Posada Margherita

go for the amazing dining. Not only will you be eating right on the beach but the food is amazing. Plus, they give you foccacia bread as a starter and it was mouth-watering.

Mur Mur

go for good vibes. This place is in the middle of it all and the perfect location to grab a drink. You can try the many delicious drinks they offer while sitting on a swing at the bar. What more could you ask for?

Philosophy

go for the art. The restaurant is right on the beach and it is inside the resort called Casa Malca. The resort used to be Pablo Escobar's old mansion and the design of the resort is just stunning. Bring your camera, because every corner is picturesque and filled with artistic pieces. I would recommend going for breakfast and make sure to try out the pastries. Also, kind of weird suggestion, but go to the bathroom at the restaurant because the art and the whole design of it is super cool.

La Popular

go for the experience. I had dinner here while sitting on a pillow on the beach. This is something that I will never forget. The restaurant had incredible food but the ambiance and experience of it all was absolutely amazing. It is located at the Nomade Resort which is also incredibly stunning. Make sure you walk around the property as well and check out all the jungle-ness of it.

Gitano

go for the ambiance. This place is a hot spot, it is almost always packed and once you go there you can see why. The whole ambiance of the place gives you such jungle and boho vibes, it is mesmerizing. You could spend hours here and still not get enough of it. This place is good to grab drinks and meals with a bunch of your friends. Make sure to try the Mezcal.

experience

Cobá

I went to go see the Coba Ruins and they were amazing. You get to scroll through what used to be the town of Coba and see their version of a basketball court. At the end of the path, you get to the climb up the 120 steps to the top and get to see an incredible view. Make sure to wear sensible shoes because the climb is no joke and can be quite dangerous.

Cenote Tankach-Ha

I went to one near the Coba Ruins called Tamcach-Ha and it was the best way to cool off after the hike in Coba. Make sure you get there pretty early because most likely you will run into crowds. The cenotes were something out of a fairy tale. The water was the perfect temperature and it was a relaxing, magnificent feeling. Highly recommend visiting a cenote while in Tulum.

Casa Malca

Casa Malca is a must see. Not only had I mentioned it before under my dining recommendations, but this place is amazing to just go and see. It is a bit hard to find, I went by it a few times until I had to ask someone where it was <i>(no wonder it was Pablo Escobar's old mansion). </i>The security will not just let you walk around, so tell them that you would like to go to the restaurant. The great thing about Tulum, that surprised me a lot as well was the security. I felt safe everywhere I went and could walk around and not feel too concerned for my safety. The resort is filled with art pieces and an amazing front lobby, where I might have spent at least 30 minutes having a photo shoot. It was just too incredible. The beach area is also beautiful and made me want to spend the whole day here. Definite must see!

Papaya Playa Project

Go to Papaya Playa Project for the night of your life. Imagine dancing on a beach under the stars till the crack of dawn. That is what you will experience at the Papaya Playa Project. It is a night you will not forget, but it is pricey. You will have to pay a cover and depending on the night and theme, it will depend on how expensive it will be. Join their Facebook group to see the events that they have and you can even buy tickets online which will be cheaper than at the door.
