VerdeAmar Eco Lodge Jungle Retreat

Delicious breakfast and dinner, both Carolina and Pepe are excellent cooks as well as gracious hosts.

It is hard to find and is off the radar of GPS routing. Maybe there could be a sign or two along the road or a clearer map included in the reservation confirmation. The owners had mentioned this in an email, but it would have been better to have a map to refer to.

Everything was great: the location, the facilities, the calmness and the hosts. Great breakfast and dinner too. Some reviews say that the road to the property is really rough but we had no issues accessing it with a small rental car, the directions provided were clear too

It was a new experience not having doors between the toilet and the room and not having sound-isolating windows, but we got used to it after a bit.

Amazing smoothie for breakfast. Good location in nature. Cleaned and confortable room. Relaxed athmosphere.

Slight lack of privacy given that the window of the room didnt close. Lack of AC.

Breakfast was delicious and filling. The dining room is a pleasant, open-air space that was cool and breezy and also homey. The rooms were beautiful, simple but well furnished and situated with mosquito netting over all doors and windows that was in good shape and allowed for a pleasant breeze and no bugs. It IS the jungle, though, so there are bugs around. We woke up gently to the sounds of birds. It is very quiet there. We only dipped our toes in the pool, but it was cool and refreshing to have nearby. The hosts were very friendly, relaxed, and accommodating. They really wanted you to be comfortable, have a good time, and enjoy the area around them and by the sea. VerdeAmar was a surprising little gem to find, I wish we had had more time to stay and enjoy it and the area.

The only surprise was the drive in - it is a ways inland on a very rough road. Excellent directions are provided to reach the hotel, but even with them, we questioned if we were going the right way as the road up to the hotel is very, very rustic. It was doable in a regular sedan, however, as long as we went slow and were cautious. Do not use Google Maps to find it!

+ Great jungle experience + Nice design of the garden, pool and breakfast area + friendliest hosts of our entire trip + tasty food (breakfast and dinner) + relaxing hammocks, day beds and deck chairs + ecological approach (natural products, waste sorting etc.)

- The rooms are quite small (-) there is not much privacy (no bathroom door, windows without glass), this bothered us not much but it might bother people that are not used to that

Everything was exceptional, except I would love to be aware before that it was deep in the jungle and the road is almost non-existent and no signs. I would not advise check-in in late, though I appreciate we were met and allowed to check-in very late in the night. The room is amazing, the territory of the lodge is so beautiful and well taken care of. We took breakfast 2 times and it was exceptional and really good value for money. Also the dogs <3 And the atmosphere is magical!! Stay longer! My partner was not a fan the first day, but at the end of the stay he fell in love with it <3 Thank you!

Very bad bumpy jungle road and no signs. Just be aware, it is still worth it. Not a place to be too noisy

I spend a week in this incredible place in the middle of the jungle. Perfect escape from noise and stress. Everything was perfect, Peppe and Caro, really make you feel home, they will take care of you like an old friends. Peppe I also a great cook, great selection for breakfast and it’s so nice having dinner at candle light with the sound of the nature. Caro does massages and I had one of the best in my life I wish I could stay longer, I wish to go back :)

everything was perfect

tasteful an relaxed ambience, the best massage I have ever gotten in a peaceful natural environment

a very calm property for those who want to relax and enjoy nature and lovely and friendly pets. the owners are professional and trying Pepe’s food is a must very delicious.

Beautiful and serine property away from the hustle of Tulum but close enough to explore all of the sights. Very well cared for and thoughtfully designed spaces. Amazing food! Pepe and Caro were wonderful hosts. Caro is a masseuse and I highly recommend booking a hour with her!

It was perfect.
