5 reasons to choose a luxury hotel for your stay in Tulum, Mexico

Before skipping to the best luxury hotels in Tulum, we decided to make a list of 5 reasons to choose a luxury hotel for your stay in Tulum for those who are still unsure whether to choose an average hotel or upgrade their hotel experience. Ready to discover them? 

Proximity to the - private - beach

This is one of the service every luxury hotel in Tulum offers to their guests. So, regardless of the rooms or suites, you will have the privilege to be a few steps away from the sand of a beautiful beach in Tulum. This is very advantageous and yes – it will make you save money. Why? Staying in a beach club in Tulum can have a high price. By having a hotel with its own private beach, you will save the money for the rental of sunbeds and you will have the availability to enjoy luxury beach and pools whenever you want during your stay.

Beautiful Rooms with views

In addition to a beautiful beach, you will be able to enjoy your stay in incredibly well decorated rooms or suites depending on your needs. A thing you will always be able to count on will be the amazing views from every window of your room – this will really make you feel on vacation! This will also make you live the site of the hotel in a totally different way, a lot more in fusion with the nature of the beach and the jungle around you and will help you disconnect from your life back home. 

Top service for the guests

As you could have read or lived in other travels, luxury hotels and resorts will treat you like a king. In fact, they provide their guests incredible service to satisfy every need and request. From a well decorated room to a refined restaurant, from a bar with multiple cocktails to a spa and a pool to make you relax, every detail will be on point. The staff of the hotel will make you feel the luxury vibe and make you feel like at “casa“.

Spa and pool included in the price

This is another aspect that will decrease the price of your stay. Many people think that paying a higher price for the hotel they are staying in is a waste of money – well, that’s not alway the case.

We first talked about beach clubs, but what about the pools and the spa? Maybe you will not always be in the mood for the beach and you will want to chill by the pool in a more relaxed outdoor scenario. That’s totally understandable. And what about the spa? Of course you will have to pay for the massages, but hey – many luxury hotels and resorts offer their guests the free access to the spa’s sauna or turkish bath and this will definitely be good for your stay’s budget.

Great restaurant to discover Mexican cuisine

It happens often to us during our stay, so let’s face it – sometimes you are lazy at night and you want to dine at the hotel. This can be a great experience as a bad one. In luxury hotels and resorts you will not have any risks of having this experience turning bad. In fact, every property has a great restaurant and bar merged in the beautiful outdoor space. The chefs are great and will offer you an incredible dining experience. Make sure to check it out – sometimes it can be the best restaurant in the area you are staying in!
