boutique hotel that 20 years old we were ocean front and it was very windy so we could sleep with the winds open and hear the waves which great no ac during the day which was fine for us because of the wind ac only ran during the night there was a hot water issue but that was resolved price was reasonable you get 2 “half” cups of coffee with the included breakfast a 3rd half cup will cost you $3.50 after 2 days of this I insisted on a full cup! Food preparation ladies were rude. Taxi service in Tulum is ridiculous for example $25 us to go 4 miles will probably be our 1 and only trip to Tulum we travel Mexico a lot FYI new Tulum airport is very nice

We stayed here 7 years ago and had a great experience in a standard room, this time we upgraded to a room with a balcony and a private little pool overlooking the ocean, and we paid good money for the upgrade. The pool had no movement, still water that was dirty, so we did not use it. It lacked little things like hooks in the bathroom to hang your towels, a full length mirror to see how you look like before leaving, a table to put whatever on, computer, food, etc…we were so excited for the upgrade as a treat as we never do that because of money, but it was our anniversary, so we decided to splurge, we wish we stayed in a standard room instead.

We had the most incredible time at this boutique hotel! Extremely clean, excellent service with everyone. Our check in staff was Arnold and he was extremely helpful and kind with everything. Our hotel was on the beach front so it was just magical waking up to the ocean everyday. Before coming in, David reached out via WhatsApp to help us with reserving restaurants and providing recommendations. We would definitely stay here again!

it was a relaxing location, the pictures dont do it justice, this hotel is beautiful and if you are thiking about it you wont be disappointed. it was our first time and Mexico and this was the perfect location. We found that using the fan meant we never needed the AC so there was no issue with that at all. We will be staying here again next time we are in Tulum and the breakfast was perfect every day!

Prepare to your own bags up 3 flights of stairs -
My recent stay at La Posada del Sol in Tulum was extremely disappointing. It was a disastrous experience compared to my previous visits to other boutiques in Tulum. The service was nearly non-existent, and the staff's rudeness was astonishing. To make matters worse, we were left without water for showers or basic hygiene, which is unacceptable for any accommodation. What made the situation even more frustrating was the staff's apparent awareness of our hardships but their refusal to acknowledge or address them. This last visit was a far cry from the amazing experiences I had at other places in Tulum. I would strongly advise against staying here until they make significant improvements in their service and infrastructure."

Really nice hotel. Eco friendly and quiet with beach access. We received complementary breakfast as a promotion for the season and was great! Relaxing area, nice staff, you feel free and if you need assistance staff is willing to assist even being just a few of them since is a small place. A/C just during night time and water on faucet is salty, but some fresh water is provided and market within walking distance were you can buy extra water if needed.

I have stayed here a few times before but I particularly like my stay this time around. First, I was greeted by friendly staff and was surprised by an upgrade to an ocean front view room with a private pool. The room looked recently upgraded, very clean, with lots of light, a private pool and lounge area outside in a terrace area. The room was spacious and felt private yet close to everything. I love the area where La Posada is located because you have direct access to the beach and launches with umbrellas to enjoy the view and spend a whole day by the beach. The reservation included breakfast. The portions were good and tasted delicious. I am very picky with my coffee but the coffee they gave me was on point. I would recommend this place for couples or a solo traveler or small group ( I have stayed here with my 2 sisters before). Next time I am in Tulum, will keep the tradition of staying here. Pros: location, staff, room facilities, quiet

Perfect stay for a night on our honeymoon! The rooms were clean and lovely, and we had a nice private pool on the balcony. The air conditioning worked super well and there was a nice private-ish beach on the property. The staff were friendly and accommodating, helping us make dinner reservations and recommending the best nightlife in Tulum! We would definitely stay here again!

From the moment I booked this hotel, I was in touch with the property using WhatsApp. It was a great experience. Gabriel and David, both of whom work in the front desk, are super friendly. Gabriel helped upgrade my room to one with a plunge pool. When we arrived at the hotel, went straight out to see the beach. Great location. My boys absolutely loved it. The hotel is beautiful and unique. The room was simple, modern looking in a unique way and just perfect. Our room was on the top floor and completely private patio. In the morning, looking at the sunrise, from my patio was just a unique experience. The room was very clean. The breakfast was great and hit the spot daily. The 3 ladies who work there were so nice and friendly. We got the eggs, pancake and yogurt granola bowl daily. Super fresh and tasty. Gabriel arranged all daily activities / tours I wanted. We went to Chichen Itza as well as Sian Kaan. The fact that it’s a boutique hotel is that they help you make all the arrangements. He also arranged for the taxi to take us to the meeting location and back. Gabriel also arranged for the bicycle rental and got a smaller bike for my younger son. I wished I could have stayed there forever… it’s that nice and beautiful. If I ever get the chance, I will definitely go back there. It was a wonderful experience.

Overpriced hotel
Overpriced, frustrating service and rooms could use some updates. As demand for lodging has surged in Tulum, I imagine this place has simply raised their prices following the market boom without actually upgrading their service or updating their rooms. Check-in and check-out are slow because the 1-person hotel staff also has to work the storefront selling tourist items to passerbys. If a customer is browsing the store, you'll have to wait. Make sure you check your bill, as they also double charged us, which we fortunately caught at check-out. The rooms leave a lot to be desired. Very limited hot water and loud all times of day/night (most rooms have windows onto the one road that serves the beach, hotels, and restaurants). Furniture and fixtures need updating. Could use more light and a fan? There are better options for your money nearby - look elsewhere!

This is a great safe quiet hotel right on the beach. It is a boutique hotel so it's very small. The room we had was amazing BUT there was no way to close the bathroom door (we had to keep putting the trash can to try to close it which didn't really work). The bathroom was very large and the shower worked well. We had a balcony with an outdoor tub. Just note, the tub outside cannot be filled with hot water only cold water (we asked). We only dealt with David and he was terrific! He helped us set up our daily tours (we would pay a deposit to him and he would register us for whatever tour we wanted and we would pay the rest to the tour company). He was helpful in choosing places to visit, means of transportation, and getting a taxi. He made the trip enjoyable and easy! He was great I highly recommend you contacting him and asking for his help with tours/transportation/recommendations! The hotel was VERY clean and our room was cleaned daily.

The particular room we had at the Posada del Sol, with its own plunge pool, clear view of the sea, and a strong breeze day and night, was perfect. Every member of the staff was friendly and competent. The Posada’s location was great: it’s in the first cluster of restaurants, boutique hotels, specialty shops, and convenient stores in Tulum’s beach hotel zone. And, by the way, at least in February, 2023, a taxi into Tulum town was only about $17, not the $25 we had been led to expect. As we had been warned, the seaweed made the ocean unattractive for swimming for us (but not to others), but it did not interfere with beach sunbathing. In short, La Posada del Sol is wonderful.

What a unique piece of property. You feel a sense of wholesomeness despite it's size and not having its own restaurant or bar. You are so central and close to all your basic and non-basic needs! I traveled with a mixed group of men and women both which were skeptical about safety which was quickly put to rest the night we arrived. The next day even the women were comfortable enough to go off and walk the town, shops, markets and cafes on their own. Upon waking, the best home cooked breakfast to your liking it immediately available and TOTALLY worth it! Close enough to walk to party areas like Papaya Playa Project or Azulik but far enough to sleep in complete serenity! It absolutely caught us all by surprise how PERFECT this place was! 5/5

We had a lovely stay at Posada Del Sol, the staff was overly accommodating and we really enjoyed our time here. Our room was great, opened up to the beach and very "tulum" vibe. The only thing I would mention is the rooms are dark so getting ready at night before dinner was a bit of a challenge but otherwise would stay again!
