Cute, small, super clean cabanas right on the beach. A bit pricey for what you get--in comparison with similar accomodations in Tulum. Towels, sheets, and facilities were spotless. Staff is friendly but could be more efficient: breakfasts were usually between 30, even 40 minutes late; staff was slow in solving problems in the cabin--and in some some cases they did... More

Marfil was awesome and breezy! Beautiful small touches and super relaxing. Manuel was very friendly and helpful. The service was outstanding- helped us set up snorkeling, called us a cab, got us extra water, offered a free cooler to use during our stay. No complaints here except the coffee. But you can just walk to Posada Margarita for a cappuccino! More

The cabañas are beautiful and very unique..the beach is great and the service is good and very friendly. In that beachfront Posada you can enjoy the stars at night with an ocean sound background music and candle lights or wake up with a... More

Such a special location! Impecable, warming, welcoming and efficient staff. Really beautifull, natural cabannas made on recylcled materials with pretty good taste. Great habit of cutting electricity form midnight on. Lighting in the rooms to be improved. The rest, simply perfect. Special thanking mention to Adriana on the reception. Somewhere to recommend....or maybe to keep in secret! More

Everything was great, the place, the service, the location. The only thing that really bothered me was this guy at the front desk (evening shift), that i caught drinking alcohol, Everything was great, but I need to mention this for the hotel to take some action, and I don't want to blame the whole place for 1 persons mistake. Besides... More

"don't worry, be hippy" was our greeting. a piece of paradise where sound of ocean waves wipes everything clean. not for those dependent upon electricity. only suggestion for improvement is a little more generosity/variety to breakfast, given the price. beautiful people. More

We stayed 2 nights in mid March. The room was nice etc. It was peaceful and breezy. We had planned to treat ourselves a bit after staying at the much cheaper coco tulum nearby. Basically it was what we were looking for. But the little things really let it down and we left feeling like we should have gone back... More
