“Great Tulum pueblo option”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 25 January 2012

This was my second visit to La Mariposa, I've stayed several nights there while diving in the area. It is located in a Tulum neighborhood a couple of blocks off the main street (307). There is normal neighborhood noise such as barking dogs, and music but nothing that has ever kept me awake at night. Tulum is authentic compared to beach places and resorts which tend to isolate you from the real and engaging Mexican experience. Walking in the area in the evenings is safe and pleasant . My room was huge and always very clean and bright and included a kitchenette and great dining table. The WiFi works great in my room or the lobby! The people are always very nice and helpful. This place is a absolute bargain compared to the beach places 2 miles away. I wish it had a pool but then again I don't spend much time at the hotel anyway.

“Hurricane Rina missed Mariposa...”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 28 October 2011

We are currently staying at La Mariposa and are very happy with it. Hurricane Rina was bearing down on us but as we are away from the beach in a solid concrete hotel surrounded closely by other buildings we decided to wait it out. The staff were very concerned with our safety and did all the things needed to ensure it. They bought in extra water, issued us with candles and guarenteed we would be told immediately if we were to evacuate. Our little hotel soon filled up with evacuated guests from the beach! Good business for La Mariposa. We are simple travellers who appreciate village life and we are very content here. Being low season we only paid US$40 per night. As stated by previous guests, clean comfortable room with free wifi, nice setting and close to the main town area. Would stay here again. Excellent value.
