Zarezervuj si to, pokud You want the intimacy of a private beachfront villa without the chaotic party vibes of the main strip.

Proč to lidé milují

Only 12 rooms means you're not fighting for a daybed
Rooftop terrace offers the highest 360-degree views on the beach road
Direct access to a quieter stretch of sand away from the major clubs

Rychlý přehled: A stunningly designed sanctuary that feels like a wealthy friend's beach house, provided you can stomach the Tulum price tag and occasional low water pressure.

Recenzoval @Mistertravel.k: I’m still dreaming about the mornings here. Waking up in that massive bed, walking straight out to the private pool, and just listening to the palms sway—it’s the ultimate reset. If you love design and quiet luxury, this spot in Tulum is an absolute must-visit.

Host, který zde pobýval, řekl

The hype

Reviewers are obsessed with the staff (Manuel gets name-dropped constantly) and the 'private villa' atmosphere.

Reality check

Even at $600+ a night, you might face 'new hotel' issues like finicky hot water or construction touch-ups.

You hate fighting for pool chairs
You prioritize design and aesthetics over massive resort amenities
You want to be near the action but sleep in silence

Čistota & Údržba

9.3

Housekeeping: Daily service is thorough; staff are praised for keeping sand out of the rooms.
Bathroom hygiene: Immaculate grout and surfaces, though the water pressure issue is a mechanical, not hygiene, flaw.
Maintenance: Generally excellent, but being a new property, you might spot minor 'settling' cracks or paint touch-ups.
Linens & towels: Plush, high-thread-count linens that feel brand new.
Odors & scents: Smells like copal and sea breeze; no musty complaints found.

Časté otázky a skryté tipy

Vše, co opravdu chcete vědět, než si zarezervujete.

Is the beach private?

Yes, Xela has its own roped-off beach area with loungers, and because there are only 12 rooms, it's never crowded.

Is there a gym?

Yes, a small garden-facing gym with premium equipment, but don't expect a full Equinox.

Can I bring my kids?

Only if they are 12 or older. The hotel maintains a quiet, adult-centric atmosphere.

Is the pool heated?

It's an outdoor infinity pool; heating is not explicitly guaranteed, so it can be refreshing (read: chilly) in winter mornings.

How is the WiFi?

Surprisingly good for Tulum, suitable for remote work, though storms can cause temporary outages.

Is it near the party zone?

It's at Km 8.7, which is a sweet spot—close to restaurants like NÜ and Hartwood, but just far enough from the loudest clubs to sleep.

Insider tipy

✨
Use the free bikes to get to the ruins early (8 AM) to beat the tour buses.
✨
The rooftop is the highest point on the beach road—go there for sunset even if you don't drink.
✨
Ask for Manuel; he is the guest-favorite concierge who can pull strings for hard-to-get dinner reservations.

5 věcí, které byste měli vědět, než se vydáte

💡The water pressure is a known weak point; don't expect a power wash.
💡You are essentially staying in a converted private villa, so soundproofing between rooms isn't hotel-standard.
💡The 'Garden View' rooms are basically in the hallway to the pool.
💡Tipping culture in Tulum is aggressive; check your bill for 'suggested' 20% tips before adding more.
💡The seaweed (sargassum) is cleaned daily, but nature is unpredictable—check the webcam before you fly.
