Cleanliness

Multiple reviews cite unpleasant sargassum piled on the beach causing a foul smell and preventing swimming; one guest reported black marks, a leaking toilet and a scorpion in the room—overall cleanliness and beach hygiene are notable negatives.
Service
10
Repeated praise for very friendly, attentive and helpful staff; several reviews highlight excellent service that made stays special.
Location
9.8
Consistently praised: beachfront location, great ocean views and proximity to the Sian Ka’an reserve; location is a major positive despite the sargassum issue.
Room Quality
9.6
Many guests describe beautiful, spacious bungalows and large bathrooms; however one detailed negative report mentions rotting wood, cracks and poor construction—overall rooms are mostly very good but with occasional serious defects.
Amenities
9.2
Pool, restaurant, private beach seating and garden are noted as attractive features; a few remarks about pool maintenance and nearby abandoned cabins slightly reduce the score.
Value for Money
7.2
Several guests explicitly call out poor value for the price charged (too expensive for the level of finish and services), including one guest who felt the stay was a major disappointment relative to cost.
Food and Beverage
9.2
Limited direct commentary; restaurant is mentioned positively by some, though one guest noted no breakfast included for the price—overall F&B impressions are generally good but not heavily detailed.
Overall Experience
10
Despite the recurring beach/sargassum problem and some isolated severe room issues, the majority of reviews describe a very warm, charming stay with great staff, location and rooms — net experience is highly positive for most guests.

Piccolo hotel rilassante sulla spiaggia
Pros:

Bell’hotel direttamente sulla spiaggia. Camera familiare molto spaziosa e in stile rustico messicano con bei colori. Abbiamo apprezzato molto la veranda esterna con sdraio ed amache e l’affaccio sul giardino di palme, dotato di ulteriori amache: il pomeriggio la brezza dalla spiaggia creava un bel clima rilassante.
Belle le parti comuni e la piccola spiaggia privata (non abbiamo potuto usufruirne a causa del sargasso in questo momento ma in altri periodi e’ sicuramente un plus dell’hotel).
Staff molto cordiale e disponibile a soddisfare le nostre richieste.
Ottimo rapporto qualità prezzo.
Ci tornerei con piacere

Cons:

Solo piccole cose. Metterei più basi di appoggio delle valigie nelle camere e ganci per appendere gli asciugamani nel bagno.

Hôtel magnifique mais sargasses !!!
Pros:

L’hôtel est très bien, mais c’est Tulum et les sargasses le problème

Cons:

Il ne faut plus aller à Tulum plus de 2 jours, il y a trop de Sargasses. C’est imbaignable. Prendre un hôtel sur la plage, c’est assez frustrant quand on ne peut pas se baigner… ça sent mauvais ++
Ça sent un peu l’hôtel qui a eu un âge d’or qui est derrière lui car les touristes fuient Tulum. J’y suis resté trois jours et si c’était à refaire, je ne ferai qu’une seule nuit… uniquement pour faire Coba et Punta Allen (même si la aussi c’est surcoté… puisqu’on arrive à une plage paradisiaque, plein de Sargasses…)

Très bel hôtel au bord de la mer des Caraïbes
Pros:

C’était la dernière nuit de notre beau voyage au Mexique. Nous avons été surclassées dans une suite sur le front de mer. Le personnel est adorable. Le petit déjeuner excellent. L’hôtel est très bien placé. Magnifique piscine

Cons:

Les sargasses mais nous savions et l’hôtel n’y est pour rien! Cela n’a pas gâché notre séjour

Un très bon séjour dans cet hôtel simple et chaleureux
Pros:

La localisation de l’hôtel, proche de la réserve naturelle de Sian Ka’an et la beauté des chambres

Cons:

Le fait de ne pas pouvoir se baigner dans la mer à cause des sargasses, mêmes si la Marina œuvrait d’arrache pied pour les enlever… Quelle tristesse !

Rapport qualité prix non satisfaisant
Pros:

. L'emplacement en bord de mer, malheureusement gâché par la présence d'une quantité importante de sargasses (voir les points négatifs).
. La gentillesse du personnel

Cons:

. Rapport qualité prix peu satisfaisant.
. Nous occupions un bungalow familial en bord de plage. La qualité de la construction et l'aménagement sont trop sommaires pour un hôtel de ce prix.
. Absence de décoration.
. Les sargasses amoncelées sur la plage de l'hôtel (voir photo) qui, à l'inverse de certains autres, ne les nettoie pas. D'où l'impossibilité totale de profiter de la plage et une odeur pestilentielle.

Pros:

Staff was amazing and extremely helpful. Paid attention to all the little details and made our stay extra special. Rooms were spacious and bed very comfortable. Great ocean view and excellent location right on the beach. Wish we stayed one more day just to enjoy the property.

Do not book this hotel
Pros:

It’s nice next to the ocean. That is the only positive point

Cons:

Do not go there. It is not a 4star hotel. Premises are shabby. Looks like there has been a flodding of the room with black marks everywhere. Wood in the hut was rotten and there were cracks everywhere in walls ceilings and floors. Our toilet was leaking, the electricity went out 4 times our first night and there was a giant scorpion in our room. We did not to want to stay here with our 6 year old girl and they said they would refund 3 nights out of 4. They did not. We payed a 1000 US dollars for this. Do not go there. (We travelled a lot and this is the biggest hotel scam we met)

Les sargasses rendent cet hôtel sans intérêt
Pros:

Les chambres étaient magnifiques, la piscine jolie

Cons:

La quantité de sargasses empêchant la baignade et nuisant a la vue depuis le bar. Pas de petit dejeuner inclus pour le prix...
