The Yucatan was itself enough but to have such a peaceful and comfortable place to stay each night made it the most memorable vacation my girlfriend and I have ever had. The Inn is located off of the main road in Tulum and is within walking distance to food, bars, and shops. The room was always clean and comfortable and our housekeeper (Jesus) was truly charming with his amazing towel creations (see some of the sample pictures posted by others). Although you don't get a beach front view since it's located in town, this seems to give Posada Luna del Sur a more endearing persona. You're in the midst of Tulum and its local residents which, if you have an open mind, allows a more intimate experience with the town and its history. Even so, all the rooms seem to have access to the Inn's quaint courtyard, where the Inn keeper's have colorful plants and garden decorations (perfect for a lazy evening on your room's outside patio). Speaking of the Inn's owners, their should be pictures of Jack and Janet next to standard definitions of gracious and hospitable. They were not only extremely helpful in outlining where the best places to eat, drink, dance, and simply lay on the beach, they genuinely care for all their guests and treat you as if you were friends or family.
If you're adventurous and want a great guide to the area's vast and diverse ecosystem, Jack and Janet can introduce you to Manuel Galindo. This gentleman is both funny and extremely knowledgeable in everything you could possibly want to know about the Yucatan's environment. He will pick you up and give you a great personal (or small group) tour which includes snorkeling in lagoons and private cenotes (flooded caves).
There's not enough space in this review to fully describe how happy we were to stay at Posada Luna del Sur and how much it added to our experience in Tulum.
Thanks Jack and Janet!
Huu and Elizabeth.
