Tulum & Riviera Maya sights

Tulum has an excellent location in the Riviera Maya. It also has a magical tropical athmosphere. To help you with your itinerary, we show three great places to go:

 

1. The beaches of Tulum
The beaches of Tulum have been cataloged several times as the most beautiful in the world, its white sand and turquoise sea.

2.  Sian Kan The Yucatán contains an abundance of eco-parks and natural reserves, but few compare to the breadth and natural wonder of Sian Ka'an. Just south of Tulum, the reserve contains more than 1.2 million acres of estuaries, reefs, cenotes and wetlands. Within the park, you can take tours of the local wildlife, take part in a diving or snorkeling tour or simply just walk around the beautiful and expansive park.

3. Cenotes
The cenotes are unique natural formations of the Yucatan Peninsula, it is estimated that there are over 2400 and close to Tulum you can visit many of them.

4. Akumal
Historically, the first tourist destination of the Riviera Maya, now is an excellent place for rest and relationship where you can go fishing, snorkeling and diving, or just take a short break in its quiet and beautiful beaches.

 Lodge with luxury and confort in Tulum.

Actions to continue enjoying the oceans

1. Safe and sustainable fish shoppingGlobal fish stocks are rapidly depleting due to demand, loss of habitat and unsustainable fishing practices. When shopping or dining out, help reduce the demand for these overexploited species by choosing healthy and sustainable products.

 
2. Use less plastic productsPlastics that end up as trash in the sea contribute to the destruction of habitats. To limit its impact, we can reuse water bottles, store food in non-disposable containers, use cloth bags to carry our purchases. The bottom line is to recycle as much as possible.

3. Do not buy products that take advantage of Marine LifeSome products contribute to the damage of fragile coral reefs and marine populations. Avoid buying items such as coral jewelry, accessories made from shells and shark products.

4. Support organizations working to protect the SeaMany institutes and organizations are struggling to protect marine habitats and marine life. Find a national organization and consider the possibility of financial or volunteer support for practical or promotional work.

5. Traveling in the sea responsiblyIf you practice sports such as kayaking or other activities that take place in the water, do not throw anything overboard and be aware of the marine life that lives in the waters that surround you.6. Help take care of the beachesIf we go to the beach we collect the trash we generate and the one we find. Do not throw cigarette butts in the sand, since a single one contaminates 10 liters of water besides killing species that eat them by mistake.

Why lodge in a Boutique Hotel in Playa del Carmen and Tulum.

1.  

1. Local feel. Regardless of the city or continent, the boutique hotel inevitably gives its guests a genuine feel for the location. For example, The Rose Hotel’s location on historic Main Street in downtown Pleasanton gives visitors a quiet, relaxing environment reflective of the city itself. Walk out the hotel’s front door and there is quaint shopping and dining stretching for blocks.
2. Rare experience. While some people stay exclusively at boutique hotels, others treat themselves occasionally to the rare experience characterized by their more intimate and luxurious environments, as well as more personalized accommodations and services.
3. More luxurious accommodations. There is a cozier feel to smaller-scale hotels because they aren’t choked with throngs of people and monotone rooms. By contrast, boutiques often focus on a specific experience, style or image, rather than simply functionality.
4. Newer properties. Boutiques tend to have been more recently constructed, if for no other reason than boutiques are a relatively new hotel category. Conversely, if history and architectural character are your fancy, there are plenty of boutiques that accommodate those predilections.
5. Upscale designs. Whether newly constructed or historic, boutique hotels almost invariably bring a heightened sense of design and décor, which is one of the great differentiators between boutique and conventional hotels.
6. Higher level of pampering. Boutiques have brought back the old-school approach to customer service. Guests are pampered, from plush lobbies, furniture and bedding to higher quality food, beverage and concierge service.
7. Intimate atmosphere. By virtue of their smaller size, boutiques naturally have a warmer ambiance, yet they are large enough to avoid the claustrophobic sensation one sometimes gets from cramped bed and breakfasts. 

If you’ve never had the pleasure of staying at a boutique hotel we invite you to experience the difference in Playa del Carmen or Tulum:
