My wife and I had a fantastic two night stay at Alaya. The resort is very conveniently located, with most rooms facing the beach. The staff, particularly Moritz, head of guest services, were exceedingly helpful, nothing being a problem.
My recommendation would be to spend a little bit more money and get one of the Ocean front villas, as the Gardenview villas get a bit of noise from the street.
Otherwise would highly recommend to anyone.

4 tips for savvy savings when booking a hotel in Tulum
Book for the cheapest times: The most budget-friendly period to visit Tulum is from September to November, when hotel prices tend to be lower.

During your visit, you can explore ancient ruins, enjoy the beautiful beaches, and partake in activities such as snorkelling, biking, and yoga. This timeframe not only offers great value for money but also provides a perfect opportunity for relaxation and romantic dining experiences by the sea.
Look for last-minute deals on Hotels.com: To discover last-minute deals to Tulum, you may visit the Deals or Last-Minute Deals sections on Hotels.com, where you could find discounted hotel rates as your travel date approaches.

Be flexible with dates: Prices may fluctuate depending on factors such as the hotel's location, star rating, and the time of year, so being flexible with your travel dates could help you save on your stay in a Tulum hotel. For those seeking unique accommodations, boutique hotels can provide a more personalised experience and potentially better value. When you book with Hotels.com, we will inform you whether the price for your chosen dates is above or below the average.
