Pourquoi les gens l'adorent
- Every room is a private villa with its own plunge pool
- Incredible value compared to the $500+ beach hotels
- Peaceful jungle vibes near Cenote Crystal and Vesica
En bref : A sexy, secluded jungle hideaway that feels expensive until you realize you're a 15-minute drive from the actual beach.
Évalué par @kamilahrhasaan : I stayed here for a romantic getaway and it was exactly the reset we needed. The private pool gave us total privacy, and the room design is just stunning. Waking up to jungle views and soaking in that copper tub made me never want to leave.
Ce que les clients qui ont séjourné ici ont dit
Reality check
The 'Tantric' name is mostly branding—don't expect a sex club, but do expect a very couples-centric vibe where kids are allowed but rare.
- You are a couple looking for privacy and romance on a budget
- You have a rental car and don't mind driving to dinner
- You prefer cenotes and jungle quiet over beach club bass
Propreté et entretien
8.5
- Housekeeping: Daily service is reliable. Staff is praised for creating towel art and keeping things tidy.
- Bathroom hygiene: Generally clean, but the open-air jungle environment means you might find the occasional ant or gecko. Grout is usually well-maintained.
- Maintenance: Newer property, but the harsh jungle climate causes rapid wear. Expect minor issues like a loose handle or finicky faucet.
- Linens & towels: Fresh and decent quality, though humidity can sometimes make them feel less than crisp.
- Odors & scents: Mostly fresh jungle air, occasionally a whiff of septic (common in all of Tulum) if the wind turns.

FAQ et astuces cachées
Tout ce que vous voulez vraiment savoir avant de réserver.
Is it actually a sex hotel?
No. Despite the name 'Tantric', it's a standard boutique hotel. The vibe is romantic and sensual (open showers, private pools), but it's not an adults-only sex club. Children are technically allowed.
How far is the beach?
Far. It is about 8-10km (5-6 miles) to the Hotel Zone beach strip. That's a 15-20 minute drive depending on traffic.
Is there parking?
Yes, free private parking is available on-site, which is rare and valuable in Tulum.
Can I walk to dinner?
Not really. There are a few spots like Vesica or Atta nearby, but the road is dark and lacks sidewalks. You really need a car or scooter.
Is the pool heated?
The private plunge pools are generally unheated. They can feel chilly in the morning or evening, but refreshing during the hot midday.
Is the area safe?
Yes, the hotel is gated and the area is generally safe, but it is dark and secluded at night. Don't walk on the highway after dark.
Conseils d'initiés
- ✨
Walk to Cenote Crystal and Cenote Escondido across the street—guests often get a discount or just enjoy the proximity.
- ✨
The hotel has a partnership with a nearby beach club sometimes; ask at reception for current passes.
- ✨
Order the floating breakfast for the photo op; it's one of the few 'luxury' amenities they do really well.
5 choses à savoir avant de partir
💡The 'Tantric' name is likely just a marketing SEO keyword; there are no tantra workshops on the daily schedule.
💡The shower water pressure can be weak and the temperature finicky.
💡You are located on the highway exit towards Chetumal, meaning you skip some town traffic but are far from the action.
💡The 'kitchen' in the room is usually just a mini-fridge and coffee maker, not for cooking meals.
💡Mosquito nets are provided but often have gaps; check yours immediately upon arrival.
