We really really liked that place! We went with the kids and it was super! The location is really nice, there's a shared kitchen and living room, the staff is really nice and we felt a little bit like home! You can walk in the principal street of Tulum where there's a lot of restaurants and shops. Don't except to be in a 4-stars hotel and you will really enjoy the place!

Super friendly people. Great management, but the sheets were cheap and not the right size and kept pulling off the bed. Steps to the bathroom could be slippery at times, and I was afraid I might fall, especially during the night.

Country in the city
Audrey was a welcoming hostess. A breakfast of waffles or pancakes, fruit, juice, & coffee is included. A shared kitchen is spacious, clean, and well equipped. Our cabana was a disappointment. The door didn’t fit and the mosquito net around the bed wasn’t effective as we needed the fan to keep cool and it blew the netting open. The shared bathrooms were clean with plenty of hot water. The courtyard was lovely with lots of foliage to provide shade, and lawn chairs and a small table at every cabana.We loved the area and it was easy to take a bus to the beach.

Great location
Perfect location if arriving by bus. Place is charming. I had a little casita. Shared bathrooms a few steps away. Great for price. Only issue is people talking loudly at tables near kitchen pretty late which was annoying.

Friendly hostel
Really nice hostel. We stayed in private room with own bathroom. Breakfast was good. Friendly owners and staff. 15 min walk to town. Collectivos available to get to the beach. From ADO bus station, face the road and turn right, 10-15 min walk, just past the little hospital.

Breakfast is excellent
This place is a bit out of town, but a 10-15 min walk to all of the main shops, restaurants and bars. You can rent bikes from next door, also a few doors down do your laundry for cheap. Staff here were really friendly and helpful, made an amazing breakfast. We stayed in a cabana, which is cheap but tiny and baking hot!

Que Bueno!
One could tell from the few scant photos RT has posted on Expedia that this was the kind of place we wanted to stay in Tulum a. because it was very affordable and b. it looked awesome fun for our 8year old to get lost in. The jungle courtyard was so much more lush than I thought it was going to be, very, very well kept up and SOOOO relaxing with a curving path leading past a group hammock station to a covered dining area and an open breezy dining hall/reception. Colorful paint abounding, lizards and bats scooting and a sonorous chorus of tropical birds to wake us each morning. Pancake or waffle and fruit breaky each a.m. and smiles, smiles, smiles.... Avery and Audrey were so welcoming as was Bella and Snacks! We had a great stay. And when, at the annual start date of a Mayan festival taking place on the Zocalo (our last night there), which comes with perhaps the very loudest public broadcast of sound I've ever heard - even loud by Mexican standards I'd say, who had three pair of earplugs waiting for us at our cabana door when we returned earlier in the day??? Our wonderful, thoughtful hosts. THANK YOU FOR THOSE! They helped! Highly recommend if you enjoy saving some $$$ as well as the international hosteling vibe on tap here. Great fun.

Super helpful stall
Great jungle atmosphere in the city. Amazing free breakfast of pancakes or waffles with a variety of fresh fruits. And your hosts are always checking to see if you are happy or need anything. Spot on referrals for bike rental, BBQ chicken and even a dentist. Good age range of guests from all over the world providing a chill social vibe.

Simple, clean facility. Excellent staff.
This is a simple place with no frills. We stayed in a cabana towards the reception area which was super clean but no frills. Near the reception area is good because the wifi works in your room and you are next to the community bathroom so you can just walk next door. However you are near the reception area so you are near the noose of people visiting and using the showers. The man who makes the food and helps you with any questions is amazing he went above and beyond to help us and made the stay so nice. Walking distance to the main area of shopping and food and groceries.

Endroit agréable
Accueil très sympathique et à l'écoute, vous guidera et vous conseillera. Nous étions dans une cabane, pas de climatisation mais un ventilateur qui a suffit. cuisine commune équipée. Réfrigérateur qui pourrait être nettoyer. Salles de bain communes propres mais pas d'eau chaude. endroit très sympathique on se croirait dans la jungle et plus ou moins calme en fonction des autres touristes.

Un oasis de convivialité
Nous avons beaucoup apprécié nous retrouver dans cet oasis de verdure. Le cadre était super et le personnel vraiment accueillant. En plus il y a une très bonne ambiance parmi les voyageurs c'est très convivial. Seul bémol: nous n'avons pas très bien dormi à cause de la chaleur. Le ventilateur ne suffit pas et la moustiquaire ne couvrait pas toit le lit. Sinon très bonne adresse et bon prix.

Secret garden in the end of the main road
The location was a bit too far walk from the central, even though on the Main Street. To buy water, for example, needed to walk around 700 meters. Other guests were not open for talking and some of them straightly mean, even though we just arrived. The garden was beautiful, but the general atmosphere off. Great staff though, wanted to make sure everything was ok.

Super séjour au Rancho Tranquillo. À tel point que nous allons finalement y rester 4 nuits de plus que prévu ! Un petit havre de fraîcheur et de tranquillité au milieu de la poussière et de la chaleur de Tulum Pueblo. Nous avions un bungalow familial, très bonne literie, petite terrasse privative et hamacs à dispo dans le jardin. Petit déjeuners agréable. Une adresse à l'ambiance "routarde" que nous avons beaucoup appréciée.

Lugar lindo, alejado del centro de Tulum, pero caminable (10-15 mins caminando al centro). Dueño muy amable y atento al igual que resto de trabajadores. Resto de gente hospedada muy amigable, buen ambiente.
