    Split Coconut - Very cool Beachside shanty BBQ & full bar bar ;)

    LOVE LOVE LOVE Brad's split coconut!!!…read more "I don't know the reason I stayed here all season Nothin to show but this brand new tattoo But it's a real beauty A mexican cutie How it got here I haven't a clue" I can't really tell you everything that goes on at the split coconut bc I can't remember half & chose not to tell the other. Lol This is THE best beachside shanty restaurant/bar in Port. I watched the Super Bowl this year right from this place with the sand between my toes. That was a good day. Good times. Lol One of the best things about the Coconut is that it's owned by this very cool laid back Canadian guy. I have seen him bartend, take orders, bust tables, he really cares about his business & everyone loves him. A real Jimmy Buffet type & type of place. Not only do all the Canadians flock here for Wednesday night horseshoes, Thursday/Friday night live music & Saturday night open mic night, the locals come in droves too. Mainly bc of the incredible BBQ!!! There is a giant grill parked right next to the bar & most days the bar opens by 2pm & they crank that BBQ up & start making ribs, burgers & the fresh catch of the day they just picked up off the fishing boats right from the Pacific Ocean 200 yards in front of the place. Coconuts sits right on the beach just left of Playa Principle where all the fisherman bring in their fresh catch every morning at 6:00am. The fish specials change daily but there is always ribs, burgers & BBQ on the menu. The Burgers are incredible & he even makes his own BBQ sauce & it's fantastic! I don't even like BBQ sauce & I like his. Very tangy, kinda tropical YUM! :)' What I really love is the grilled fish of the day! Omg, super fresh fish right from the pacific ocean 200 yards away, to the BBQ, to your mouth! It's 2.die.4! I especially love the keg tooth fish, the sail fish & the mahi mahi. The rice & fresh veggies that comes with it is the best I have had in Port. Perfect every time & seasoned to perfection. It's not fancy, its more like homemade. Served on plastic tables & chairs in the sand right on the beach. Come in your swimsuit, no shit no shoes no problem. Wednesday's are horseshoe night. Not my thing but the Canadian men especially love this night. When there is live music/a band playing on the weekends it's always epic good vibes. It's kinda divey but they have the best live music on the beach & incredible fresh food. The drinks are strong & the service is great. Every day around sunset, the BBQ is smoking, the sun is setting over playa Principle's lighthouse & the sailboats that have anchored there for the night, right off the beach. They gently float in the surf where the surfers are getting in their last rides of the day. Just epic stunning views. If your looking to be wasting away again in Margarita-vile, searching for your lost shaker of salt, some people will claim that there's a woman to blame here, now I think, hell, it could be MY fault. LOL Cheers! Highly Highly Recommend :))

    Located along Playa Zipolite. It's ok! We dropped by for a drink before dinner. For a weekday…read moreevening, it was largely empty. We opted for beachfront seating. At high tide, the water occasionally comes up to your feet :3 Seating isn't the cleanest, there were cigarettes on the floor and the table had drink residue... Service was a also bit slow, first took a while to take our orders and even longer to deliver the orders. We were maybe one of three parties there... The drinks themselves were fine. Not terrible, but I think we've had better elsewhere.

    This beach side restaurant is famous for their seafood, although they serve most everything. What…read morecaught my attention most on the menu, was their pizza. I found out that they actually don't start serving pizza until the late afternoon. I've been craving a pizza for months, and the only good pizza that I've experienced so far was in the capital city. For lunch I selected the two tacos de res. The tacos were made to order and they were excellent. The best thing about this restaurant is the ocean view. The complete side facing the ocean is open to the beach. You get the breeze, ocean surf and sea salt smell, and adequate sun. The restaurant is protected from the sun and elements. I could literally sit here all day, however I didn't notice any receptacles to plug in and charge. I also don't know if they have WiFi here. There is an adjacent hotel that is part of the establishment which I'm sure is nice for the guests that stay here.

Llegamos a las 5.00pm y al ver que el restaurante abria a las 6.00 pm decidimos dar la vuelta viendo a los artezanos para no molestar en lo que daban las 6.00pm. Y asi fue despues de esperar la hora nos presentamos nuevamente a La Pizzeria, llegamos y al ver que seguian preparando las cosas para abrir nosotros muy amablemente preguntamos que si podiamos pedir unas cervezas y sentarnos en lo que acababan de preparar para abrir. 2 de las cocineras nos dijeron que como se habian quedado dormidas el restaurante no estaba listo. Luego un mesero alto nos dijo muy grosero, que no podiamos pasar por que si mas gente veia que ya habia gente en el restaurante iban a querer entrar tambien, nosotros un poco confundidos hasta nos reimos por que no tiene sentido querer tener un restaurante vacio despues de la hra de apertura? Para este entonces mi Mama habia pasado a hacer pipi en el baño por que teniamos todas las intenciones de quedarnos (eramos una mesa grande de 10 personas) cuando mi Mama salio del baño el mesero muy grocero le dijo que le echara agua al escusado y al ser tratados de esa manera decidimos mejor ir a buscar otro lugar donde comer, ya ibamos de salida cuando el mesero nos grito desde el otro lado del restaurante "les voy a guardar su caca". En primer lugar no usamos el baño para defecar y en segundo lugar esa no es una manera de hablarle a una señora. Salimos un enojados y decepcionados al llegar al estacionamiento un senñor nos escucho quejandonos y le explicamos lo que succedio el nos recomendo una Pizzeria ahi mismo en mazunte se llama "Buena Onda" se las recomiendo muchisimo los empleados super atentos , el servicio excelente y la comida deliciosa!!!! Espero que el dueño del restaurante La Pizzeria vea este Review y ponga en linea a sus empleados ya que con esta actitud solo van a hacer que la gente no regrese. Los Empleados eran 2 señoras en la cocina y 1 mesero alto. Todo esto sucedio el Viernes 28 de Febrero a las 6.00pm

The beach dogs were a highlight: friendly, chill, and so well-behaved that a few even napped at our feet during meals. Service at the restaurant was quick, and I ate there often -- the food was great and the Wi-Fi there worked well. I also felt really safe; there's someone stationed outside through the night. The rooms were comfortable, and the cleaning staff deserves special mention -- the woman who cleaned our room went above and beyond (she even organized my makeup one morning!). Everything was spotless, and the beds were super cozy. The main downside was the Wi-Fi in the rooms -- it barely worked, so I had to head down to the restaurant for a connection. We stayed in a suite, which looked a bit more spacious in the photos, so that was a small disappointment. There were also a few bugs and small critters (mosquitoes, crickets, lizards), but considering the off-grid, jungle-meets-beach vibe, it's understandable. Overall, it was a great stay -- beautiful setting, perfect location, and easy access to food, the beach, and town. Would definitely recommend for anyone who wants a laid-back, scenic Tulum experience.

We sat on the couches on the beach. Attention to detail, Delicious food, great service, beautiful atmosphere. Highly recommend for a romantic quick bite or dinner with friends. It is a stray from the bohemian character and culture of zipolite - while we enjoyed everything - I would suggest this place as an option but not a solution to all the other great small culturally significant locally owned and family driven restaurants in town. They are open later than 6pm- so that should be updated on Yelp.
