Just back from a week of Cenote diving (April 2012) with Richie and Hairo and cannot recommend them enough. The diving was well organised, ran like clockwork and was 100% safe. The hotel is basic but has pleasant rooms, each with a safe, comfy bed and air conditioning. There is a small, sunny garden with a splash pool. The area... More

As a seasoned traveler to Tulum. I recently went there during a very busy time and was unable to stay at the beach Hotels I love. After asking a few local friends in Tulum the name Xibalba kept coming up. I went to Hotels.com and booked two rooms for me and friends. The rates were almost too good to believe.... More

We stayed 3 nights here and loved it. The place is German-owned/run - so you can be sure everything works as expected. Relaxed, informal atmosphere (it's a dive hotel), nicely appointed, very clean and spacious room with a proper shower, safe and a/c - couldn't ask for more. We were moving by car, so the parking slot right in front... More

Only stayed one night, but what a nice place. We pulled into Tulum (2 adults, 2 kids) w/o reservations. Bad idea. So fortunate Xibalba had a room (2 king beds, 1 single). Big room, good a/c, nice bathroom. Super clean. Great cooked-to-order breakfast, and good conversation with other guests. Next time we go to Tulum, we'll stay here. . .... More

We spent 2 weeks there to discover some more Cenotes, Cave Diving is really our passion… There is a lot to say about the hotel, starting with a very friendly and helpful staff, with an excellent service quality, our special...

This is great little boutique hotel. The staff is wonderful. The room we had for myself and 2 teenagers had 2 king beds and a double and was very spacious, it was $120/night with breakfast. My 17 year old son found Xibalba and I'm very glad he did. More

I spent a week, 4/11-4/18, at this hotel. Came to Tulum for cave diving instruction as part of research for a new series of novels. On arrival I was warmly greeted by Tomas, a Tulum native, who showed me my room. The room was spacious, immaculately clean, sparsely but elegantly furnished with king bed, table, chairs, wardrobe, bedside tables. No... More

If you are a technical scuba diver, Cave diver or like to single tank a Cenote, Xibalba can take care of your needs plus provide very good accommodations with the dive center and fill station right in the hotel. Owner and operated my Robbie and Aneke Schmittner, you will not find a more capable and friendly environment for divers. Robbie... More

This hotel is very clean, new, well-run, close enough to downtown restaurants that cater to tourists that it is a nice walk. The drawback is that downtown is 4km from the beach and it really isn't walkable from downtown (or this hotel) so you need to take a cab (which are plentiful and cheap - $50 pesos.) The staff is...
