Ma’Xanab Tulum

Last updated: 13 November, 2022

The Ma’Xanab takes the hammock-slung, thatched hut, toes-in-the-sand formula that made Tulum a backpacker beach legend in the 1990s and turned it chic beach-boutique.

Rooms in polished concrete and lush hardwoods sit in two-story cabanas. The best are on the upper floor – brighter and airier, they sit under towering palm-weave roofs and are adorned with carefully-placed wall mirrors and Mexican ceramic objets d’art. Wall-high windows with drapey linen curtains open onto plunge-pool balconies with jungle or palm-tree-and-ocean views.

The hotel has a modest pool and a good restaurant serving Mexican comfort cooking. There are many more options within a 15-minute walk. Adults only.

Surrounding area

The hotel sits on a quiet stretch of sand on the edge of Tulum beach’s low-key nightlife and hotel zone. Alternative restaurants, shops and bars are a ten-minute walk south. Tulum village with even more choices is a 15-minute cab ride.
