Situated in Tulum, 3.1 km from Tulum Archeological Site, Mimosa Tulum features accommodation with an outdoor swimming pool, free private parking, a garden and a terrace. With a bar, the 4-star hostel has air-conditioned rooms with free WiFi. The property is 1.1 km from Tulum Bus station, and within 1.1 km of the city centre. The whole property is beautifully designed and well taken care of. We travelled for 4 weeks all over Mexico and Mimosa was by far the best hotel we stayed in. Especially the welcoming staff made us feel truly welcomed like we were at home. So if you need to recharge your batteries and have at the same time all the opportunities to discover all the wonderful things around tulum, this is a very good spot to do so. Here are some highlights: + Beautiful tepee + Quiet nights to sleep well + Wonderful drinks at the bar and the 2 for 1 deal is a must do :) + Meeting nice people in a relaxing surrounding + Welcoming staff that are more than just workers + Fun and interesting talks with guests and staff + Easy bike rental + Best food trucks in Tulum are just 2 minutes away in walking distance + Good location to start trips to Cenotes (e.g. Calavera), Tulum ruins and beach and music festivals (e.g. Day Zero) Looking forward to coming back and seeing again Jimmy and all the nice staff!

The property is located 3.4 km from Church of Guadalupe, 46 km from Xel Ha and 32 km from Kantenah Bay. The accommodation offers a shared kitchen, a 24-hour front desk and organising tours for guests. I just went there to sleep, cause I arrived late and woke up early, and especially liked the fact that there is someone 24h/7 at the reception to welcome us. The beds are cute and, even if in a commun area, each one is private with its curtain. Loved the place, pretty spacious !
