"Howlita Tulum is a little slice of paradise in the center of Tulum - indeed, the spacious rooms, beautiful landscaping, and peaceful atmosphere belie what one (fairly or unfairly) might expect from the surroundings."

“Howlita Tulum immediately struck me as a well-cared-for adults-only property with a serene atmosphere, emphasized by its modern thatched-roof cottages. The focus on fresh, healthy cuisine and a rooftop bar suggests a balanced approach to relaxation and socializing, while maintaining a boutique, intimate vibe. I think its location, near both Tulum's Mayan ruins and beaches, offers an appealing blend of culture and leisure.”
