Villa Pescadores Tulum

We had a lovely stay at this beautiful eco-friendly beachfront property, which is located within the national park of the Tulum ruins. It’s very serene and relaxing. Jaime and her staff are wonderful, friendly, attentive, and we’re very helpful in accommodating our needs, including renting an ATV. Jaimie is absolute gem and one of the reasons we rate this memorable stay high. the only downside of the hotel being a within the national park, there is only one bidirectional road to and from the property to the main beach area and town where all the restaurants and activities are and there is a lot of traffic due to cars trying to go to the ruins and beaches. Additionally, you have to pay a daily park entrance fee per person of $60 MXN regardless of entering by car, ATV, bicycle. The hotel reimburses you the first day of the entrance fee. Overall, we would return again.

This property has the perfect mix of rustic, quiet and tropical Carribean setting. The staff is extremely accommodating and friendly. My sister and I brought my mother here for her 80th birthday. We were able to adventure some with snorkeling right at the resort and good recommendations for a monkey sanctuary tour. We were also able to enjoy quiet, slow times with sipping coffee on our front porch, delivered every moring by the staff. Overall, the only thing that I can suggest that the resort imrpves, is to to have an enclosed area for dining, ifncase the weather is inclimate. We had a day or two of blowing wind, and it was unpleasant to eat while the sand blew into our food and faces!

We loved everything about this charming place. The beach is fabulous and the cabin was spacious, clean and simple. We also liked the food and the great service of Bety and Rosita.

The staff here was extremely friendly and on point. They did a great as a team, being available while not hovering. We will definitely be back. Jamie at the front desk truly does an incredible job be informative and managing everything at the same time. Ivan, Jose Louis, Fernando, and Arcelli were awesome on the food service side. And Rosalia was nearly invisible but kept the room spotless.

We liked teh concept, excellent service, making reservations to tours or taxis on our behalf. Exceelent access to evry pristine beach, and very good restuarant.

This property was truly amazing. The staff is very friendly, helpful, and knowledgeable. They even upgraded our room for free because it was my birthday! The food at the onsite restaurant is a delicious as well. You would not be disappointed stayimg here.

So disappointing that we left early with no refund. The location is beautiful (it’s a beach on the Caribbean Sea, of course it is) however that was honestly it. Their approach of being eco-friendly is to be commended however it is compounding to your experience (a good experience and being eco-friendly are not mutually exclusive). The hut on the beach looks cool however it is disfunctional. You cannot have your AC on from 9am to 6pm which is crazy in this heat (the office is always chilled however…) and when it is on, it’s very weak. There are also gaps in the hut roof plus the two sliding doors have a permanent gap down the middle when closed so you cannot maintain a consistent colder temperature in the hut. This means you have to pump AC at its coldest consistently which is counter-productive to the “eco-friendly” approach. The power went out one night and it was roasting in the hut with 0 air flow as the only windows are two tiny bathroom windows unless you want to leave your doors open… not much you can do as an accommodation but these are things you have to consider as a visitor here as they do not have access to the regions main electric supply, there is an on-site generator which is subject to instances like this. The staff were nice. I can’t say I had the experience that a lot of other people did in the reviews of outstanding service that made the trip magical though (and we tipped a lot - my wife is in the service industry, it is a must).

Beautiful place to stay and relax, the only thing is that food and drinks are very pricey. Front desk Ale was very helpful in all my needs and very professional.

Overall, Villa Pescadores has friendly staff and they do their best to help you throughout your stay with any questions or services you need. The resort is small but enjoyable on a beautiful, sunny day. And the views are great. I have to say though, the accessibility of the location of Villa Pescadores is less than ideal. It is located inside a national park that you have to pay to access during the day and there is a lot of construction throughout the park which made getting around tough some days. It is also located quite far from the town of Tulum and the rest of the hotel zone which requires transportation to access other area. In regards to transportation- there are pedal bikes available for rental through VP but on a hot day, it is very hard to use them and it is a far commute. They also offer AVT/Moped rentals through a 3rd party company which was great for getting around but can be pricey. The taxis in Tulum are not worth it as they are very expensive. This is information we wish we had been provided before we arrived at VP. The beach club restaurant also closed at 5pm everyday which made eating at the hotel very difficult. If it is raining, you are also very limited for options for dining and things to do close to VP. There was one instance with a server at the attached beach club that put quite a sour taste into mine and my husbands stay at VP so be insistent on making sure you speak to someone without a language barrier.
