Conrad Tulum Riviera Maya

Laura and Dalia were so wonderful. My husband and I had a couples massage and left feeling so relaxed. All of the staff were so helpful. We had an A++ experience

My sone and his cousins had a really fun time at the kids club every day!! The staff there were so wonderful!

Amazing experience for our family of four. Staff are the best and the kids club was amazing. Will be back next year!!

Our 4th stay at Conrad Tulum was nothing short of incredible—an easy 5 stars across the board. From the moment we arrived, the staff made it clear that this place is truly special. Every single person—from the butlers to the bartenders, restaurant servers, and housekeeping—went above and beyond to make us feel welcome, comfortable, and genuinely cared for. The food and drinks were consistently excellent and very reasonably priced, especially for a resort of this caliber. Every restaurant delivered, Autor(Michelin Star), Ultra mar bar and the breakfast experience are next level—absolutely exceptional (and even better if you book through AmEx and get it included). We were especially blown away by some standout team members who made our trip unforgettable. Emmanuel at Autor was a phenomenal waiter—he took such thoughtful care of us and our baby boy, and somehow always had a special surprise waiting each time we dined there. Yobani at breakfast treated us like family and even gave us a handwritten letter on our last day, which meant so much. Daniel, our butler, was incredibly kind and thoughtful. He gave our son a brand-new toy truck (which he still plays with!) and even hand-painted a beach rock personalized for our family—such a meaningful touch. Sergio kept our room absolutely spotless every day; it was always sparkling when we returned. The beach experience was just as amazing. Gerardo took fantastic care of us right on the sand and served some of the best drinks we had all trip. Jorge and Jesus were also exceptional, always attentive whether we were at the pool or beach. Speaking of drinks—the beach bar (ultra mar - yes, the one from the Hilton commercial) is stunning. I found myself there most nights enjoying the live music and the incredible atmosphere. The bartenders made it even more special. The Jefe (I can’t remember his name right now but it started with a G, maybe Gigorgano?) and Abraham treated me like family and introduced me to a variety of Mexican spirits I’d never tried before. It was such a fun and memorable experience. They were very knowledgeable and provided nice pours all night. Very fun! The beaches themselves are immaculate, with crystal-clear, calm water in a beautiful private cove. The gym is well-equipped, and every corner of the resort feels thoughtfully designed and maintained. There are so many wonderful people I’m probably forgetting to mention, but that just speaks to how consistently amazing the entire team is. This is hands down our favorite resort in Mexico—we’re already looking forward to coming back. Could not recommend it more!

From the check in to the check out we got an unbelievable experience. All the personnel very kind and attentive special our concierge Mijael. 5 stars to Autor. The

First the good things. Beautifully designed clean hotel on a lovely scenic bay. Rooms on top floors have great views. Staff are lovely. The bad things. Lots of seaweed when we were there. They do a huge job trying to clean it but it’s a loosing battle and you spend the mornings listening to the sound of tractors on the beach. Food in the Asian and Mediterranean restaurants definitely well below standard. Small portions and looks and tastes like something out of a microwave packet. Very disappointing experience. Lunch by the pool was good if only they opened their lunch restaurants in the evening but it is too far from anywhere to dine out. Even the standard of room service was uneven.

Property seems dirty and worn for a 5 star resort

Such a beautiful property with the most amazing employees. Everyone is so kind and attentive, the property is pristine and the amenities are great! There are ample chairs at the pool or beach to lounge at. They also offer lots of different workout classes - I took yoga and a spin class with Juan which were both fantastic. The spa was also next level. They ask you to come an hour before your treatment for a series of pools and plunges, definitely worth it. The kids club is great, our child is normally shy and would prefer to stay with us but ended up making friends and requesting to go to the kids club everyday. Would definitely recommend and definitely come back.

We were told upon arrival that a private event bought out the hotel after our final day. This would be absolutely no issue except they started to drain the beautiful pool at the heart of the property. We are currently day two of our six day trip and it has been filled with sounds of hammering and giant mess to look at. They offered zero compensation for completely ruining the tranquil vibe I can only imagine the resort would have had. If someone wants to buy out a resort that’s fine, but don’t let the preparations spoil the vacation of the current paying guests.

Returning from vacation, we found ourselves unusually reflective in composing this review. The resort itself is undeniably beautiful and lives up to its luxury positioning. From the seamless hotel arranged transportation to the moment we arrived at our room, the service was polished and attentive. (For context, we flew into Cancun to take advantage of non-stop flights- the transfer to the resort is approximately 1–1.5 hours depending on traffic.) Our accommodations in Building 5 were exceptional—spotless, well-appointed, and offering a stunning view. My husband noted it was his favorite room across all our travels. Cart transportation is available from all the buildings. We found the ocean-side walk is quite pleasant and short also. For those seeking a quieter stay, we recommend requesting a building further from the main areas, as we did. Despite the presence of seasonal seaweed, the staff worked diligently each day to maintain the beach and preserve the guest experience. Service during the first part of our stay was excellent. Taina at Arbolea provided thoughtful breakfast recommendations, and our server at Autor (whose name we unfortunately did not catch) guided us to outstanding menu selections. Daniel and Vanessa, our pool cabana concierges, went above and beyond to make my birthday celebration special and ensure we enjoyed our days at the pool. We also appreciated the attentive pool food & drink service from Sebastian and Jorge, the detailed room care and birthday decorations from Eisi, and the service from Gustavo at Maratea. We were pleased to discover that the resort now offers daily activities - which many prior reviews said were not available. While not initially communicated, they can be accessed via the QR code on the bracelet. We particularly enjoyed the cultural experiences, including a workshop where we created a traditional Mexican doll to take home. We also visited the spa, which we would recommend. The treatments themselves were excellent. However, there was a scheduling mix-up that resulted in my husband and me being placed at different times. Additionally, my husband's hydrotherapy experience was fully guided step-by-step, whereas mine lacked the same level of instruction, which created some inconsistency. Toward the latter part of our seven-day stay, the level of service declined. Basic in-room items such as coffee cups and drinkware were not consistently replenished in-room, requiring follow-up requests. On multiple occasions, poolside orders did not arrive after extended waits, requiring us to visit the bar/restaurant ourselves to order. On my birthday, after requesting a dessert "to go" since I was full - I was told no. Seating at Arbolea was also inconsistent, as some guests seated themselves while others waited to be assigned tables, often limiting access to preferred outdoor seating to those individuals who followed instructions. While a multitude of pools - there are no pools designated adult-only. Sometimes, there was a lack of pool etiquette - On multiple occasions, a large, loud group disrupted the atmosphere (group of 14 allowed to rent 1 cabana, blocked an entire pool entrance, had speaker and play their own music at main pool). In an effort to avoid this, we reserved a more secluded cabana the following day, unfortunately that more secluded cabana resulted in a lot of afternoon sun. When we attempted to create shade using towels, we were asked to remove them as it did not align with the resort’s aesthetic, which was disappointing given the additional cost of the cabana and the lack of alternative solutions. To the staff’s credit, it appeared that the resort may have been understaffed during peak occupancy periods. Service levels were noticeably higher earlier in the week when the property was less busy. We booked this stay through an all-inclusive offer. Unfortunately, we felt that once this was identified, the level of service diminished despite our continued cash gratuities to the specific staff members. Additionally, items not included in the package were priced at a premium. For example, even with an all-inclusive discount, we paid approximately $150 USD additional for a mediocre steak at Maratea, and a low-tier bottle of wine through room service was priced at $145 USD. When considering the overall cost relative to the experience, the value did not align with expectations. Comparable or superior experiences could likely be found elsewhere at a similar or lower price point. In summary, while the property itself is beautiful and certain aspects of service were outstanding, inconsistencies—particularly later in our stay—impacted the overall experience.
