What’s Special About This Resort
Perhaps one of the only places in Tulum where you’ll be greeted by iguanas and coatis, this adults-only resort feels like a hidden gem in the heart of a tropical jungle. Stone pathways, wooden bridges, and koi fish ponds contribute to the dreamy jungle vibes. While definitely a place to relax and unwind on the white-sand beach, there’s also plenty to see and do in and around the resort.
The all-inclusive package (Privileged Guest) includes unlimited food and drinks from a total of 7 dining establishments on-site, access to the fitness center, access to reserved loungers on the beach, all daily activities, and non-motorized water sports. Additional charges apply at the spa and RUAXA theater. More information on the all-inclusive package and options can be found here.
What To Do
Warm Caribbean weather and a gorgeous white-sand beach are the perfect combination for either relaxing on a lounger or going for a swim. Slather on the sunscreen and get out on the water! Go canoeing, kayaking, or snorkeling without ever having to leave the resort.
The pool area is a hot spot for daily activities such as aqua gym, yoga classes, water polo, and dancing lessons. Don’t forget to enjoy a nice cold drink from the pool bar.
There’s plenty to do in the evenings too. Take a stroll through the romantic resort grounds, watch professional dancers sway during a show, or listen to an impressive mariachi band performing in the lobby. Visit RUAXA for dazzling burlesque shows (additional charge).
The resort is in a prime location for exploring the historical ruins nearby. Head to the lobby to book your excursion to visit one of the seven wonders of the world – the Chitzen Itza! Most excursions include fun extras like ATVs, zip lining, and cenotes.
What To Eat
There’s something about gorgeous ocean views that make a dining experience all the more special. Visit BLoved for a warm cappuccino in the morning or some grilled seafood for dinner.
For comfort Italian food in a warm, intimate setting, visit the Toscana restaurant. For a romantic evening surrounded by mangroves and an enchanting cenote, head to the Terrace Tapas Lounge & Bar. You can’t leave Mexico without indulging in some traditional Mexican flavors, so be sure to try one of the delicious Mexican dishes at Adelita.
The Pool Bar and the Ma Loo smoothie bar are great options for grabbing a refreshing drink while you’re spending your days in the sun. The margaritas at The Daisy lobby bar are a guest favorite!
