also have a bike rental shop right across the street!
