Our stay was good overall. We loved our treehouse suite but had intermittent issues with the water. We had no water for a day during out our 3 night stay. The issue resolved that evening but the water temperature and pressure was inconsistent for the entire duration of our stay.

I had the most relaxing stay at IKAL. i booked a trip to celebrate my birthday month. The hotel concierge was super helpful in booking my private airport pick up and drop off. Everything was super smooth. I booked the maya plunge and it was stunning. The room and property were well kept. The food was delicious and staff super friendly. The wellness programs were included with my stay and were super therepeutic. I booked a private tour to visit the ruins, cenote and ven a la luz. The hotel arranged a private tour guide Nelson who was amazing. Words can't describe how beautiful this sanctuary is. So close to the ruins and surrounded by the sea and jungle. I will surely be back again!!! Mucho gracias Ikal!!!

Amazing stay for nature lovers! It’s absolutley beautiful here the staff and very kind and helpful! They have so many unique private accommodations that all have their own charm! They have a variety of activities for their guest such as yoga, healing ceremonies, sound bath ect… The hotel is family friendly as well. Tulum is very expensive, so be prepared to pay more for everything in général in comparaison to other places Mexico but Ikal still deserves 5 stars because the higher cost applies to all of Tulum. We had the best time and enjoyed this breathtaking hotel, we are already planning to go back!

I love staying at this hotel! It is in the jungle and on the beach with no "boom-boom" music blasting, just the sounds of nature and the waves crashing on the shore. The staff are super friendly and accommodating. The yoga classes in the yoga shala are top-notch!

This my second time in my entire life to write a review. This place was the worst place I’ve ever stayed in. the pictures and description on Expedia don’t match the room. We were given a room with an outdoor shower and a bathroom and there was three men who were in our backyard right before my wife was about to take a shower When I brought this up to the management. They dismissed me and told me that they don’t know who those men were after three hours they found out that it was maintenance, but I we never got a heads up. The pool was not working. The shower is weak. The tent that we stayed in was not clean. Our bed was right under the ac unit. Due to condensation we were not able to sleep bc the ac unit kept dripping on our bed. Huge privacy concern…. Huge safety concerns….. bad customer service….. stay away

Certainly a glamping experience. However not the safest steps in property and “room” quite slippery with little support. They have glass shampoo bottles and conditioners which is understandable however again not the safest one of them broke right on my foot on the outdoor shower. Beautiful overall. The mosquitos will eat you up make sure you bring bug spray. Quite pricey but the view is remarkable and the experience is worth it. Glad we did it but I wouldn’t return in the future. It’s a one and done experience

My stay at Ikal was phenomenal. I was looking for an opportunity to enjoy a wellness experience and they delivered. The room was just as advertised and they had a wonderful schedule of activities. The location in the national park gave us access to several beach clubs and restaurants along the beach so I could really explore the area. The staff was amazing, super communicative and accommodated our needs/addressed any questions. Would definitely return during peak season or visit their sister property on my next trip.

This is a VERY unique property and you can expect to have a totally iconic experience here. It’s not for everyone, but I loved it! You definitely need a love of nature! The rooms are cabins of all sort with outdoor private POOLS, bathrooms, sinks and toilets fenced in their own private spaces with trees, sand and sun! The cabins are air conditioned! You can leave your cabin ‘area’ and walk down to the beach to find loungers and an open air restaurant and bar. There are open-air trams that are free to ride that run outside the hotel to take you to other parts of the park for sight seeing too.
