306 Amena 1BR Penthouse w/ Gym & private Pool/Rooftop Overview
First Impressions
Walking into 306 Amena 1BR Penthouse w/ Gym & private Pool/Rooftop, you immediately get that “wait, this is actually mine for the week?” feeling. The space feels more like a friend’s incredibly well-appointed apartment than a typical hotel room — which makes sense, because it’s essentially a private penthouse in one of Tulum’s four-star residential developments. The modern Mexican design hits just right, with clean lines and natural materials that don’t try too hard to scream “jungle chic” like some places around here do.
The Space and Amenities
Here’s what sold me: you’ve got an entire one-bedroom penthouse to yourself, complete with a private rooftop pool that honestly makes you feel a bit ridiculous in the best way possible. I mean, how often do you get to have morning coffee while floating in your own pool overlooking Tulum? The gym access is actually useful too — not some cramped afterthought with two broken machines, but proper equipment that couples seem to appreciate for morning workouts together. The kitchen is fully equipped, which matters more than you’d think when you want to grab groceries from the local markets and make breakfast without paying resort prices.
Location Perks
The location in Palenque puts you in this sweet spot where you’re close enough to Tulum’s action but far enough away that you’re not dealing with the chaos of the hotel zone every single day. You can actually bike to the beach clubs and cenotes pretty easily — I’d say it’s about a 10-minute ride to most of the spots you’ll want to hit. What I really appreciated was being able to walk to local restaurants where the prices don’t make your eyes water, you know what I mean? Plus, recent guests have been raving about the area, and honestly, I get why couples rate this place so highly for romantic trips.
The Rooftop Experience
Let’s talk about that rooftop for a second, because it’s really the star of the show here. The private pool isn’t huge — maybe four or five strokes across — but it’s perfectly sized for cooling off and watching the sunset with a drink in hand. The setup feels intimate without being cramped, and there’s enough space to actually hang out up there during the day. I spent way more time on that rooftop than I planned to, honestly. It’s one of those spaces where you find yourself taking photos not for social media, but because you actually want to remember how good this felt.
Why Guests Love It
This place works because it gives you the privacy and space of a vacation rental with the reliability and service of a four-star property. Couples especially seem to love having their own little world here — the private pool means you can be as ridiculous or romantic as you want without worrying about other guests. The 8.7 rating makes sense when you experience how the whole setup just flows naturally, from the well-designed interior to that incredible rooftop. It’s the kind of place where you actually relax instead of constantly planning your next move, which is sort of the whole point of Tulum, isn’t it?
Hotel in Tulum reservations spike during turtle nesting season when dawn snorkeling tours fill up fast.

Wishfulthinker89 from United States (8/10)
The space was ample, the bed was comfortable, and we loved the common pool and the lush scenery around the pool. The concierge, Cesar, is very thoughtful and quick to respond. Good value for what we paid. Plenty of parking and safe area. I would come back, depending upon the improvements they are willing to make (see below).

Réservation de dernière minute, après avoir vadrouillé 10 jours dans le Yucatan. je recherchais pour ma fille ado et moi, un établissement sécurisé au calme pas loin du centre de Tulum (15-20 min à pied du centre). J’ai vu juste avec Amena, une belle surprise. L’appartement est au dernier étage avec une chambre et une terrasse (rooftop + piscine privée) accessible depuis le balcon de l’appart). Nous n’avons pas été déçue de voir cet appartement élégant, fonctionnel dans une résidence charmante et sécurisée. Une belle et grande piscine commune est entourée de palmiers et de grandes plantes ! La végétation est luxuriante 😉 cela donne de la fraîcheur. Les parties communes sont décorées et entretenues avec soin (malgré la pluie le vent, certains jours!) Il ne manque rien dans l’appartement, la cuisine est très fonctionnelle (2 grandes bouteilles d’eau d’accueil déjà au frais). Le vrai frigo/congélateur est un vrai plus ! Nous avons aimé la grande table du salon et ses chaises, le must un canapé d’angle convertible, qu’on laissait ouvert le soir devant nos films Netflix ! (Grande TV HD). J’ai bien aimé la porte coulissante de la chambre qui donne sur le salon, on peut également accéder à la chambre depuis couloir de l’entrée. Belle salle de bain, grande douche à l’italienne. Mention spéciale aux hôtes Eve et Lean qui ont été gentils et disponibles sur whats app du début jusqu’à la fin du séjour. Leurs tips (soirées, activités, location…) sont envoyés également par whats app (ils ont tout compris ! C’est le meilleur moyen de communiquer avec les locataires). Je ne terminerai pas mon commentaire sans parler du personnel de la résidence, ils sont aux petits soins, ils sont toujours présents pour nous aider (merci Jésus !). Je reviendrais sans aucun doute et nous prendrons le plus grand appartement de la résidence et sa grande piscine 😉
