We stayed at Cabanas Tulum for 14 nights including over Christmas. This is obviously long enough to get a good idea of all aspects of the place and we were very pleased with our choice. We stayed in the Beach front cabanas as we travelled with our 2 year old and this is where the family section is based. The... More

We enjoyed the 'Gilligan's Island' bungalow kitschiness of some of the other hotels on this strip of beach, but this hotel is exactly what we were looking for. It's directly on a white sand, coconut palm studded, beach. The original beachront rooms are clean and sparsely decorated, but comfortable. The patio with chairs and hammock lacked some privacy, because it... More

Stayed at Cabanas Tulum for 6 nights in early January. The property is very nice and the beach in front of the hotel is pure bliss - white sand, and the right amount of shading palm trees. In fact, walking both North and South of the hotel, it seemed as the overall fantastic beach was not as paradise-looking anywhere else... More

When we arrived, we were offered an upgraded new accommodation at Cabanas Tulum - the Beach front Deluxe Superior huge room, with a private roof top with a white concrete hot tub; ocean front ... an amazing place to stay in Tulum. We were one of the first guests in the new, just finished rooms. We loved the minimalist white... More

My husband and I decided to stay at Cabanas Tulum based on the other reviews and we weren't disappointed. We're not picky travelers but there were a few things we weren't willing to compromise. The two things important to us were cleanliness and having our own bathroom without paying too much. While we think their normal rates are a little... More

We stayed here for 3 weeks from 19th November until 10th Dec 2011 and loved every minute. We were in room 23 which is beachfront second from end furthest away from the new bungalows being built. I have to say a big thank you to all the staff who couldn't do enough to help (not that we had any problems)... More

We ended up at Cabanas Tulum mostly by chance as it was the only place that had availability for our last minute trip. We stayed in the deluxe beachfront rooms. The good - the rooms are amazingly located right by the beach, but still with a nice degree of privacy. We walked the entire beachfront strip and our rooms definitely... More

Luxury suite is missing covered terrace, so if you like to be outdoors you are out of luck. Suite is missing basics including blankets, so we slept under beach towels and are planning to dig out our coats we had on coming from Chicago for the next night. During night we were woken a few times by local hotel representative... More

Dear guests, we are sorry to read you didn't enjoy your stay at Cabañas Tulum. You had booked a Deluxe beach front and at check in were given the option to upgrade to one of our new rooms, the Superior Deluxe, for free. You had seen the room and its location and knew you were the first guests to stay... More

To preface, I loved my stay at Cabanas Tulum. I would definitely return, particularly if I were going in the summer and wanted the A/C and were again assured a second floor deluxe room. The high points were: (1) the private roof deck; (2) the free breakfast with tons of options that could essentially replace lunch since it went to... More

We booked at Cabanas Tulum after having such a lovely stay at their sister property, La Tortuga in Playa del Carmen. We had a great experience here too, if somewhat different. The view from our room was amazing, we had a beach front view and we literally were on the beach front! The restaurant and bar were great, especially the... More
