    We enjoyed our stay at the Tropicalito Hotel because we we‘re right by the ocean and the beach! We liked to eat our breakfast with the ocean view :) The staff was really friendly and very easy to contact!

    I’m not really a fan of the neighborhood, it’s expensive and very touristy. I try to avoid hotel zones usually though

    The little pool on the roof deck was very nice; I could see the ocean from my room, easy check in, clean room, close to the beach

    No beach access directly. Beaches are “public” here meaning you can swim wherever you like, but if you want to sit on a chair (even at the hotel next door where they have “an agreement”) you will have to pay for the chair or purchase food/drink minimums there. Shower pressure was quite abysmal. Could definitely have used more than 4 hangers for clothes. Inconsistent wifi

    Cute boutique hotel. We chose the room with sea view and it overlooks the small pool platform. Ocean view/wave sounds are wonderful to fall asleep to. Beds/rooms clean and attended to daily. Fridge in room was a life saver. Gated entry. Kitchen available if you desire cooking. Free bottled water onsite with refillable jug for your room. Kind and responsive staff (often not onsite visibly but usually text back via what’s app promptly to address questions/needs). Plenty of storage areas in room for unpacking. Good a/c, WiFi is inconsistent but mostly available. Common spaces available for eating/working/realaxing. Even some cards and a board game avail for common use.

    Nothing, we wish we could have stayed longer!

    The location was central but away from the busy nightlife end of Tulum and has the most perfect view of the ocean from the rooftop pool. The staff were so kind and the rooms were comfortable and the A/C the best of our trip!

    The common kitchen is well equipped, but it would’ve been nice to have more space to cook / tables to place it on while you are cooking

    I recently stayed at Tropicalito in Tulum Beach and had a fantastic experience. The location is unbeatable. It's close to two beautiful beaches, which is quite rare in Tulum where many hotels claim private beach space. The price-quality ratio here is excellent; you really can't get much better than this. The staff at Tropicalito were incredibly helpful and welcoming, making us feel right at home. The common kitchen is a great feature, with all new equipment that made cooking a breeze. Despite being a fairly new hotel, Tropicalito is already doing very well. One of the highlights is the pool, which offers an amazing view that's perfect for relaxing. The hotel is also in a great area, close to good restaurants and bars, making it a nice place to stay. We didn't notice any noise or loud music, which I had read about in some other reviews. Our stay was peaceful and enjoyable. I wouldn't hesitate to stay here again. Highly recommended! ---

    The tap water is salty. That makes it difficult to shower or brush your teeth. Another thing with the shower is that the water comes from top with quite a weak pressure. Even washing your head is a challange.

    The location is great. We didn't meet any staff, it was a self service check in and cleaning took place when we were out. It's righ near the sea. You can see and smell the sea but it's not possible to swim since the hotel is on top of large rocks. There is pharmacy, market, bar and restaurants close by.

    Best option around. It’s an amazing space sorrounded by ocean, rocks, pool next to the ocean to see the sun come out. We have an amazing time and the staff was always really kind and attentive. Really fair price for a ocean front villa

    Next door (an other apartman) was very noisy but you can expect for this if you are coming to Tulum.. (and also Louis offered us to ask him anytime if we are disturbed) so we were fine, just be aware

    We had a great time here, enjoyed the pool and the beach which is very close. The shared kitchen is nice and you have also drining water. There is a nice bar across the street. Louis - the manager of the place - is really nice and helpful.

    The hot water did not work consistently. The patio did not have a view (a concrete wall blocked it). There was much noise at night from the hotel patio next door, literally 10 feet away. There is no "beachfront", just rocks. The pool was tiny and not very clean. There was little space to put away clothes. The safety box was (inconveniently) placed inches from the floor. The room was not always cleaned.

    We liked the location close to the ocean and plenty of restaurants. (Pothouse for breakfast, Matteos for dinner). The staff was friendly. We rented bikes and cycled (20 minutes) to the beautiful beaches at the national park and (45 minutes) to Gran Cenote. We took a half-day boat tour of the nearby Sian Kaan biosphere and loved it.
