Kaua Vacations from $375

Positives: Super charming and welcoming hotel with an amazing pool and rooftop. Staff was friendly and helpful. It’s not in the middle of the city where most restaurants are, but an easy 10–15 minute walk gets you there. There’s a great supermarket right across Avenida Cobá, and parking is conveniently in front of the hotel. They offer beach towels, and our room was comfortable. Best of all, there are three super cute and friendly orange cats living on the property. Ok: Breakfast is included but with limited options; still decent to start the day. The shower drain was initially too tight, preventing proper water flow, but loosening it solved the issue. Negatives: Towels could be fluffier, no non-dairy milk options at breakfast, and our balcony’s sliding door was hard to pull. Overall: A cozy, cat-friendly boutique stay with a great location and relaxing amenities — with a few small details that could make it even better.

The hotel was fairly nice but the surroundings and smell from the beach was awful. The beach looked horrific because of the sludge and seamoss, which I assumed created the awful smell. There should be clear notifications posted on the hotel site regarding the beach area so that travelers are aware to ensure the stay is accommodating for them. You definitely could not enjoy the beach or the view

Need some maintenance

Best hotel with great staff and great rooms

Our stay at Casa Gitano was only one night and it was far down the single road going into Tulum (about 30 mins). We enjoyed the beautiful beach view from our room. The room was smaller than we imagined at 500 sq ft but we had just enough space for two. The major issue was the water. We had no hot water the entire time. It got lukewarm at best. But overall we still enjoyed our stay.
