Expedia must have had the wrong image for this booking (I booked a cabin with a centered bed looking out to the ocean). Upon arrival I was offered a cabin behind the reception desk/next to the restaurant. The staff offered me a room with a sea view but it was again, very much not what I thought I was getting. I am only in town a few days and this truly broke my spirit a bit. I also didn’t realize upon booking that the hotel was in the reserve which requires a $25 usd fee to enter. This was my first time using Expedia for a booking and I don’t think I ever will again. The staff was sweet, though the one receptionist was clearly annoyed with me, but he did try and be helpful. If you’re booking also keep in mind that checkin is at 3pm & the bar/restaurant closes at 5pm.

The property is average, they shutdown the electricity twice day for a few minutes, at night some bugs get it to the room, they promise to bring sodas and ice to the room, but if you do no ask for them, they do not provide these, the hotel is located in the Jaguar park, if you go out of the area, you have to pay 3 dollar per person/day to re enter to the hotel/park, very bureaucratic process.

The area is lovely. The beach is wonderful. The room was a bit depressing for me and didn’t have AC. If I had a room with AC I would have stayed but unfortunately had to leave early. The staff is very nice.

Exactly the hotel we needed

My husband and I had such a unique and wonderful experience here. Yes, our room had no TV or AC, yet it was exactly what we needed - pure peace and relaxation. We booked the ground floor sea front room so we had the beach just steps away. The sound of the waves were soothing and waking up to the sunrise right in front of your room was priceless. We didn't wear shoes once while there since there are a bunch of restaurants within walking distance on the beach side - so we had no need to leave the hotel. We were even able to walk to the Tulum ruins from the beach.

Being charged $20 to enter the national park for an over $200 a night reservation seems silly. Property is rustic and charming if you love outdoor showers and the sort, ocean front is amazing. Staff we very helpful. Surprised that at this price point hot water was only available during certain hours.

Room was very basic, with mosquito net that had gaps, and whose rigging divided the room in such a way that it was a hazard. Door didn't lock well, and windows didn't open well. Outdoor bathroom not my taste.

Amazing experience. Will return again, hopefully soon. The staff were extremely helpful and friendly. Armen (Alberto) the front desk concierge, let me borrow his personal scooter to drop a friend off - talk about going above and beyond. The place is a paradise. Only thing is many restaurants and bars close early in this area.

Just returned from staying at Playa Esperanza Hotel in Tulum and felt like we stayed in paradise. It was truly beautiful and could not be happier. The first night our bungalow was probably 50 feet from the ocean. However the ceiling was a bit low for me ( I’m 6ft 2”) so switched to another equally gorgeous bungalow our remaining time there. Daniel and his staff were extremely kind and attentive. If you love nature and the sounds of waves and birds to fall asleep at night, this is the spot for you. Also the ocean was incredibly beautiful and warm to swim in. Can’t wait to return!

What was unique to me about the property was that it is just steps away from the beach. Staying here is a unique experience but you got to be ready to he minimalist room. Which is fine because the main attraction is the beach. Staff and services were 20/10 super friendly staff.
