AQUA VIVA Tulum

I visited Aqua Viva last year at this time as well. The warm, welcoming, slightly eccentric vibe here is the reason I will keep coming back. April offers a slower and more chill pace in Tulum which allows you to get to know the locals. Giorgio the owner of Aqua Viva and his staff are wonderful at making you feel at home in his gorgeously designed hotel. He has great insight into where the best restaurants (Humo is a MUST and is attached to the hotel and vegan friendly), beaches, and sights to experience. I prefer to stay in the city opposed to the main beach. Not only does this give you a realer experience it also saves you a bit of cash. I would recommend renting a scooter to get yourself to the beach as this place is about 15 mins from the strip. Cenotes and lagoons are everywhere along the one main road in town so it is easy to navigate your way around. I was fortunate to be able to stay in a few rooms on different nights which all offer huge beds with high quality linens. The bathrooms are STUNNING in design. All the rooms open to a central pool that is breathtaking and always seems to be the perfect temperature. For anyone looking for an instagram worthy spot this is the place. No TVs but if you need a TV in a place like this there is something wrong with you. Enjoy and say hi to Giorgio for me. …

Hotel was very good and nice. Pools area was great also, many pools and lots of activities for everybody. Rooms are nice, big and clean. Allinclusive foods was good. Kids like the deserts very much. Waterpark next to the hotel was great also. Slides for adults snd small kids.

Loved it here, after a couple of weeks of traveling Mexico & Belize this was a lovely chilled final few days before we flew home. The beds are so comfy! Booked through Booking.com where the pictures showed a partially open bathroom so we stayed in a standard room the first night and the next morning I said to Jose that we were under the impression we were staying in a different room and straight away he moved us to the room we thought we were staying in for no extra cost. Lovely pool steps away from your door, lots of cool birds and lizards in the garden. The fire pit & Copal incense was lovely to come back to after going out for dinners. Staff were really friendly & theres some good food places near by. We’ll definitely be coming back if we return to Tulum, thanks again guys! :) …

I absolutely loved staying at Aquaviva! So much that ended up flying back within a week to spend 10 days with my brother as we were looking for a place to relax and feel at home. The location is perfect and the whole team is very helpful Jose the manager will go The extra mile to make you feel comfortable and facilitate your time in Tulum.
