Radhoo Tulum

Radhoo Tulum Overview

First Impressions

When I first pulled up to Radhoo Tulum, honestly, I wasn’t sure what to expect — the jungle road leading here feels like you’re driving into nowhere. But then you arrive at this four-star gem tucked right into the coastal vegetation, and it all makes sense. The property sits at kilometer 8.7 on the Tulum-Boca Paila road, which puts you in that sweet spot where you’re close enough to Tulum‘s action but far enough out to feel like you’ve escaped everything.

The Perfect Beach Strip Location

You know what really struck me about this place? It’s positioned on what locals consider the best stretch of Tulum’s hotel zone — not too crowded like the areas closer to the ruins, but not so remote that you feel isolated. The beach access here is actually pristine, and I mean that. During my stay, I noticed couples everywhere (apparently they rate this spot 9.4 for romantic getaways, and I can see why). The sound of waves is constant but never overwhelming, and there’s this perfect balance of privacy and accessibility that’s hard to find along this coast.

Accommodations That Get It Right

My room had this understated elegance — think natural materials, plenty of space, and those little touches that show someone actually thought about how you’d live in the space. The design feels authentically Mexican without being kitschy, which is refreshing after seeing so many places that try too hard. What I really appreciated was how well-maintained everything felt; you can tell they take care of this property. The beds are genuinely comfortable (not always a given in beach hotels), and the bathrooms have good water pressure — small things that matter when you’re trying to rinse off sand and salt.

Practical Perks

Here’s something I didn’t expect — the breakfast situation is actually well thought out. They do continental style, but they also offer breakfast to go, which is perfect when you want to catch sunrise on the beach or head out early for cenote exploring. The free private parking is honestly a godsend; anyone who’s tried to park along this strip knows what a relief that is. I also noticed they seem to understand that people come here to disconnect — the wifi works when you need it, but the whole vibe encourages you to put your phone down.

Why Guests Love It

After spending time here, I get why this place scores so consistently high with visitors. It’s not trying to be the flashiest hotel on the beach, but it delivers on the things that actually matter — location, comfort, and that intangible feeling that you’re experiencing the real Tulum. The staff genuinely seems to care about your experience, and there’s this relaxed energy that makes it easy to settle in. Whether you’re here for romance, adventure, or just to decompress, Radhoo Tulum gives you a solid base without any of the pretension you sometimes find in this area.

Reviews of Radhoo Tulum

• Farisa from Trinidad and Tobago (10/10)

  The staff was friendly, warm, hospitable and very helpful. The room was comfortable and clean. The food was delicious both at the hotel and their nearby restaurant NU. Our stay was great overall.

• Natalia from Cyprus (10/10)

  The location is 10/10 even though they are providing guests with bicycles for free every day upon request (some other hotels are charging them). The cleanliness has exceeded our expectations – at moments you don't even remember that you're in the middle of the jungle! The breakfast is very nice (the granola is YUM) and it is served a la carte (I believe all breakfasts in Tulum are served a la carte to be honest). The staff members are super helpful and kind and we were chatting with them via Whatsapp during our whole stay for whatever we needed. The best thing is that we were allowed to use the beach area with sun beds and towels at the hotels across the road (Encantada, Nest etc) as they are all under the same umbrella!

• Nassim from Germany (10/10)

  Style, Location, Staff, Food, it’s super clean and relaxed

• Dinuk from United Kingdom (9/10)

  The staff were incredible. They helped us with anything and everything and were so quick to respond throughout. We’d like to especially mention Alejandra who went above and beyond in the service that she provided us. The location was excellent too and away from the noise but also close enough to all the restaurants and beach clubs. We also loved that we could access a bunch of other places owned by the same group (Nest, Encantada etc)

• Annabelle from United Kingdom (10/10)

  STUNNING hotel – a real oasis which marked the end of our honeymoon. The pool is beautiful and the perfect place to relax, the staff did everything they could to make our stay really special and the food and drinks were delicious. The rooms are also beautiful

• Brodie from United Kingdom (10/10)

  Stunning hotel set back in the jungle. Staff were super helpful and attentive the entire time we were there and the sister hotels give great access to the beach.

• Gilad from United States (10/10)

  Absolutely exceptional. Beautiful property, stunning pool, spacious rooms, excellent breakfast, and OUTSTANDING service. I wouldn't want to stay at any other hotel in Tulum Beach area.

• Daniel from United Kingdom (10/10)

  The property is amazing, it’s just down the end of the main strip and offers excellent beach access as well. The room was clean and perfect, it looked out onto the pool. The staff are extremely friendly and go the extra mile to make your stay the best it can be.

• Aelitha from United States (9/10)

  We had a great stay at Radhoo! The property is beautiful, there is a strong jungle vibe which we got even without staying in the upper rooms. The boardwalk to the bungalows through palm, the abundance of greenery – I mean, Tulum is very green overall, but Radhoo even more so. It is also pretty quiet, even on the nights when there are parties. Perfect location on my opinion – equally removed from all party places (but all of them are easily walkable), but not too far down the road. The room was spacious, with double vanity in the bathroom and enough storage. Bed was comfortable. No insects or anything inside the bungalow. The breakfast included in the rate was good too in my opinion, very filling and with decent variety, and also some add-on options for a reasonable extra fee. As many reviewers mentioned, the access to the beach is provided through the Encantada hotel across the road, which is literally 5 steps. This is a sister property and they share some of the staff it seems. Now, about the staff – people really are the main treasure of this place. They are terrific. Attentive, quick, helpful, and just nice and welcoming. I understand that hospitality is their job, and the guys are good at that, and I really felt it.
