If opening up your door and being right on the beach is your thing, than you’ll love this place. The room was spotless and our one meal at the restaurant was superb. The sole drawback was the constant winds. The ocean was just too choppy to ever enjoy a swim.

I loved this place. I stayed here before going to a retreat and it was exactly what I needed. I stayed in the superior double room. I had a view of the ocean & steps from the ocean. There is a small private beach but because of the seaweed wasn’t swimmable. There’s access to a public beach a short walk away and I swam there . The food was amazing , the breakfast was included and there were many options for breakfast. If you’re looking for quiet this place is it. I went to sleep with the sound of the ocean which was very relaxing. The Staff was always friendly and helpful, Nayeli was lovely and always very helpful. Will definitely return!

The entire staff was fantastic. Genuinely friendly & helpful. Location & service can’t by beat - on the beach, lovely setting & view, not crowded or loud, comfortable, yummy adjoining restaurant plus dining & shopping walkable. Only drawback was no pool & the beach had a lot of seaweed, but one staff worked tirelessly to remove it & a common problem for all of the Yucatán. Without being asked, they made my daughter’s 16th birthday extra special! Would return in a heartbeat.

Hotel Piedra Escondida was a beautiful, clean and relaxing place to stay amongst what can be a crazy area in the hotel/beach zone of Tulum. With its own small beach, excellent restaurant and friendly, helpful staff, we had a great time staying here and would recommend to anyone coming to Tulum looking to be near the beaches.

The hotel, food, view and the location were perfect. The restaurant was unique and delicious. Ask the chef to make you a seafood dinner of his choice and you will not be disappointed. We loved the simple comfort/luxury of the room and the spectacular view/access to salt water. Having great food, drinks, a private beach on property plus a parking lot for a rental car was great and allowed us to visit ruins, town, etc. We rented bikes and biked all over the hotel zone. Also we were able to shop in some cute shops near by. Close to trendy Kintoh and safe places to run/bike in the mornings if you want. We would stay there again! Perfect getaway.

We have travelled a lot but this has been one of the best hotels we have ever stayed at. The accommodation is rustic and charming but not cheap quality at all. Little touches are thought through like foot baths at each the little apartment. The beach is private and so pretty. Sadly a lot of plastic waste litters the beach but that isn’t the hotels fault. It washes in from the sea. The real highlight is their menu. Breakfast lunch and dinner! Every meal is extraordinary. The chef is amazing! We went out for dinner one night and never did it again. Had every meal at Piedra Escondida because it was so good. The included breakfasts are enormous and delicious. Food is absolutely stunning. Martin was so helpful as well helping us arrange economical taxis for some longer day trips to Coba and early morning taxis for us to meet our group tour to chichen itza. I would stay at Piedra Escondida again in a heartbeat. We had a thoroughly enjoyable time. Muchos Gracias.

EXCELLENT place to relax

EXCELLENT! Cute 8 room hotel right on the beach - almost private! Great food at the hotel restaurant. Staff was super friendly and front desk was extremely helpful answering questions via email before arrival. The hotel is on the quiet side of hotel zone - very peaceful but not much to see or do on that side. If you like quiet peaceful stress free...this is the spot.

Simple but nice

No frills, simple hotel that feels authentically Mexican. Friendly and helpful staff, beautiful little private beach. Great location. Only complaint is that when we were there, there was very loud club music playing at night until 2am. We were traveling with our son so putting him to bed at 8pm was challenging.

Amazing boutique hotel in perfect spot

Beautiful boutique hotel in an immaculate location. Private beach cove, enough loungers for every guest, so you can relax and never have to wake up early and claim a spot. Breakfast on the beach was delicious. Service great. It’s a simple spot with no frills, but that’s part of why it’s great. It’s away from the hordes of influencers, it’s quiet, it feels organic and connected to nature.

I recently stayed at Hotel Piedra Escondida in Tulum, and I can’t say enough good things about this charming, small hotel. With only 10 rooms, it offers an intimate, tropical vibe that feels like a hidden paradise. The property is incredibly well-maintained, spotlessly clean, and the service is absolutely top-notch. Martin, the manager, truly went above and beyond to accommodate all our special requests, making our stay even more memorable. This was my third time visiting Tulum, but my first experience staying in this quieter part of the hotel zone, near the ruins and the public beach. It’s such a peaceful area, far removed from the hustle and bustle of the south side. The only minor downside is that the beach here isn’t as stunning as some others in Tulum, but that’s not a big issue since you can always visit one of the many beach clubs nearby. For the price, the excellent service, and the overall experience, this hotel is absolutely worth it. To top it all off, the food is delicious, and the included breakfast was a wonderful way to start each day. I highly recommend Hotel Piedra Escondida for anyone looking for a tranquil, high-quality stay in Tulum. I’ll definitely be back!

Everything about the hotel was amazing. It feels like an oasis in a busy area. The rooms had everything we needed and the staff went above and beyond to make sure we had a great time. The beds were comfortable and the water pressure was great. The complementary breakfast, coffee and daily juice was very good. You choose from multiple different dishes and the portions are definitely filling. I really enjoyed sitting on the deck and eating every morning right on the ocean. The chairs and umbrellas are reserved for hotel guests only so there always somewhere to sit. 10/10 recommend this hotel. If we are ever back in the area we will definitely be staying there again.
