Roomer

Unico 20 87 Hotel Riviera Maya

Tulum, Mexico
$600-900/ nuit

Réservez si You want a boutique, adults-only all-inclusive where the food is actually edible and you prefer a killer pool scene over a swimmable beach.

Pourquoi les gens l'adorent

  • No wristbands—it feels like a hotel, not a cattle ranch
  • The 'unlimited' inclusions (spa, tours) are a legit perk, even with the 25% service fee
  • Local Host service that handles your reservations via WhatsApp

En bref : A stunning, design-forward resort that nails the food and vibes but completely fails on the beach front.

Évalué par @Reggieloves: I stayed in this Ocean Front Suite at Unico 20 87 and the terrace was unreal. Having a private tub right next to the ocean while listening to the waves was the highlight of my trip. It's the perfect spot for a romantic escape.

Ce que les clients qui ont séjourné ici ont dit

The hype

Travelers rave about the 'relaxed luxury' aesthetic and the food quality, which punches way above typical all-inclusive weight.

Reality check

The 'quiet pool' (La Sombra) still has a swim-up bar, so don't expect library-level silence if a group is day-drinking.

  • You are a foodie who usually hates all-inclusive buffets
  • You prefer a curated, boutique vibe over a sprawling mega-resort
  • You love spa days and don't mind paying the 25% fee for 'included' treatments

Génie des chambres

Meilleurs choix

  • Alto Panoramic (5th floor) for the best unobstructed ocean vistas

Chambres à éviter

“I would love to request a room on the 4th or 5th floor in the building closest to the La Sombra (quiet) pool for maximum privacy and ocean views.”

FAQ et astuces cachées

Tout ce que vous voulez vraiment savoir avant de réserver.

Is the beach really that bad?

Yes. It's rocky, narrow, and often full of seaweed. Think of it as a nice backdrop for the pool, not a place to swim.

What is the 25% service fee?

You get 'unlimited' spa, golf, and tours, but you must pay a 25% fee on the retail price of each service. A $300 massage will cost you $75.

Do I need to tip?

It's an all-inclusive, so tips are technically included, but staff work hard and cash tips ($1-5 for drinks, more for spa/housekeeping) go a long way.

Is the water in the pools heated?

Yes, the pools are heated, which is a lifesaver during cooler winter months or breezy evenings.

Can I drink the tap water?

No. Stick to the bottled water provided daily in your room and used at all restaurants.

Is there a dress code for dinner?

Yes. 'Casual Elegance' is the norm. No flip-flops or swimsuits. Men usually need long pants and collared shirts for Cueva Siete and Mi Carisa.

Conseils d'initiés

  • ✨

    Ask your Local Host for the 'pillow menu' and 'aromatherapy menu' upon arrival to customize your room scent.

  • ✨

    The hydrotherapy circuit at the spa is often included with treatments—arrive 45 minutes early to use it.

  • ✨

    Order the churros from room service—they are a cult favorite among past guests.

5 choses à savoir avant de partir

  • 💡The 'quiet pool' (La Sombra) has a swim-up bar, so it's only as quiet as the drunkest group there.

  • 💡You can get custom-painted hats by local artisans near the pool (sometimes for a fee, sometimes included as an activity).

  • 💡The 'ocean view' from the 2nd floor is mostly a 'palm tree view'—go higher.

  • 💡Room service breakfast is excellent and a great way to avoid the morning buffet rush.

  • 💡The gym is surprisingly legit, open 24/7 with LifeFitness equipment and daily classes like floating yoga.
