I genuinely had an unforgettable experience at this place thanks to the incredible staff. They are willing to help with absolutely everything and go above and beyond to make you feel like family and have an amazing time. The vibes are incredible, the room is spotlessly clean, the space is well taken care of, fantastic activities and tours too. Special shoutouts to Emmanuel, Salvador, Andres, Brian, Sandy Gomez, and above all Ignacio for their kindness and hospitality! Would go back again and again and recommend to my friends!!

It’s nice for what it is. The rooms aren’t air conditioned and my towel disappeared multiple times. I think it’s well run and a good pace to meet people.

This hotel was in a great location and also was close to the beach. The staff were especially pleasant and quick to assist. The music at night was loud and was the only downside to my stay, otherwise it was good!

The vibe at Mayan Monkey Tulum was definitely boho. I loved how clean, spacious and modern the king sized room was. The amenities were fantastic for a vacation while also providing spaces for connecting when need be. I also loved the proximity to everything by bike, walking and for tours.

I felt welcomed and at home at this hostel, even though I only stayed for a week. The staff were friendly and helpful, and they always worked very hard. Every day and night there was some fun event to attend, whether it was music, trivia, dancing, or trips to the cenotes. I was sad to leave and I look forward to returning!

Great vibes

Awesome fun vibes, comfy beds, quiet enough, great club and music and free breakfast was awesome. Shared kitchen was handy but way too small for that many people and not near enough utensils. There should be 3 kitchens for that many people. Good value

Beautiful solo room that felt more like a hotel, but plenty of opportunities to make friends at the pool and bar. Some games and events at the bar to make friends. Restaurants nearby. Nightlife you do need cabs mostly. Bathroom was nicer than mine at home! Enjoyed my time. Would consider other Mayan Monkeys.

The staff was wonderful. The property seems to be well kept. Breakfast was terrible. But it’s loud, like techno music at 1230 in the morning loud. The crowd is very young. I’d recommend this place anyone UNDER 30.
Verified review

10/10 Exceptional

I absolutely loved staying at this "hostel" which honestly is like the glamping of hostels. The staff was incredibly nice, helpful and knowledgeable of everything to do in Tulum, other towns, and the hostel itself. The noise from the parties wasn't overwhelming and they always finished right on time. The beds were comfortable and clean. I had a medical emergency in the middle of the night and Lorenzo, the security man and Salvador, at the reception, helped me so much. I felt incredibly safe and accompanied the entire time. I am still so grateful to them for what they did and the fact that they kept checking up on me. You can walk many places and take the local Colectivo to the hotel zone. You walk downtown and it's super safe! I really enjoyed staying here, highly recommend it.

I had a lovely stay at Mayan Monkey Tulum! The breakfast was generous, fresh and always delicious, which was such a great way to start each day. The reception staff were incredibly friendly and helpful throughout my stay. I’d especially like to thank Emmanuel, who kindly moved me to a quieter room when I asked – I really appreciated the care and quick response. As expected from a hostel, there’s a lively atmosphere with music and a DJ in the evenings (usually until midnight), but it was never a problem for me. It’s all part of the fun vibe, and the bar staff were always smiling and welcoming. What stood out to me most was how personal the experience felt. I was only there for five nights, but many of the staff remembered my name and even my breakfast order – a small gesture that made a big impact. They also offered free guacamole and margarita classes, which were a fun bonus. My private room genuinely felt more like a hotel than a hostel – clean, stylish, and comfortable. I was pleasantly surprised by the quality of the accommodation. The location is central, and they offer bike rentals and paid excursions, which makes exploring Tulum really easy. I would absolutely recommend Mayan Monkey to anyone visiting Tulum – whether you’re looking to meet new people or just enjoy a few days in a vibrant and welcoming space.

First off I will never stay in Tulum, Mexico again!! The federali police are everywhere!! You can’t even enjoy the beach in peace! The hostel is about 40 minutes away from the airport. Ride the bus its alot cheaper than a taxi or anything else! The bus is about $12 compared to the $50-$60 the taxis will try to charge you. You will catch the bus into town then catch a taxi from the bus station to the hostel which will be about another $12. The hostel has so many steps to climb with no elevators! I hated it! It is NOT disabled friendly! So if you have issues with walking I wouldn’t do it! I had to carry my luggage up and down leaving and coming. An absolute nightmare! I rented a scooter for a couple days to get around. They have tons of rental places to choose from so choose wisely! The beaches are far so you will need some form of transportation. But the beaches suck right now because they stink really bad because of the seaweed. They say this time of the year its like that. People will try to cheat you out your money if you don’t understand spanish or pesos so be aware! The hostel is mostly for a younger crowd. Book at your own risk! It is really clean! The housekeepers are wonderful!

Great Hostel and Great People, Skip the tours.

Stayed for 3 nights in a 12 bed dorm which has it's own bathroom with two toilets, showers, and sinks. The dorms also have a locker for each bed (make sure to bring smaller than average lock). I forgot to pack a lock and the front desk had them available for 7 USD. The staff all spoke English so if your spanish is a little underdeveloped you will be okay. The rooftop pool and bar area is nice, in the evening there are djs. Be warned you will be able to hear it from your room and it goes until 1am so if you are a light sleeper and not much of a partyer it might bother you. First morning I took part of the Cenote tour that the hostel offers. The comman space inside is large and comfortable. The volunteer guide walked us to the closest supermarket so we could get ourselves snacks, drinks, or pesos of needed, then walked us to the collectivo stop to then go to the Cenote location which has 3 stalactite cave cenotes, one you can repell down a rope into. If you're familiar with collectivos and speak even a little bit of Spanish you're better off checking out cenotes yourself, but it was a good way to meet some people at the hostels. I do not recommend the chichen itza tour the hostel offers, look up 13 Baktum tours to see the negative reviews. You're better off going with a different company or arranging your own transport to chichen itza. Try to arrange yourself at least 3 hours in the park to be able to see and appreciate all the ruins without rushing through.
