Love Spaceships? Take a look at the new Secrets Tulum Resort & Beach Club.
It’s like if SHTF this resort will lift off – and blast you safely to Uranus.
Hopefully your vacation will not be interrupted by aliens…… So relax and enjoy Tulum’s great beaches, ancient Mayan ruins, and its hippie-boho eco-tourism vibe.
BTW, Tulum now has an airport, but airlines and flight routes are still somewhat limited. The good news is that the road from the Cancun airport has been upgraded, so if you fly into Cancun then your drive to Tulum will be much faster than in the past.
You might recall that Hyatt Inclusive Collection originally announced bringing a Breathless Tulum Resort & Spa to the area, however the resort has undergone a brand change and is now the Check PricesSecrets Tulum Resort & Beach Club.
When I think about Tulum there are several thoughts that come to mind – Mayan culture, a boho-chic vibe, and where the jungle meets the sea. This new resort checks all the boxes!
Note to Know: Although the Check PricesSecrets Tulum Resort & Beach Club is nestled in the mangroves of Tulum – think jungles, not beaches – they do have a separate and private full-service beach club offsite with regular transportation to and from, for those who need to feel the sand between their toes. If you prize being mere steps from the sand, this may not be the resort for you….but it’s perfect for all those “Tarzan” types who want a lush jungle experience.
Whether you’re a beach-lover or not, Secrets Tulum also offers an amazing pool experience at this intimate boutique resort, which has ~300 suites (including the always popular swim-up suites) and a five-bedroom “Secrets Beach Villa” – a private, all-inclusive vacation villa that includes its own rooftop with a plunge pool.
There’s also the Preferred Club, including upgraded suites, access to an exclusive lounge and special concierge service, among other amenities, and (amazingly for a resort of this size) the property includes 10 different dining concepts, ranging from a buffet to international a la carte eateries and a beach bar called Barracuda.
