We thought of Tulum as long, white silky sand beaches: we love long walks at the beach. Yet, at Cabanas Copal there are rocks at the beach, so need to walks a 100 mts aside to have a nice swim and walking at the beach is sort of frustrating because after 500mts there are heavy rocks you just have to... more

We had one of the oceanfront huts. It was windy but beautiful. A large hermit crab joined us for one night. The town is great and the people are wonderful. What more could you want? We will be back. more

We stayed in the oceanfront cabana #22 in connection with an intimacy retreat group trip. The property is stunning, simple, and RIGHT ON THE OCEAN. It was wonderful to have our own standalone cabin with privacy, with the theraputic swish of ocean waves just outside 24/7. The cabins have full plumbing, but no electricity although the staff leaves ample large... more

We arrived on Saturday for our honey moon expecting rustic, romantic - well it was definately rustic, to say the least. But it was awesome. Yes, there were mosquitos, yes there are no conventional walls so ofcourse there are gonna be cute little lizards on the cieling but if you have an ounce of common sense, you'll be expecting this.... more

The service was very good, everyone very polite. Although the food is good, there´s not much variety at the restaurant (if you want to eat there all your stay), and it´s a bit expensive. The room the nicest view of the sea and it wasn´t very warm at all, but.... it needs painting and maintenance in small details, such as... more

As an avid traveler, and devoted tripadvisor researcher, you must be careful about the negative comments you read, such as the one below. My group and I had the pleasure to experience Cabanas Copal on June 13, 2009, for our Mayan Cosmic Wedding Ceremony, reception, and leisure. Everything about this hidden gem is amazing. I'm a very shrewd consumer, enjoy... more

We imagined this place would allow us to get closer to nature, but that was a mistake. We thought we knew what we were getting into : an eco resort without electricity and sea water but I don’t think you can ever really prepare yourself to what you discover when arriving : when we arrived and were taken to our... more

For those of you looking to plan a wedding that is beautiful and unique I must say that the Mayan ceremony offered by Maya Spa is AMAZING! My husband and I had our wedding at Cabanas Copal and they arranged everything for us. We had the ceremony on the beach with the very basics, just the 2 of us there,... more

After staying 2 nights at a cheap cabana at Zahra (read my review), I thought I'd treat myself to 2 more expensive nights at Copal. But it wasn't really much of a treat. The cabana was basically no different than the cheap one at Zahra, with the exception of being a bit larger, having its own bathroom and a partial... more
