It’s quite a new building so everything was still very new, clean and very well maintained. The beds are comfortable, big lockers, great pool and roof top, avocado toast and pancakes for breakfast, I could go on and on. Great value for the money! Best hostel I have ever stayed at.

Situated in Tulum, 3.1 km from Tulum Archeological Site, Mimosa Tulum features accommodation with an outdoor swimming pool, free private parking, a garden and a terrace. With a bar, the 4-star hostel has air-conditioned rooms with free WiFi. The property is 1.1 km from Tulum Bus station, and within 1.1 km of the city centre. What a wonderful place, perfectly located! I was visiting Tulum with my 6 year old daughter. We were welcomed by Sandy who was the absolute loveliest! The place is very clean, beautiful and we felt very safe. We enjoyed the pool and lounging in the sun. The vibe was chill and everyone, staff and other guests, were friendly and respectful. It was very quiet at night and we slept like babies!!! The AC worked well, nice spacious bathroom, water provided. We didnt eat on site but we did enjoy some cocktails by Miguel and Gustavo :) I will, without hesitation, return to Mimosa the next time i visit Tulum. Theres alot of very very good restaurants a short walking distance.

Situated in Puerto Morelos and with Playa Puerto Morelos reachable within 300 metres, Hostal Cuca Macuca features concierge services, non-smoking rooms, an outdoor swimming pool, free WiFi throughout the property and a shared lounge. Boasting a shared kitchen, this property also provides guests with a terrace. The accommodation offers airport transfers, while a bicycle rental service is also available.

The rooms have air conditioning, and some units at the hostel have a balcony. The hostel has some genuine vibes. Be it for the spectacular view from the kitchen or the amazing owners and staff or the group of temporary and long-term guests that I found there during my stay, I had a fantastic experience. It felt like an extended family, really. Spontaneous conviviality, meaningful good practices, some doggo showing up now and again - it all came together well, and I stayed longer than planed. Recommended!
