I recently stayed at the Kanan Tulum Hotel for 8 days. The property and rooms are very nice and gave a very unique experience. Joel at the front desk was the best from the first day greeting us to our last day checking out! I received 3 spa treatments, a master massage, the rejuvenating anti-aging facial and the cocoa wrap. They were all nice, but by far my favorite was the master massage with Laura. I cannot recommend it and Laura enough. Her energy is very calming and therapeutic and adds to the services she provides! We had dinner 1 evening up in a nest overlooking the ocean and that was a fantastic experience and dinner with Ricardo as our server! Totally recommend this as well!! Now the reason for only 4 stars. The service in the restaurant for breakfast by the beach as well as service on the beach was hit or miss. Many times I had to go up to the bar to order my own drinks or food. 1 day we were offered an umbrella from the sun, another day I asked for an umbrella and was told no, although when I brought up the fact I was provided 1 the day before they did bring and set up 1. We were upgraded to a partial ocean view room which was lovely! However the entire experience in the room and out in the beach was a little tainted by the competing clubs on both sides of the Kanan, along with the Kanan playing techno music all day every day. The music continued to 1am -2am every night, although I do believe this came from a neighbor club and not the Kanan itself.

Our room was fantastic and the beach was beautiful – these were the two best parts of our stay. The service at the hotel, the attitude of the staff, the food was all extremely disappointing. We came to celebrate my husband’s birthday and I had been in touch with concierge services for a month and a half with several small requests such as decorating the room, cake and music at our welcoming dinner, et cetera and they did nothing. For the first night I let it go thinking maybe it was a lack of communication but that seemed to be the theme of our entire stay-anything we asked for, anything I had pre-booked was just forgotten about and the worst part was the attitude of the staff when we tried to follow up or ask for anything- it honestly seemed like we were a constant bother to them . We asked for an airport shuttle and they quoted the price at US$170 saying that taxis would cost more, we got a taxi for $100 on the Street outside the hotel. We asked for their help in making reservations and they just forgot in both instances. We asked for ice to be sent up to our room and staff lied and said they had been waiting outside of our room and we told them to come back in 10 minutes. The food at the beach bar and the karma restaurant were also terrible, but but we learned our lesson after two terrible meals in good news is there are plenty of great places to eat nearby. Overall would come to Tulum again but would definitely not stay at this hotel.

Everything was very expensive! Creaky bed, leaky refrigerator in the room! I was still okay with everything above until the day we checked out. They told us to wait that they need to check the room before we left there! After while they said they’ll charge us $65 and I asked why. They said there is blood stain on the sheets. I couldn’t believe and asked if I go back to see it. Of course there wasn’t any blood stains

They experience at this property was absolutely horrible. I will never return again. I was constantly approached by drug dealers. I was even approached and physically assaulted by one of the men who was attempting to sell me drugs the staff allowed them onto the premises. I also experienced having room service left outside of the door, where in the middle of the night I could hear someone outside of the door eating the leftover food that was sitting there for well over a day. Needless to say the experience was horrendous and I will never go back.!!!

The property is stunning and the rooftop to the different nests is amazing! The view from the nest is unbelievable. Walkable to Hartwood, Casa Banana, Elios. Definitely this place is Instagram material but the downside is the room is outdated- the room needs serious updates for sure. The wooden in room tub is useless. We got a room with an ocean front view with balcony and we couldn’t enjoy the balcony as much as we wanted to. Wish they would’ve done more with the mosquitoes. For the price we payed per night, were expecting something more. Would not stay here again.
