Situated in Tulum, 3.1 km from Tulum Archeological Site, Mimosa Tulum features accommodation with an outdoor swimming pool, free private parking, a garden and a terrace. With a bar, the 4-star hostel has air-conditioned rooms with free WiFi. The property is 1.1 km from Tulum Bus station, and within 1.1 km of the city centre. I stayed in the tepee tent - pretty spacious and air conditioning was great. Bed was comfortable. The pool area is nice too. I spent a week and was working from the premises - internet worked great. Well located with many great restaurant options around.

Hostel Oryx Tulum features an outdoor swimming pool, garden, a shared lounge and bar in Tulum. The property is around 4.6 km from Tulum Archeological Site, 500 metres from Tulum Bus station and 3.8 km from Bus station Tulum Ruins. The accommodation offers a 24-hour front desk, a shuttle service, a shared kitchen and free WiFi throughout the property. Checked in and out by Jorgelian, who was very helpful. Ioved the jungle vibe, but yet the hostel is located on the main street. Eateries and bars were all within easy walking distance. Beach strip isn't far by bike, but make sure you ask staff where the free public beaches are located. If you go to the beaches inside the park boundary there is an expensive admission fee.

The rooms have air conditioning, and some units at the hostel have a balcony. Oh my gosh… where do I begin?! The staff are INCREDIBLE! The location is beyond perfect, and the dorms are absolutely adorable. I never had to worry about my belongings (each bunk has a lockbox), I met tons of incredible people and the local restaurants, and shops are to die for. It’s also a 12 second walk away from a gorgeous, massive beach!
