    On the beach right by my room
    Rachelle Rare P.

    My trip to Tulum was not planned thoroughly, I found Diamante K on my AMEX rewards as a place I could use my points on. All I knew was it was right by the water. When I arrived I was pleasantly surprised this place is BEAUTIFUL and fully incorporates the nature it is surrounded by into its overall decor. I loved the walkways, and little mayan figurines all around. This hotel is located inside a forest and the entrance is closed at night must have your hotel key to get in. When I arrived the front desk guy was so friendly and nice. He even gave me a map so that I could go tour the cenotes by myself instead of a pricey tour guide. One this I was not aware of is that my little hut did NOT come with a bathroom lol. That kinda threw me but the public shower was a step away from my room. I stayed for 3 days and never had an issue with using the public bathroom. I loved the room tho, the canopy adds a sexy touch. And the beach is literally a 3 minute walk away, They have cabanas and hammocks right by the ocean for visitors to sit and watch the night sky. That was jy favorite part I slept on a cabbana one night just chilling and listening to the waves, This hotel is centrally located, it's 5 minutes from the Mayan Ruins (although they were closed :( ) and about a 10 minute ride into downtown tulum. It is also like 10 minutes from Cenotes Calavera. It's the perfect location, I loved how easy it was to navigate. They only downside was the food was nasty, I ordered a burger well done and it came out pink. And the no air conditioner is a hassle when you're trying to do your makeup in the daytime. But besides that I loved this place would come again and get a room with a bathroom.

    Dream Hotel Diamante K direct on the beach, courteous and attentive staff The Diamante K Hotel is a dream! You are right on the beach, the rooms are very good and the staff is very courteous, friendly and attentive. The Maya Tulum Archaeological Zone is close by and other awesome beaches can be found along this coast. Overnight rates can be high, depending on the room. There are only other hotels and resorts in the vicinity. But bicycles are available to rent, if you want to go into town or to the Mayan site.

    One of the many nights I constantly messaged the front desk and not hearing back.

    Hated hated hated this place!! Location was away from dinning. It's next to a national park, so getting back to the hotel at night was scary for a group of girls. You have to check in with some armed guards and tell them your staying at the hotel and show them a key. I had friends staying at another hotel and they were not allowed to get through because they were not guest at our hotel. So annoying! Aside from that, we had bugs in our room every single day!! I know it's a jungle but my friend stayed at Hotelito Azul and their room had ZERO bugs!!!! Anyway, they used very harsh chemicals to get rid of them. We waited outside our room at night to air out the room. It was harsh. I wouldn't stay here again!! Don't waste your money.

    Just got home from a 7 day stay at the hotel. We absolutely loved it we had our own private balcony and the room was great! The staff was all so nice and they were constantly cleaning the beach The location is more north which means you have to travel to the main area but also means less people and traffic getting in and out to areas like downtown. The food at the restaurant was all very good and the cocktails were well crafted. Keep in mind, this place is not some time share resort so don't expect it to be. It's almost halfway unplugged No AC but fans were silent and perfectly fine.. we slept great Got a little sandy in the room on windy days but the cleaning crew would have that fixed in no time There is occasion bugs but you're in the jungle so what do you expect Oh and they have parking right out front that we never had an issue parking our car in.

    Beautiful staff, quiet beach. Simple housing. The food is very desirable, delicious juice & smoothies, and lots of healthy options. The coffee is tasty in the mornings. service at 8am -9pm This is not a party resort, but rather a beautiful and quiet place to enjoy the magic of tulum. The beach seating and access to morning sunrise is incredible. I will be back and cherished every moment of it!

    The restaurant

    On our last night in Tulum we decided to have dinner here and it was a main highlight of our trip. Being on the hotel strip, there are many places to eat. However, the many places to eat are either over priced or hole in the walls but not authentic cuisine. If you want authentic, you have to go into the town of Tulum. At Diamanté K, they did not disappoint! Fair prices, a huge menu selection and extremely delicious food. Our server Marco was excellent. We had the most gorgeous and delicious ceviche, fried plantains and lobster... and don't forget the drinks! With your feet in the sand and that amazing view, it was the best dining experience on the strip we had. We went to Ziggys, LaZebra and ARCA but this was our favorite. Don't miss out on this place!

    We got into Tulum in the middle of January. It was supposed to be the dry season, but the forecast was rain straight through the week. We had booked one of the larger spaces at Diamante K with a king bed. It was pouring when we arrived and one guest at the check-in desk was visibly upset about something. After he was helped, we were shown to our room. The room was very small - only comfortable for one person. The bed was maybe a double? It was clearly not what we paid for. More significantly, the floor was full of water. There was a sizable puddle in the corner and water was flowing from the palapa ceiling, down the walls (near electrical cords, etc, no less). The bed was soaked with water. There were dirty towels on the floor and no toilet paper. I suspect that the angry guest before us had abandoned the unit we were given. We abandoned Diamante K for the night (we thankfully had decided to rent a car when we saw the forecast) and booked a last-minute room in town, which was deliciously dry. Now, Diamante K has a supposedly no-refund policy. They have a laundry list of things that you "agree" to when you stay there. In the morning we got in touch with the fella in charge and demanded a refund. Diamante K was not apologetic about the water issues and kinda shrugged our issues off. It is "eco tourism" after all, so they expect you to be OK being one with the elements, I suppose. They did, however, concede to a full refund. After receiving the refund he explained that the palapa roofs only last about four years and that many were due to be replaced. I suppose they were not expecting rain in the dry season and perhaps had put it off. In any event, it is apparent that many of the units have significant, chronic water issues. Eco-tourism is often used as a cover to provide cheap accommodations at inflated prices. We ultimately ended up staying at Dune for the rest of our trip. They have concrete roofs.

    Me and my husband came here for our honeymoon, The staff here was seriously AMAZING! They were so sweet, the food at their restaurant was really good! The bad thing was my room, it was very small very hot and I got bite ALOT I killed a crab, tarantula, grasshoppers, spiders like no other. My bed sheets were not clean at all the cover was really dirty and always had spiders on them. To top it off we got food poisoning from a buffet we ate from and we had to cut our honeymoon short because being sick and In that room was not comfortable at all. The beach water stinked really bad there was alot of kelp the water wasnt even clear it was brown. The only great thing here to me was again the staff and the restaurant food.

Tables, nests, netting with pillows to lie back on, a live DJ setting the mood. We were some of the first people there, and within an hour it was packed for the sunset, which was just unreal. We stayed well past dark. The architecture alone is worth the trip.. there is this wild underground-but-above-ground tunnel situation you really just have to see for yourself. I didn't make it to the restaurant (Kin Toh) this time, but it is at the top of my list for the next trip. Tip: get there early for the best seats.

When I got to the entrance, the woman working there (Joanna) was unbelievably rude. I explained that we already had reservations and just needed five minutes to see where to set up the surprise. She flat-out refused and said I'd have to pay 8,000 pesos just to look. I asked for a manager, but she said the manager agreed I couldn't go up. She said the place is like the pictures online and I could decide from that. After 30 minutes of back-and-forth, she finally let me in -- and I was in and out in under 3 minutes. Thankfully, Juno upstairs was wonderful and actually helpful (the only positive part of this whole story). Fast-forward to the night of the proposal: Joanna, who knew it was supposed to be a surprise, asked in front of everyone, "Is this for the engagement party?" -- completely ruining it. Her apology didn't even sound genuine. The service after that was awful. We asked for the ahumador contra mosquitos they use at the tables, and no one brought it until we asked again and they brought it as we were closing out. The wait staff basically disappeared once they realized we weren't ordering food. We still met the minimum spend and even bought bottles, but it was the worst "special occasion" experience I've ever had. The place is gorgeous in photos -- but don't let that fool you. Between rude staff, bad energy, and zero hospitality, it's just not worth it.

Enjoy the breakfast (and entire menu!) here as the food is best of all of tulum.

Don't forget to tip! There was a security guard on the premises all night as well. Great food and shopping right outside the hotel on the street! I've read reviews on other websites with people expecting more services or generally disliking this hotel, but I don't see how.. This is a nice, quiet, quaint hotel NOT a resort so don't expect to be waited on or all the amenities. Electricity is limited so heads up: no blow dryers or curling irons and use lights minimally to be eco-conscious. But you CAN charge your phone (outlets right next to bed) Also, no flushing TP so it must put in a little trash can under the sink, but we had no problems with this. There is the Sargassum seaweed problem on the beach but this is not fault of the hotel and the few hotels on the same beach shared with Calaluna work everyday to clear the seaweed for the guests but it builds up quickly. The seaweed didn't bother us, the beach was still very relaxing and there's so much other stuff to do in the area (ruins & cenotes) Would stay here again!

The rooms were a bit dimly lit, but that wasn't a problem at all as you can just open the windows and take in the bright Caribbean sun. The pool and hammocks were great to use and the property also has its own beach which was lovely! The restaurant is also good and right on the beach! You must try the fresh guacamole and margaritas! The location is ideal as it's right across from a convenience store, ATM, and close to the bar and restaurant Mateos, but I'd also recommend going a little more south for other restaurant options. It's also just a short bike ride or taxi over to the ruins! Would love to stay here again if I come back to Tulum!

The owner of the place was really helpful in explaining the taxi/bus system and in calling me cabs (we'd been ripped off at the airport and were nervous) and I liked having someone I could trust. I locked my stuff in the safe every night and in the day when we went out (two MacBooks, an iPad, passports) and nothing was stolen. The safe didn't feel very secure -- the lock was kind of iffy, but the room did, and as we had a beach view, and a private building, it would have been hard for a stranger to rob us. The sea was gorgeous and blue, but had some seaweed in it, as we'd expected. However: there's a way around this. Walk up or down the beach (you can get to this by climbing over the rocks at the side, or a looooong walk via road) and stretches of the beaches there (not all, but some) were seaweed free; the tide does what it wants, right? I swam and paddled and had a lovely time. BRING SUNCREAM. It gets hot. Would love to go back.

We ended up switching rooms because the toilet wasn't working properly, and thankfully the second room was much better. One thing worth mentioning that the hotel has zero control over is the amount of sargassum seaweed on the beach.

I did some searching on a travel app and up popped La Conchita at a very reasonable price. And while the reviews were great, I still wasn't sure what to expect since this place was 1/3 the price of other nearby hotels. Well, all I can say is: wow. This adorable, hyperlocal little mini resort is everything we were looking for. It features a cluster of grass-roofed cabanas surrounding a lush, tropical courtyard filled with white Caribbean sand. Every room has an outdoor seating area (some larger than others) so you can enjoy the ocean - which is only steps away as La Conchita is located right on the beach. It was so amazing to be lulled asleep every night by the loud, crashing waves. The property is no frills - there's no on-site spa, bar, or restaurant. But there's a beach club literally right next door which you can order from while enjoying La Conchita's private (and complimentary to guests) palapas and beach mattresses. There are also massages available in the beach area for a reasonable price - we saw many people partaking of them while we were there. Our room itself was big, bright, and comfortable. The bed was luxurious, the bathroom small-but-clean; and the room contained all the basic amenities we could need for our short visit: a small fridge to keep the beers cold, and a Nespresso machine for morning coffee. Our unit (#5) faced the beach directly, and we spent lots of time on our patio, watching the waves crash and the palm trees blow in the breeze. There are also several restaurants and bars lining the street, all within walking distance. Our favorite was Potheads, and elevated coffee shop with delicious food (and espresso, of course). We also dined at the tapas bar next door and it was delicious. They also offer a 10% discount to La Conchita guests for breakfast and dinner. When we left La Conchita we both agreed we can't wait to go back here on our next trip to the area!
