We stayed in PDC and didn't care for the beaches, too busy and some beach errosion, Xpu Ha beach is wonderful! Not busy and perfect for the kids because its in a bay so no waves and white soft sand. The La Playa Xpu Ha restaurant is perfect for a casual day at the beach. Food was pretty good and... More

My wife and I discovered the Xpu-Ha Beach Club on our recent honeymoon at the Catalonia Royal Tulum. We took the short 200 yd walk south to check it out, and felt like we had walked into a Corona commercial. Lots of beach chairs, hammocks and palapas, a rustic Mexican beach bar with swings for barstools and a restaurant that... More

The beach itself is lovely. There are several properties along this beautiful expanse of beach. Unfortunately, the Xpu Ha Beach club detracts completely from the experience. They crowd in numerous tables and chairs, for which they charge a fee, a percentage is deducted from your food and beverage order. The food was the worst we've had in the whole area... More

This is a great beach club and an ok bar and restaurant. The beach is white sand and deep. There is a multitude of types and beach chairs and umbrellas. There is a minimum or a charge for the chairs depending on the type of chair. The restaurant is ok; the best is the pollo quesadillas. On Saturday and Sunday... More

My husband and I travel to puerto aventuras several times a year and this is the beach club we frequent during our visits. It is beautiful and well maintained. The area is somewhat secluded and it feels as if you have your own special place. They serve everything you could want from snacks (nachos, tacos, hamburgers) to full meals (stuffed... More

This is an awesome beach and restaurant! The beach is pristine and well kept. The facilities are well maintained, and the restaurant makes great ceviche. We ended up at La Playa since we were looking for a place to go swimming since the Mayan Palace beach was rocky and not suitable for swimming. This is truly a hidden gem along... More

Our favourite beach. Lovely clean white sand. Food overpriced and served cold then had the cheek to include 15% which the waiter pocketed. We were under the impression that tips were for ALL the staff which the box which had "propina"printed on was for.In the five countries in which I live only Mexico has this habit. Restaurants in the other... More

Dear Arpora457 We are very sorry you did not have a great time at Xpu Ha Beach Club & Restaurant. About the gratuities, this is a suggestion and as you say, it's very common in most of the restaurants at Mexico, but of course you don't have to give any money to the waiter if you did not enjoyed the...
