Pros +
- The staff was unbelievably helpful and the beach was right outside of our door. Nejeli (I apologize for the spelling) was particularly great.
- This hotel is really nice. It sits in this little cove area, slightly enclosed by rocks at the edge of both sides of the beach, with another hotel and business. So it feels kind of private and since I went in December, it wasn’t that busy so it was even more chill.It is at the beginning of the hotel zone as well where it isn’t as loud or party-ish which was nice for me.The beach was clean but the water was a little rough to swim or stand in at times. The sunrise is right in front of you and it’s wonderful.Saw a few iguanas on the rocks as well ?I had a partial ocean view room on the first floor and it was not bad at all! I could not only see the water but hear the ocean waves from the bed. The room was small but clean. The bathroom was also small but clean. The shower had hot water and worked well. I liked the sink outside the bathroom. The fan and AC worked well. The beds were modestly comfortable but the pillows were not comfortable for me. My neck had pains after sleeping on them so I had to sleep without them.There is a closet, lock box and a beach bag with beach towels to use. They also give you two bottles of water free.There are chairs and a hammock outside the front door but I found the hammock to be really uncomfortable sadly (very thin and cheap). A nice feet washing bowl with rose petals - nice touch.The breakfast came with the room and it was delicious. Nice options and Juanita was the best.Very pleasant staff all around and I enjoyed my stay there.The reception staff were also nice and allowed me to store my bags in their office on the last day after checkout and I could sit on the beach for a couple extra hours until I had to leave (they even let me use the beach towel too).Overall, highly recommend!
- Beautiful, right on beach, feeling of being secluded, staff very helpful and professional. Accommodating. Restaurant right there and very good!
Cons -
- Nothing really - Only wish there was a coffee maker and mini fridge in room like other hotels but not a deal breaker for me. There were many other details that still made this place wonderful.
- Espresso is to be paid extra for, it is bad, and even not available the last day. The beach which is de facto private was covered with tons of some kind of sea grass and therefore not usable at all. The hotel organized cleaning only after several days. the double beds were queensize, not the most comfortable for two adults.
- Was definitely due to the NYE partying, but we did find a used syringe on the beach the next morning by the hammocks. An extra cleaning would make it perfect.

the location, comfortable parking, restaurant terrace, beach. Breakfast is a la carte but with plenty of choice, both continenatal and local. Matresses are comfortable. Bathroom is decent.
Espresso is to be paid extra for, it is bad, and even not available the last day. The beach which is de facto private was covered with tons of some kind of sea grass and therefore not usable at all.

Great location right on the beach. Breakfast was REALLY good. Had dinner there a few nights, too. And beers and guacamole on the beach. The staff was wonderful, accommodating, sweet and helpful. It’s close to a couple of restaurants, a few shops and a mini mart. It’s not a LUXURY experience but for four nights of sun and surf it was perfect!
Stayed here with a friend for New Year's and we loved it. Cute little beach alcove that feels private, has a simple but great breakfast menu, and has easy direct access to fun restaurants and shops right on the hotel zone. The staff was extremely helpful whenever we had questions and gave us multiple drink vouchers for our stay. Would absolutely recommend staying here if you're looking to get away and enjoy what Tulum has to offer!
Was definitely due to the NYE partying, but we did find a used syringe on the beach the next morning by the hammocks. An extra cleaning would make it perfect.
The whole hotel was a dream! We woke up to a view of the ocean, spent our day lounging on the private beach and enjoyed some very tasty food in the restaurant. The whole hotel is only 8 rooms which was perfect for us and there are enough sun loungers for all the rooms. Breakfast was also great and the staff provided us a box lunch when we had an early start and missed the breakfast service.
Unfortunately the hotel has less dreamy neighbours that played loud music each night until late. The official end time is apparently midnight but on two of our nights this was until 5/2am. We found we were still able to sleep without issue but it took a shine off our stay.
Friendly staff and rooms right next to the beach.
If you are a light sleeper noise could be an issue since there are a few bars next to the property.
Great location. Simple, tasteful rooms. Good breakfast. Charming service.
The room was right in front of the ocean. Staff were excellent and always available. Breakfast was delicious with a nice selection. This location had active turtle activity (laying eggs on beach). There was always enough beach chairs and palapas.
For the price, the owner needs to spend more money on maintenance. The toilet stopped up twice and the roof leaked in several places. The beach unfortunately is not good swimming.
Very nice bungalows right on the beautiful beach. Everything was just great, including details, for instance there is a bag with beach towels for your disposal, little candles for romantic atmosphere... Loved this accomodation.
Our room was right on the beach and listening to the waves was wonderful. Bed was comfortable. The restaurant had a great, varied breakfast menu...all delicious and right on the beach. Restaurant seemed to be always open, they had amazing guac. The staff especially Martin and Yaneli (I don't think I am remembering her name correctly?), both were so helpful. My wife became a little sick and Martin had the chef make her chicken soup. Very thoughtful! The housekeeper, Margarita, was so responsive and helpful with our needs (clean towels, etc). How exciting to see the tracks of huge turtles who came up and laid their eggs on the beach (some guests actually saw them!). The beach is comfortable with palapas and chairs, always available. Small hotel, so no crowds.
The owners need to spend some time on maintenance. Our toilet stopped working twice and the roof leaked twice. Staff immediately helped with repairs. The beach really isn't swimmable, but to be fair Tulum doesn't have many beaches that were. This hotel, in my opinion is over priced a bit because of the maintenance issues and older furniture.
Location on the beach was perfect. The rooms were so cute and comfy. Breakfast was so good as all the hotel staff
The property was amazing, the rooms cute and clean. The hotel is right by the beach. The staff: Eusebio, Martin and Frank very helpful and attentive. The food is delicious!
The fact that was impossible to swim in the beach due to sargasso and the unsafe conditions of the water. Also for breakfast, the portions of the food were very small! If you wanted more fresh juice that was extra, more eggs same thing.There is not oatmeal on the menu or green tea,it was a little disappointing, but the hotel in general is super charming!
We loved our stay here. The hotel is a little bit of an older style but it’s kept extremely clean and managed well. The
We had a lovely stay at Hotel Piedra Escondida. It was a beautiful property with very comfortable rooms. Martin and Nayali were so kind and helped us with all our inquiries!
Our two-night stay here was simply wonderful. The staff, especially Martin and the chef, were incredibly attentive, friendly, and helpful, making us feel right at home. The breakfast was a highlight, with delicious options that set a great tone for the day.The hotel is well-maintained, clean, and comfortable, offering a peaceful retreat. Its location, just a short drive from town with a shared private beach, provided convenience without sacrificing tranquility. Waking up to the ocean view from our room was a treat.Surrounded by nearby restaurants and shops, the hotel felt connected yet secluded enough for a relaxing stay. We had such a lovely time here and would gladly return in the future.
Lovely position on the beach within easy reach of bars and shops. Hotel staff were all excellent and always happy to help. Loved the easy of hiring bikes and venturing out.
Obviously behold hotels control but Sargassum season had arrived and invaded the beach and although they worked hard to remove it you were unable to go into the sea. Therefore potentially in the future a pool would be a worth while investment.
Beautiful beach and the location was great! Really enjoyed the breakfasts too. We stayed in room 8 and loved it! The view was fantastic and we had our own deck and lounge chairs.
Sargassum seaweed, which they can’t do much about! They had guys taking it off the beach though! And our bed was very uncomfortable.
Piedra Escondida is a small, intimate hotel located directly on the beach. We were comfortable there and spent a great few days. Loved being able to walk right out onto the beach. The room was good sized, clean and not overly fancy. The location is great, not in the main hotel zone, but close to shops and restaurants. Free parking is right across the street. The restaurant was great, the breakfast was wonderful!
The beach is in a little cove, and a lot of seaweed washes in and sticks around. The hotel staff was actively removing it every day, but it was windy and seemed more vegetation arrived every day. It made swimming less appealing, but there are other beaches along the coast not far away to swim.
