Hi!! We're wanting to go out tomorrow and have a meal booked at Arca. Are there any places people recommend for a night out along the beach or would you recommend going up to Centro?

Hi everyone! We’re a group of four staying at Nômade Tulum and planning to go to Full Moon Rising at Gitano Beach on October 24. We’d love to meet some friendly people to hang out with and enjoy the evening together. Anyone else going? Feel free to comment or send me a DM!

my friends and i (all 23f)are visiting tulum in November mid (14-19)- how is the party scene during that time? and any recommendations for parties in budget (under 100usd)

Hi everyone!
My partner and I are from Argentina, and we’re planning to stay in Tulum from December 30, 2026, to January 30, 2027.
We’re looking for an entire apartment or condo for two people, ideally with 1 or 2 bedrooms. Our maximum budget is $1,200 USD for the entire stay, including all taxes and fees.
We’d prefer a safe area, ideally within a 10–15 minute bike ride from the beach.
We’ve been checking Airbnb and other rental websites, but prices seem pretty high for those dates.
Does anyone have recommendations for trustworthy local rental agencies, websites, Facebook groups, or property owners offering monthly rentals?
We’re also open to renting directly from owners, as long as it’s safe and legitimate.
Any tips or personal experiences would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks in advance!

Any travelers or locals alike interested in organizing a morning coffee get-together sometime this week? Nothing crazy or too committal, just a way for us all to connect?

Im noticing what seems to be quite a few solo travelers wandering around town so if you’re one of them, so am I! Hi 👋🏼

What do you think about airlines canceling flights to Tulum?

My friends and I are in Tulum right now and we've noticed a lot of spots feel pretty empty. Are there any beach clubs with a chill vibe that still have a decent amount of people at this time of year?

Hi everyone! I'm traveling to Tulum in November with a group of people, and I'm looking for recommendations for the absolute safest, most reliable private transportation company from Cancun Airport to our villa in Tulum (and back). The trip is about 1hr 40 mins from airport to villa.

There will be 3 of us on the way there and 5 on the return trip. I'm organizing transportation for the group, so I really want to make sure I'm choosing a reputable, trustworthy company that everyone can feel comfortable with.

Budget is not a concern. I'm more than willing to pay extra for peace of mind. I don't necessarily need a luxury vehicle, but I do want a comfortable, well-maintained vehicle, professional and vetted drivers, excellent communication, and a company with a strong track record for safety and reliability.

I've seen USA Transfers recommended quite a bit, but I'm also looking into Black Luxury Service and SEVA Tulum.

For those who have made this trip, which company would you trust the most? I'd really appreciate firsthand experiences, both positive and negative!

Thank you!

We’re staying in Bacalar for a week in January and still deciding where to stay on the Yucatan peninsula for the 2nd week.

We’ve never seen the Caribbean so we’re pretty intent on getting a beachfront room/suite. Tulum is our most likely choice.

Beachfront room is non-negotiable. Optimally with a nice private outdoor lounging area/patio/terrace to lounge in during the day.

We were about to book at Nomade but we were slightly turned off by having to pay the full balance up front, especially after reading about Our Habitas shutting down overnight.

Who’s had good similar experiences where?

Gracias!

A group of us are heading to Tulum for NYE. None of us have been before. Where’s the best place to party on NYE?

Any tips on which cenotes have the clearest waters right now, given the heavy rains last weekend?

I recently learned some cenotes become very cloudy and can take a few weeks to clear up.

Thanks in advance, y'all!

Hello everyone! I have an upcoming trip to Tulum and will be arriving at Tulum Airport. The latest departure to Tulum Centro showing on the ADO app is 3:30 PM. Does anyone know if there are later buses that aren't listed online? I've seen people mention that buses run pretty frequently, so I'm wondering if I could just purchase a ticket at the airport, or does this mean the later departures are already sold out? Any help or tips are appreciated, thanks so much!

Hi,

Me and my partner are visiting in November. We are staying some hotels in the hotel zone and also in some air Bnbs in La Valeta but we are looking for something in between with a bit of atmosphere where we can meet other travelers. Would you recommend Mayan monkey or che? Which do you think will be the busiest? Has anyone got any recent photos or videos of the amesphere in either.

🐒

Cheers

Any recs for mexican eats maybe in the town center? Chilaquiles, refritos, even a burrito. I’m staying in the hotel zone but wanting to explore other places. Bonus if vegetarian adjacent.

Hi all! My fiancée and I are debating what time of year would be better to have our wedding in Tulum. We aren’t doing a beach wedding, so the actual condition of the beach won’t be a huge factor. I am more concerned about the weather and temperature we will be subjected to 😂 especially considering wedding attire and hair and makeup. We have been to Tulum once, and it was early July. It was very hot from what I remember, and I was probably wearing shorts and a tank top, still burning up. Anyone have personal experience here on what is best and what would be more comfortable, and what some of the potential trade-offs would be?

Hey all traveling down soon with my somewhat elderly mother. I'm hoping to get in a day or two of cenotes diving. Ideally somewhere that my mom could come along in the van and snorkel that's pretty. Any shops offer this? Thanks

Edit: bonus points for any unusual/less traveled cenotes as I did many of the most popular ones recently.

Hi everyone! My boyfriend and I are traveling to Tulum at the end of the month and we'll be staying at Kan Hotel.
For anyone who's stayed there, what did you think of the hotel and its location?
We'll have a rental car anyway, but we're a bit worried about leaving it parked in town or near the beach clubs. Is car break-in/theft something we should be concerned about? Would you recommend using taxis instead when going into town or to the beach clubs, or is it generally safe to drive and park?
And lastly, what beach clubs would you recommend for a couple? We'd love to hear your favorites, especially places with a nice atmosphere, good food/drinks, and a beautiful beach.
Any tips or recommendations for Tulum would be greatly appreciated!

How do the colectivos work in Tulum?
Where can I find the routes and schedules?
I'd like to go from La Veleta to Chedraui or the beach (hotel zone and the north end of Tulum beach) or Playa del Carmen.
Does it go to south to the lagoon?

I have heard there was a mass layoff with no severance for the staff and the guests were stranded with no power and water. Is it all true ?

I am looking for a mobile massage service for me and my friend for a long term booking 4x a week for a good deal. Can anyone recommend me someone that is reasonably priced and also knows how to massage / handle pregnant women? Preferably massage / lymph drainage package

Are there yoga places with AC in Tulum that are also open during October?

Studios with strong fans on full blast could be an alternative.

Thanks in Advance. Tulum is awesome (outside the hotel zone)!!

Hey all!

I’ll be returning to tulum for the 4th time this February. So far it’s just been me and my kids (2018, 2023, 2025) but this year we are empty nesters and it’s just me and my husband- his first visit. I don’t know anything about adult-focused tulum.

I’ve always used the public beaches with no complaints but for our couple trip I’d love to treat myself to a daybed at a beach club. Can anyone recommend their fave beach club/s that’s not a total rip-off? I have no problem with a reasonable minimum spend and prefer a chill non-party vibe. I do not want to feel like I crashed a bachelor party.

Also looking for your favorite late-ish night spot for a drink (like 9 pm lol) - not in the ZH. I’ve never stayed out past dinner time!

And… your fave cenote. I’ve done gran cenote, & cenotes calavera (least fave), cristal, and escondito. What should I do next??? My taxi driver last year recommended cenote corazón so that’s high on my list.

We won’t have a car, if that matters for recs. I rented e-bikes last year and it was awesome. No problem getting to the beach, town, and cenotes by bike. We biked everywhere except the airport. Planning to do that again.

Thank youuuuu.

My Fiancé and I are planning out our wedding and we really liked our site visit of the Amber Epices Jungle Villa. We decided to move forward with them and we are attempting to make our deposit payment but the payments continuously get declined by our banks. We’ve had calls with the banks to allow the transactions, but trying again leads to the same result, transaction blocked.

We met the on-site concierge during our visit and he was great and very informative, but now we are communicating with the property manager who lives in Morocco to actually complete the booking.

The payment link they sent us looks pretty sketchy (it’s called secure and pay dot com - I’m spelling it out, it’s a URL). I don’t see much online presence for the payment portal and I think it’s odd we are being asked to pay in Euros rather than Pesos or USD.

Looking up the venue, they have a great instagram page, and people in the area know about it and has been mentioned on several wedding venue review sites, even one of the planners we are working with has it on their list of venues they’ve done before so we are fairly confident that the venue is a legitimate operation but this payment process has been horrible and has reduced our confidence in our first choice of venue.

Has anyone here had experience with this venue? If so, did you encounter similar issues with paying for the space? Any help is appreciated!

Hi there! My husband & I are planning our Baby Moon & we are wanting to go somewhere decently priced with a beach! I love Mexico so much & have never been to Tulum, so that is what we are thinking! I will be around 30 weeks at the time (early November). Obviously, I’m not looking to do any crazy excursions or anything like that. Maybe just checking out the area & enjoying ourselves :) Has anyone been to Tulum in November that can tell me what it is like? More so, if anyone has been while pregnant! Any recommendations? I’ll take any tips/advice! Thank you! 🩷

Been checking the weather app & see nothing but rain showers. Should i be concerned ?!
