Mereva Tulum

"I was in Tulum alone for a few days as I needed to catch a later flight than my friends. This hotel was exactly what I was looking for. Clean and comfortable room that was pleasantly decorated and a great view of the sea. They even provide paddle boards and canoes. I felt very safe and the WiFi was great for me to get work done. The staff were so so wonderful. The only reason four and not five stars is because the food was just ok - definitely not bad. I did come during low season though. "

"From ceiling to floor it was excellent. The staff was accommodating and it was paradise! "

"Hotel Mereva was beyond amazing. Our room was steps from the sea and beach loungers. We had access to two amazing pools and a cenote across the street. Food and drinks were a 10 out of 10. The service and staff were extremely friendly and accommodating. King size comfy bed with cold AC. We can't wait to go back."

"This absolutely the best, amazing place. Food is great, staff are extremely kind and ocean is heavenly. The only reason I left 3 stars for this is that you have to drive a very long unpaved road. We saw one car bumped their bottom of the car really badly. It seems its not a very big deal to local people but it was a learning curve for us. But other than that, nothing could be more perfect. "

"The property is absolutely beautiful right on the beach where you can see beautiful blue waters. I must say the rooms are very comfortable, the bed and pillows were perfect. The food wasn’t the best and a bit overpriced for the portions, prices are higher than miami in the restaurant even the water is almost $10 dollars which is outrageous considering my husband and I travel a lot to other countries in the Caribbean. The customer service was great and the staff was super friendly and accommodating. The road to get to the hotel is full of holes which it can take up to 20 minutes from the highway to the hotel. Overall it was a nice and beautiful peaceful views."

"Great stay! "

"This hotel is a gem amongst the many types of accommodations along the coast. It’s close enough to the main drag of Tulum proper that the drive is doable multiple times a day but is far enough away that you don’t hear or deal with any of the commotion of Tulum. The highlights for us were: - the pier and private beachfront- this part of the bay/ cove had the most fish activity and the pelicans would land on the pier multiple times a days, along with many other types of sea birds - the snorkel gear- you can borrow snorkel gear to take with you to the cenotes so you won’t have to rent gear - there were 2 kayaks which we used to to take out as much as possible to sea the coral reefs - the complimentary breakfast was an asset, the hotel is far enough away that you won’t want to get up and drive into town each morning- we lived on the fruit bowls, fresh juices and huevos rancheros. The property/ rooms and pools are very well maintained and the staff were really lovely and very helpful. We’ve been down to the Tulum area before and would highly recommend Mereva for a quiet and relaxing hotel stay. We don’t have kids but think this place is great for kids. The amount of wildlife (fish/ birds) to interact with there would keep any kid very busy. "

"I really enjoyed the entire property, beach view, common space is very beautiful. Exactly like the pictures. It was very quiet and the staff was super friendly. I will say that you need a taxi or car to get to most places and the taxis are expensive. But I felt better being driven then driving around in a car in a country I didn’t know and where parking was difficult to find. Plan your activities accordingly. Food was actually pretty good. I will be sure to visit again. "

"My family just returned from a week-long vacation at the Mereva and it was absolutely fabulous. The staff were super friendly, attentive and incredibly helpful. The included breakfast was heavenly and generous — from the lattes to the fruit bowls to the myriad ways to order your eggs. The property itself offers a beautiful, secluded boutique resort experience — exactly we wanted. The beds were comfortable, the view from our room was spectacular. I can’t recommend this place enough. The restaurant at the Mereva’s sister property Alea might just be my new favorite place to eat in the world. "

"Wonderful staff. We really enjoyed the stay and hope to visit again!"
