We celebrated our 25th anniversary with a seven day trip to Tulum. The Alaya was a great place to stay. The staff is courteous and friendly. The rooms are spacious and well maintained. The location is quiet but within walking distance of amenities. We enjoyed our stay and highly recommend this hotel.

Excellent service and gorgeous location. They set us up with bikes for easy transportation, helped us book a return car to the airport, and also had breakfast and took our order the night before so we can have it quickly in the AM because we were leaving early. Great service!

The room was wonderful. We were upgraded upon arrival to an ocean view. Many amenities are at neighboring hotels, but if you are looking for quiet and low key, this is perfect. The fun, noisy places are steps away down the street. The front desk was very helpful. Especially Paola who gave us amazing recommendations for places to go and excursions that were off the beaten path. The air conditioning was a bit weak is the only complaint.

Ocean front room was perfection! Watching the sun rise over the ocean from bed, having breakfast served on the patio while watching the waves, listening to the sounds of the surf while drifting off to sleep all made the trip magical! All the staff were lovely, food and drinks were delicious and perfect location on the beach! Highly recommend for anyone looking to relax.
