Top Local Tips for Tulum

Location, Location, Location If you are staying on the coast road, book as far away from the ruins as possible! All the resorts near to the ruins are crammed in, and there is a busy noisy road right outside, at some points right on top of the beach! The further down the road towards the Sian Ka'an nature reserve the quieter and more secluded the resorts come. La Via Laktea is quite a way down so did have a great location. Use a mapping website to check out the location of resorts before booking - do your research!

Get a hire car Most of the cabanas are a long way away from the sights and city centre. Taxis although cheap build up the costs if used every day so get a hire car or bike.

La Zebra and Mezanine The best places to eat and enjoy a beach cocktail are at La Zebra on the South end, and Mezanine on the North end. Both have amazing food,, great drinks....and the perfect beach decks to enjoy the beautiful blue water!!!! Try the fresh sugar cane mojitos at La Zebra!
