My Wife and I spent our honeymoon here at Selina Tulum it was Beautiful affordable place to relax on the beach.
The water is fabulously warm and clean.
Close to places with music and good food.
Rooms: 5 | Service: 5 | Location: 5
Rooms: Rooms and bathrooms ok - clean.
The air conditioning works very well
Safety: There is 24-hour security in the hotel itself.
On the street, safely, within the resort limits.
Food & drinks: Very tasty breakfasts with a sea view.
Noteworthy details: It's best to travel by rented car to see a little more than what the offices offer.
Watch out for speed bumps, which are plentiful and often difficult to see, especially at night. And of course, holes are sometimes very dangerous.
Hotel highlights: Quiet, Great value
There is a DJ that plays from 3:00pm to 8:00pm so you can hear the bass playing from inside your bedroom but I didn’t care about it too much. Staff was very friendly and helpful.
Definitely will be coming back!
I liked the all female room. It was clean and spacious. The location is fantastic and right on the beach, but I was there to work in the co-working space, and I didn’t like the coworling room. I have been to other Selina hostels and the coworking space was much better. The AC wasn’t working when I was there and there were only 2 private rooms to work, and the WiFi was a bit spotty.
This is one of the worst hostels I have ever stayed in. There was a cockroach in the bathroom the first night I was there, the room never gets cleaned and the water from the shower comes out salty is weird. The staff are really rude, I asked the receptionist if I could have a bottom bunk bed and he said they couldn't assign me one and that they were all taken when it was a lie. Both nights I stayed there were a couple of bottom beds available. The beach is nice but the area is ridiculously expensive, you are better off staying in town as the prices are a lot lower and coming to the hotel zone for the beach.
The staff are terribly unpleasant.
I was asked to pay for the booking on arrival for this Caribbean beachfront hotel with sea view. Only after I had paid did the hostess inform me that neither the bar nor the restaurant were open during my stay due to building work, and that if I wanted breakfast or a cocktail I would have to cross the road, walk 5 minutes to some hotel that was not on the seafront.
No discount was offered, until I shouted like a skunk for 30 minutes (20% in the end).
It's not just unfair, it's a scam, pure and simple.
The room wasn't bad otherwise.
If you're not keen on this kind of surprise, get the hell out!
Animals! Tourists beware.
We were surrounded, roughed up, and pushed around by security for trying to leave the restaurant after a day at the beach because we didn't buy drinks there.(watch my video that I recorded right after being tackled)..
We just wanted to go to our car 5 feet away. You see the exit 5 feet in front of us in the video attached. I was literally tackled to the ground by the man on the right with the clip board.. what a horrible experience, be careful... the owner must obviously encourage this. Mexican mafia at its best.. it's one thing to stop tourists from entering at the beach, it's another thing to tackle them once they are already in the hotel in front of the exit.
If you want to go to a gangster Mexican restaurant, and have no self value or fear of death, then go here. Otherwise, tourists beware.
The hotel is very centrally located on a beautiful beach. There are also plenty of sunbeds on the beach. The breakfast is delicious and you can choose from several options. The staff at the hotel are very attentive and friendly. There are also lots of great free activities such as yoga with Irina😍. The massage on the beach by Alma is also very very good. The only thing that is a little annoying is the loud music all day. I think it would be enough if they only played party music in the afternoon. However, the music stops at 11 p.m. It is also recommended to book tours and transfers at reception, as it is much cheaper than with online providers. The rooms are very nice, but the bathroom was not that clean... But we would definitely book the Selina again.
We stayed at Selena Tulum for a week. Checking in was very easy. Not sure where to start but firstly thanks to “Gina” for all her kindness, she is our go to person during our stay. We booked a garden view bedroom and it’s amazing. We got a decent deal for our trip. This place has all the luxuries and is very decent. Simple things like Birds waking you up, Music from Mia is decent. Don't miss the night sky after 11:00 p.m. on the beach we literally did star gazing. Everyone at Selena are very kind from a person who carries our luggage (Milton) to someone who opens the gate for our car. Overall very satisfied with our stay. One-thing I recommend doing is try to register for the onsite events Yoga and other activities you can make some quality friendships. As this is our first time to Tulum we tried to explore the area and missed this.
