The tranquility and the friendly staff made my stay memorable but the room we stayed in had several holes in the roof which made my kids scared

The place was great, but could use some renovations. The pool was very dirty. Overall the service was good though, Paulina at the bar was amazing, gave us some great recommendations and made great drinks.

Great location! Amazing oceanfront view!

We had an amazing time!! The staff and service was excellent. Highly recommend and looking forward to come back and stay at Playa Canek. Thanks again!! Sandra & Jessica
Sandra, 3-night trip

8/10 Very good

We had a wonderful stay with Playa Canek! The staff is incredibly kind and helpful, and you cannot beat walking from your room to a perfect beach with soft sand and crystal clear water. Our AC didn’t work one the nights we were there, and we couldn’t adjust the temperature during our stay when it was on, but this was pretty minor and otherwise we had a really wonderful time. Would stay here again!

My beach front room, the only thing I didnt like waws that they shut down the power during the day

10/10 Exceptional

We stayed for 11 nights and had a fantastic time. The hotel is a wonderful place to have a vacation. Paulina in such an amazing hostess. Bruno is a wonderful owner and host. The staff are all super helpful and friendly. This is a small family owned hotel with that special touch. Do not expect all areas to have personnel at all times. But they are easy to find and so very helpful. The access to the beach is perfect. Our room on the third floor was so beautiful with an amazing view of the beach, sunrises and moon rises. We would highly recommend.

6/10 Good

Only if your paying less than $100

A/C use is restricted. Only works from 8pm to 6am. Wifi and signal are awful. water in the room is not fresh water, i know it is "eco friendly" but you do not want the taste of salt water when you brush your teeth. Beach is very nice, but the restaurant closes at 4pm. Parking in all of Tulum is an issue.

Playa Canek

Everything was great. It was a very small hotel with beach bar & restaurant. Expect to pay around 100 pesos for a beer and 250 pesos for a cocktail. although I brought my own beer to the beach area. Air conditioner was shut off around 9 AM until 7 PM.. Electricity was shut off for a few hours here, and there during the day, but not all day. The room was very clean and the hot water was excellent with lots of pressure. The nights were very quiet and easy sleeping. The breakfast was just basic with eggs,toast and a little bit of fruit and juice or coffee. The staff was very friendly at all times. And it was an excellent location on the beach, very clean, and there was a man there cleaning up seaweed, but there was hardly any to begin with.(it depends on the time of the year with the seaweed.) I would stay here again.
Kevin, 3-night trip

2/10 Poor

This is a bare minimum kind of place. Much of the time there will be no internet and often no power. It is difficult to find someone working for the hotel if you have a problem. I'm allergic to mold and had major issues with my asthma and allergies. I paid half through expedia and showed the expedia receipt but they said they never got it. So i had to pay the full price again.
Mari, 2-night trip

2/10 Poor

This hotel is a scam. We prepaid for our two night stay in full, on Expedia with itinerary numbers and confirmation numbers to prove it. The manager refused to give us a room, claiming he was in some sort of feud with Expedia and wasn’t getting paid. He demanded we pay him directly, AGAIN for the same room. Over an hour on the phone with Expedia, and Expedia told us to just pay again for the room, and that they’d refund us later. Guess what, Expedia lied and refused to refund us after the trip. We had to contest the charges with our credit card company and weeks after our trip we’re still fighting it out between Expedia who lied, our credit card company, and the hotel which doesn’t respond to anyone by phone or email. AVOID AT ALL COSTS. It’s a SCAM

le falta mucho mantenimiento al hotel, estabamos en el 3er piso y las escaleras eran inseguras, habia muchisimos mosquitos, y habia una cucaracha grande en la habitacion

Eco-friendly not ideal for beach front

Directly on the beach. Walk from the sand right into your room. Although cute setup, the sand makes for messy floors. It rained the night we stayed so not the most ideal conditions. Rooms are spacious aong with bathroom. There is only 1-2 staff available at any given time. Being eco-friendly, the AC is only on from 8pm-7am nightly. The sargazo/seaweed was very bad during our stay and the town or hotels so not clean their part of the beach so we couldn't get any use of beachfront access. Beach bar area and seating was not open as the weather did not cooperate. The road along the hotel was relatively private. On the other hand the breakfast was included and good portion and individually made. Area food trucks and restaurants are nice but expensive.

Lisbeth Velasco, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Absolutely perfect for a no-frills beach trip. The staff was phenomenal, friendly, and helpful. Service was great and the staff also was great at sharing local info and recommendations. Couldn’t be easier to walk out of your hotel room and onto the beach with a full bar and cozy beach beds. Gave four stars on facilities only because the AC was down one night because of a power outage so that was a hot night, but was there for 5 nights total with no issues.

It's a very small place with a lovely caretaker and his lovely dog. We loved going out for beach walks accompanied by the super friendly and obedient dog.
Charles, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Y’all the staff was so nice. I LOVED this property. The beach is directly behind the hotel. The only downfall is because this is an eco hotel, the air only works during certain times. But it was worth the stay and price!

Perfekt för lugnt par/familj

Bra läge. Snäll och trevlig personal. Perfekt för par/familj som inte är ute efter fest. Bra att man fick låna solstolarna. Om man skall klaga över något kan man önska lite mer utav rummets faciliteter såsom dusch (svag stråle/dåligt munstycke) och trångt vid toaletten. Hade varit väldigt skönt med ett myggnät, vi köpte på affären men hade problem att hänga upp pga då kunde inte takfläktet vara på...

Hade ett fantastiskt rum kändes som i jungeln 5 meter från stranden. Paulina som jobbade i strandbaren var fantastisk och gav mig många fina tips.
