    Tranquil ecco bungalow hut in a jungle-garden setting.

    A minor issue, but the shower over sprayed the shower area rather badly making the whole bathroom wet.

    Tranquil garden-escape in a jungle-like setting. The hut was an ecco- bungalow style with one large room for living space and an attached bathroom. Though simple, it was decorated in a comfortable boho style. We loved how private and remote it seemed. We would be remiss not to mention how lovely and attentive the owner/operator Laura is. We felt connected from first meeting her and suspect she would be described that way by others as well.

    The water power in the shower could be better.

    As the photos indicate you practically be staying in the middle of the jungle although it’s only a few minutes from the road. We were staying with kids and they loved the little pool. The room was spacious and nicely decorated.

    A beautiful place in the middle of the jungle away from the crazy Tulum noise and construction sites

    If you're like me and you want a nice, quiet place away from the Tulum noise, book this place! This is an amazing space, in the middle of nature, with originally designed and decorated bungalows and the best food I ate in Mexico. I did not even want to try eating elsewhere in the area. If you like nature, this is your chance to sleep, shower, read and work in the middle of the Yucatan jungle while still having the comfort of warm showers, comfy beds and mosquitoes nets (although Laura's place almost doesn't have any mosquitoes). The bungalow I stayed in has floor to ceiling windows and if you open all of them it feels like being outside, the best feeling you can wish for. Laura is not the typical host, she's a wonderful woman, a great chef and a beautiful soul. It felt like I was visiting a friend. I completely changed my itinerary in Mexico following her recommendations and I discovered some incredible places. Thank you so much, Laura! I hope to see you again!

    Laura was a wonderful host! She is a spectacular cook and made us delicious meals for breakfast and dinner. She went out of her way to ensure a perfect stay for our family, and we highly recommend this beautiful location for anyone wishing to escape the traffic and hassles of Tulum to enjoy peace, tranquility, and beauty of nature. She also made sure to be available for our arrival and assist with any advice and needs during our stay. Escarabajo Rojo is just one turn off of the main road between Tulum and Coba, and the simple directions form Laura were perfect (the app Waze works well, too).

    It felt like staying in a treehouse in the jungle, and at the same time staying with a local. Laura was so lovely and her meals were delicious.

    The property is more or less 20km away from the center or Tulum, but if you have a car, you can easily find your way downtown. In the middle of the woods, it is the perfect place to stay if you want to rest. A small boutique hotel with everything you need for a couple amazing days in Tulum. The host, Laura, is the best!! She will take care of you as if you are family, and will give the best advices. An amazing person with a BIG heart.

    We loved our stay at Escarabajo Rojo so much! The room is very beautiful and comfortable, the place is a true gem. Laura was very nice to us and her dog and cat are the sweetest. We were sad to only stay one night there, we wish we could stay longer. We highly recommend this place and would definitely stay here again

    We stayed in the tree house structure which is beautiful and as per the photos. The room is comfortable and large. The property is very well maintained. Laura is a superb host with great local knowledge, everyday providing us suggestions if needed (including mezcal reccos) and supplying a nice breakfast. We had a car and it was a great location if, like us, your main thing is not to visit the beach everyday. We could get into Tulum within 15mins. Lovely place to stay if you want to be away from the crowds and have some quiet time.

    The internet did cut out a lot towards the end of my stay. Also, there are quite a few bugs inside the room so be mindful of that. You definitely need a car. I did not rent one but wish I had so I could get around more easily.

    I really enjoyed being in the jungle and the daily meals. They were delicious! I also loved the pool and being able to have peace and quiet every night.
