We had an amazing time. Breakfast was free and delicious, you stay right on a beautiful peaceful beach, a rustic, bohemian feel. All the staff was super friendly and helpful. Great area with lots of dining options.it was a paradise. Some cons…there were only 3 hangers, and only one hook for the bath towels. No shower door so the bathroom got quite wet. Other than that, we loved it. Comfy beds, private balconies, highly recommend!

Have to admit first impression was, what did i book? But although the rooms werent fancy or big, they are quaint with rustic touches, with a beatiful sitting area that was private. We were steps from a beautiful beach, and an open aired restaurant with beautiful views.

Perfect location.
Great location, right on the beach. Breakfast included was yummy. Internet not the greatest in the rooms, but better outdoors (balcony, restaurant). Would recommend 2nd floor room with balcony - originally booked 1st floor, but was very dark. They easily moved us to different room (for a cost), but well worth it! Immediate town had shops, restaurants within walking - super cute!

I had a fantastic experience during my stay. The food was absolutely outstanding, offering a wide variety of options that were not only delicious but also surprisingly affordable. The hotel's location was another highlight, nestled in a secluded area near the beach with only a handful of hotels in the vicinity. This provided a sense of exclusivity, making it feel like a private paradise. In summary, I can't speak highly enough of my time there - it was a truly exceptional experience!

One of my best vacations ever! Small hotel which is perfect if you just need to get away from all of the noise. Clean room, spectacular views, staff was so nice, so friendly and helpful. The food in the restaurant on-site was beyond delicious - fresh, fresh, fresh! Best fish tacos I have ever had. The location was perfect - excellent restaurants and shopping within walking distance. Not crowded, not touristy (if this is your preference) but plenty of attractions within a short taxi, bike or scooter ride. The Mayan ruins were stunning - small (compared to Chichen Itza) but a must see nonetheless. I cannot say enough about the Punta Piedra Beach Posada and it's location in Tulum! I am so looking forward to going back!

Cute beach hotel with nice pool and on-site restaurant. Easy access to beach. Located on the beach but about a 50 minute walk from the hotel zone which meant chilled beach vibes and nice distance to the party beach vibes.

Unfortunately, the hotel was not what we expected; the beach was dirty, and the food was not good. They offered breakfast included, but it was not good; we tried it the first day and did not come back. I recommend staying in the city of Tulum and driving from there to the Cenotes and Kaletas.

I loved the location of this place. It is convenient to move to the town “el Pueblo”, to the ruins, Cenotes, etc. I move around by bike. It has its own pool and beach. The restaurant “My Vida” has high-quality food although it is expensive, but food is expensive everywhere in the “ Zona Hotelera”.

Wonderful retreat by the beach!
We loved this little beach-side retreat in Tulum's hotel zone! This is a smaller, utterly charming hotel, NOT a big, all-inclusive pretentious resort, which was perfect for us. Touches of pastel sea-worn wood, rustic fixtures and decor, sandy walkways between buildings. You're steps away from their beach, complete with covered cabanas, hammocks, and plenty of sand. Some people complained about the seaweed in other reviews but it was honestly not even a big deal at all and is def not controlled by the hotel. It was a wonderful place to retreat to. The rooms themselves are a little older, but still well-maintained and clean. The staff are also wonderful: from the front desk to the waitstaff, everyone was so friendly and helpful. Breakfast was delicious and beachside: choice of eggs or pancakes, and perfect to fuel up before you start your day. I thought the location was perfect: you're not in the super glitzy, clubby night life area (so it's quiet at night), you're right next to the beach, and also still relatively close to Tulum town. Also, there's a fantastic coffee place across the street. We stayed here our entire week in Tulum and are so happy we chose a more laid-back place like this.

We loved the boho look of this property and it was super cute. We had a room on the ground floor ocean front which was nice. BUT One morning woke up with cockroaches in our room☹️ We think they must have come out of the shower drain. And the beach was covered in Sargassum so un-swimmable because they didn’t make any effort to remove it. Location was so so… quiet to sleep but expensive to get to anywhere for dinner. There’s a restaurant attached on the property which does a very very simple breakfast which is included but they won’t even give you a fork to use without a lot of attitude. Super disappointing. Staff at the hotel was super nice- cleaned our room and made cute animals for us.

Hotel was great. Excellent location. Staff are friendly, smiley and welling to help. Clean. We had the best room ever that is right infront of the beach and pool. I know for fact that Hotel is an old style or like a chalet! But the ambiance was great. Got a little bit disappointed of the beach was full of seaweed. That is not their fault. Only one thing i was not really happy about is that the hotel restaurant charged tips AND service!!! Did not understand what is difference between them and it was charging more than it should be. I know its suppose to be a percentage of the receipt yet they charged almost the same amount whether we ordered a main meal or a small thing! Like it was alot i find. Other than that.

Punta Piedra Posada was a wonderful unique experience! The rooms were clean and rustic yet authentic to the area and right on the beach. Walking distance to so many shops and restaurants, yet scooter and bike rentals are readily available too. Chalitos Restaurant is right next door and the chef, Ben, was so unbelievably friendly and makes the best shrimp tacos ever!

Terrible hotel. We were out in room B. The air conditioner and toilet did not work upon arrival. We let them know and they said they would come and fix it. First night we sweated all night and couldn't sleep. The next day they came and "fixed" it. The cleaning lady even said our room was so hot and the other rooms are super cold. Not ours! It wasn’t until day 3 the AC felt just a little better. Was still uncomfortable to sleep and get ready in! The toilet did not work properly the whole stay. We asked again and the manager said the air was fixed. It isn't. We asked if we could be moved to a different room, he said no it's sold out, which wasn’t true. We asked if we could check out and get our money back, he said no refunds. So basically, screw us! His couldn’t have cared less!!! I would also like to mention the room wasn't clean upon arrival. It looked tidy, but the shower had a lot of sand on the ground and the coffee cups had leftover sugar and coffee in them which means they didn't clean the fridge area at all!!! The fridge didn’t get cold for two days. The last two it decided to work so we were drinking warm water for a couple days. Terrible resort, avoid it at all cost. I travel a lot and this is the worst place I have ever stayed. I don’t recommend it!

Just stayed here and it was absolutely magical. The staff, especially Luis, felt like family and they were all so friendly and accommodating. We even watched the sea turtles lay eggs with them! The room had excellent AC and a lovely terrace. The property itself is stunning and feels authenticity Tulum in a way that the hotels further down the beach do not. The pool is clean and warm and the FREE breakfast is great. While a touch rustic, I would not have traded our experience here for the world. Thank you Punta Piedra.

This place has my heart! A gem of a place!
After a nightmare of events with a double booking (NOT the resort’s fault- thank you, Gabrielle for helping sort out that mess), we had the time of our lives! I’ve been to Tulum before and was eager to explore more - I was not disappointed! This hotel is located in the perfect spot- close to tons of restaurants, shops, bars, and entertainment. We had room #21 and the view was breathtaking. Private balcony on the beach with incredible sunrises! The bar and food are great, too! Suggestions: 1) rent a 4 wheeler but DO NOT rent from the place next door. They require you to leave your passport (no thanks). Go down the road in the same direction & there’s a much better spot on your left- ask for Alejandro! We trekked all over Tulum on the ATV and I only wish we would have rented it the whole time (you NEED it to get around). 2) Travel south for more dining and nightlife. It’s worth it. SO MANY incredible places to eat & things to do! 3) Eat at Taboo (swanky beach club also great for a day hang out), Azulik (it’s next to the hotel- book ahead & go to the nests for drinks). Ziggy’s, Potheads, Boccocino, & Mateo’s (get the Baja bites & say hi to José). 4) STAY OFF THE ROADS IN TOWN. Cops made us pay $150 USD to pass. 5) Go to the Mayan Ruins, then head down the side road (follow the crowd) to the right when you leave- AMAZING little area with a ton of stuff to do! 6) Visit cenotes!! 7) book this hotel… it’s the perfect spot to relax & it’s super clean/comfy! We LOVE Tulum!
