Nestled perfectly in Soliman Bay, a cab ride from Downtown Tulum, the location was perfectly private, with the shared beach just steps out the back door. Maria and Daniel kept the house and grounds pristinely. We highly recommend the Manta Ray restaurant just up the beach! ##### AMY H.

The road getting down there is very bumpy and a bit treacherous, but once we were there, we had an amazing time. The pool and beach are gorgeous and Maria took such good care of us and the house during our stay. We also hired a chef for two meals through a recommendation from the concierge, and he was outstanding. Highly recommend this option, which was affordable and delicious! Property is close to town and the ruins and a short beach walk away from two restaurants. ##### Heather P.

A wonderfulsetting with many places to sit and relax. Mari and Jose kept the house and grounds in tip top shape. Beds were comfortable. We loved being able to quickly get to the beach. You do need water shoes if walking into the water in front of the villa. We went snorkeling and saw a large variety of fish and a couple of rays. Unfortunately the coral has died but some is slowly growing back. We had Vera as our chef for the week. With 2 babies with us it was so easy and the food was delicious and varied. D ##### Vaida H. Stayed 7 nights in Feb 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Paul K. 6 Jan 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Stunning Location The photographs do not do the home justice. Soliman Bay is fairly remote, you reach the home along a fairly bumpy dirt road, which may feel off putting, however it is short and there is a security gate before entering the properties. There is a stunning boutique hotel at the start of the bay, and aside from another beach restaurant (which only opened in December), there are no other commercial stores in the bay. Which was perfect for us. The newly opened bar/restaurant is amazing by the way. Possibly the best ceviche I have ever had. The house sits right on the beach, and we had every meal on the patio. The views are stunning. It is quiet, neighbours are quiet and respectful and the home is spacious and comfortable. Maria and Daniel who look after the home speak no English, but are the most generous and lovely people you will ever meet. Every morning the home was cleaned back to check in standard. This takes a lot of pressure off being parents :) All in all I would stay here again in a heart beat. ##### Paul K. Stayed 7 nights in Dec 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Anke V. 28 Sept 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Fabulous! It was 6 of us staying at this amazing property. It was our little beach gateway after attending a wedding in Merida. The property is as advertised....right on the beach. There is a pool behind the house on the non-beach side, which is perfect as you can spend the mornings in the pool when there is still a bit of shade and then you migrate to the beachside in the afternoon. As this is a private beach / gated community it is super quiet. As many other guests have pointed out the caretakers of the property are amazing, beyond attententive, and always ready to help...with anything!!! From keeping the place spotless (inside and out), to hanging up clotheslines for our washing to organizing drivers for day trips. And no, they don't speak English, which isn't a problem at all, just makes some good use of your miming skills, your basic Spanish and Google Translate ;-) To summarize: this is exactly as advertised! And we enjoyed every second of it! ##### Anke V. Stayed 4 nights in Sep 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Dylan G. 1 Mar 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Tres Delfines! We (party of 8- ages 5 thru 71) had a fantastic time at Tres Delfines. Arul did a great job communicating, and we appreciated the detailed directions to find the house. The house/groundkeepers, Maria and Daniel, were friendly and efficient in all they did. The house was spotless when we arrived, and they ensured it stayed that way. Overall the house is well equipped...and there was ample hot water in the bathrooms. Only complaint was there was no hot water in the kitchen. Beds were firm and comfortable. We loved the variety of seating areas and hammocks- no matter what time of day you could find either shade or sun. It was fairly windy several days, but with the pool on the back side (opposite of beach) it was protected from the wind. Pool was clean. Overall a great stay with great hosts. ##### Dylan G. Stayed 7 nights in Feb 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Janet N. 8 Jan 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Soliman Bay vacation The property is right on the water with loads of outdoor chairs and hammocks scattered around. It is a charming villa with beautiful tile work. The only two issues are 1: that it is difficult to swim from the beach directly in front of the villa as there is so much rock and coral to navigate. 2: The other is that the furniture could use some updating. The seating indoors is uncomfortable, particularly for older people. We spent 8 lovely nights. The maid and her niece were terrific and we appreciated all that they did that There was always enough fresh water to drink. We hired a private chef which I would highly recommend with small children. The kitchen is well supplied. The weather was perfect. The host was excellent in communicating with us ##### Janet N. Stayed 8 nights in Dec 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Lior A. 9 Sept 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Beautiful Location, Peaceful Stay, Amazing Staff This property is about 15mins away from both Tulum and Akumal, lots to do nearby. It's a 7 min drive down a gravel road from the highway and in the neighborhood there is a hotel restaurant (we didn't get a chance to go), not much else, but this makes it very quiet/private/feels very safe. You definitely need to be prepared as far as food and needs because it's a bit of a trip to get anything as far as groceries (we had some groceries delivered on arrival). What we loved: The pool is so refreshing and is good for young kids, our 3 yr old could stand in the shallow part and loved playing there. They have a crib and highchair. Property supplies enough drinking water in large jug. We had Chef Vera make us dinner 3 nights and this was the best food we had on the trip. Highly recommended. Marie kept the house spotless every day. The beach was nice, some rocks as you wade in but otherwise very calm, kayaks were great. Saragasso was not terrible most days and there was service that cleaned it up in the morning. The AC in the bedrooms works well. What could have been better: No AC in the common area which made it not as pleasant to be together in the evenings after dinner or in the morning while eating breakfast inside. Would be nice to have some sort of AC there. Without the chef, would have been hard to prepare meals because there are no basics like oil, etc stocked in the kitchen. Would have been great to have small supply of kitchen basics and small amount of laundry detergent. ##### Lior A.

Had a wonderful stay here in Tulum. The location was perfect. Beautiful beach in a calm protected bay. The water was crystal clear which made for easy swimming for our five year old daughter. Water shoes are helpful to get past some coral near the shore. We snorkeled right from shore and saw some cool fish but it is best to take the kayaks to the reef nearby as we saw alot more fish out there. The ocean was extremely warm which was nice. There was a small amount of sargassum but this was cleaned up every morning by the grounds keeper. I recommend bringing your own snorkel set and sandtoys if you have little ones. The house was open bright and authentically Mexican. Maria kept the house spotless and was always happy and smiling. The beds and rooms are very comfortable and each bedroom has an AC unit. We had Chef Baara cook for us during our stay and the food was exceptional! His meals were by far the best we had in Tulum. Everything he used was so fresh and flavorful. He cooked something special every day for our daughter as well. We highly recommend his service. We were hesitant with the price but after comparing to to cost of eating out and groceries it was actually very reasonable. Our stay would have not been the same without him! Solomian bay is a great location in Tulum. It's away from the noisy area but I would recommend a car to get around. There is a nice restaurant in the bay but pricey. Overall best holiday ever and we will be back!!! ##### Jessica G.

We had never visited the Tulum area and I did a random search for a place to stay. I found many but Casa Tres Delfines checked most of our boxes. The home is just as you see it in the listing. The home fit our needs perfectly. It is located in a nice quite community just minutes away for the busy town of Tulum which was perfect for us. The beach and pool were perfect! There is a very nice restaurant located at the entrance in the same community. We had dinner there a couple of nights. Gives you an option of not going into town for meals. It is right on the beach which fit our liking perfectly. Now for the wonderful staff on property. Maria is so wonderful and is there for you no matter your needs. Within reason. Maria kept the home picked up and very clean daily. She also helped us several times when we couldn’t figure out how to use a couple of the appliances. She is so very friendly and helpful. She made our stay so special and enjoyable. Daniel kept the grounds in immaculate shape the whole time we were there. He is also a pretty good handyman! Both Maria and Daniel added so much value to our stay at Casa Tres Delfines which made our trip even better that just having a beautiful home to stay in. Thank you Maria and Daniel!!! The owner Arul was very responsive and informative before and during our stay. Thank you Arul!!! Your home and staff are absolutely wonderful and we enjoyed our stay even more than what we had hoped for. Until we meet again! ##### David W.

The owner Arul provided amazing property and local area information in advance as well as spot on directions to the property.The on-site team of Mari and Jose were very welcoming and work very hard to take care of the property and deal with any issues that might come up during your stay.The house is huge, bright and very well maintained. The pool and waterfall were fantastic; we used it every day during out stay.A very short walk down the beach is two great spots if you do not feel like cooking. 1) Manta Ray Hotel has a great breach front spot with a nice causal menu and happy hour specials. 2) The Pandano Restaurant at the Jashita Tulum Hotel was amazing, we had our 25th anniversary dinner there.The property is just as beautiful as the photos show in the listing. Unfortunately, during our stay there was a huge amount of rioting seaweed along the beachfront, and it was impossible to use the beachfront and gain access to the water. The odor of the seaweed was strong as well, making sitting outside hard at times. Not the owner’s fault, just bad timing on our part, I guess.Truly a beautiful place. ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/a1ac2b66-c879-4a33-9bb7-ca31372b6174-1761550145445.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### R C.

We loved our 9-day stay at Tres Delfines. The beach and outdoor areas were beautiful and we spent most of our time outside.

However, the amount of sargassum seaweed inundating the beach front, even with the cleaning efforts, was monumental and a significant downside during our entire stay. It is a very unfortunate situation the property and owner is experiencing. The volume of seaweed on the beach and in the adjacent ocean made it unable for us to swim near the property or even access the water/reef via the provided kayaks without carrying them way down the beach to where there was little seaweed. Also, the strong sulfurous smell of the decomposing seaweed made it unpleasant a lot of the time to sit outside, even sometimes in the pool area on the opposite side of the house from the beach. We requested some indoor fans to help with the smell in the house, which the owner immediately provided. They did help, but at times the smell still made its way in, even into the bedrooms.If not for the sargasso, this would have been a lovely location to stay at. ##### LoveTo T.

The layout works well for families with different spaces to relax. The pool area is like a sheltered oasis and waking up to the sea view is an experience you can never tire of. Within easy access of Tulum (with a car) we were able to venture out easily as well as enjoy the peace and quiet at the villa. The caretakers are near by , discrete but keep the villa clean and look after you as needed. Benito , the chef services are to be recommended. ##### Sara G.

Last minute trip planned but everything worked out amazing. Arul was very easy and patient to work with. The house was beautiful, cozy and charming. The private beach and community was everything that we hoped for and more. William and the other workers did an amazing job cleaning up the sea grass every day. Maria so very kind and cleaned the house everyday. Unbelievable! Benito cooked us breakfast and dinner and was better then the restaurants we visited while in tulum. I loved the seclusion of the house and waking up to the sunrises every morning. Such a beautiful stay for a recharge from life. I will definitely come back in stay. Mucho Gracias! ##### Ivy A.

The location is ideal for privacy and feels secure. The view is stunning and there is an abundance of wildlife to enjoy. The amenities at the property were sufficient and there are services to really enhance your stay. I highly recommend Chef Bonito. Maria and her brother are both great and really do their best to keep the house in order. Of course, it's another record breaking year for Sargassum in the Caribbean, but we were lucky to have relatively clean oceans and beaches on our arrival. If you do stay here, I recommend taking Arul's word and kayaking out to the buoy to snorkel. The coral is very much alive here and it's worth the experience. Arul is above average when it comes to communicating with guests, which definitely improves the experience. We would certainly bring our family here again, it was a great trip. ##### Stephen G.
