"Absolutely loved La Valise Tulum! The vibe is relaxed and bohemian. Perfect if you're looking to unwind and disconnect. The wellness activities (yoga, meditation) were amazing. Food options were great with lots of fresh, local ingredients."

"We just got back from a 4-night stay at La Valise and it completely lived up to the hype. We stayed in one of the jungle-side suites, which felt incredibly private and peaceful. It’s tucked away enough to feel secluded, but still close to everything. The design is beautiful without feeling overdone — relaxed, refined, and very Tulum in the best way. Breakfast each morning was a highlight. The food was consistently great, and the views overlooking the beach made it even better. It never felt crowded — there was always a table ready and waiting. That was something we appreciated throughout the stay: whether it was by the pool or on the beachfront, there was always a sunbed available. It’s one of those rare properties where it feels like they intentionally designed the space to have more room than guests. You could always find a comfortable, quiet place to hang out without competing for space. The service across the board was fantastic — warm, attentive, and genuinely accommodating. They were especially thoughtful and flexible throughout our stay, which made everything feel easy. The location is also ideal. Within about a 15-minute walk, you’re surrounded by tons of great restaurants, day clubs, and nightlife. We opted to walk most nights just to take in the views and the energy of the hotel zone, which ended up being one of our favorite parts of the trip. We used the complimentary bikes one afternoon, which was a fun way to cruise around. The cocktails at the bar were excellent — easily some of the best we had all trip. We booked two massages at their spa and both were outstanding. We also had a fantastic dinner at NU — truly memorable. The concierge team handled our airport transfers seamlessly and arranged a private cenote tour for us, which ended up being a highlight. La Valise has that rare balance of feeling intimate but not cramped, luxurious but not pretentious. We left relaxed and already talking about coming back."

"We stayed at La Valise Tulum for 5 nights at the Cenote Master room and had the most unforgettable experience. From the moment we arrived, the property-whether on the jungle side or the beach side-felt like stepping into a dream. Every detail, from the lush greenery to the carefully curated design, created an intimate, tranquil atmosphere. Mornings were pure magic. We'd sip fresh green juice and rich coffee while watching the sun rise over the ocean or next to the pool. The Breakfast was always a highlight-fresh fruit, pastries, and perfectly prepared dishes that tasted so good. The pools were romantic, secluded, and just as stunning at night as during the day. The private beach was equally special-quiet, with soft golden sand and shaded palapas perfect for lazy afternoons. It felt like our own private slice of paradise. The hotel staff and concierge were exceptional-warm, attentive, and genuinely invested in making our stay incredible. From arranging activities, restaurant reservations to offering local tips and tricks, they made us feel completely at home, and by the end of the week they felt like good friends that it was hard to say goodbye. We also treated ourselves to the spa, which was top-notch in every way-soothing ambiance, skilled therapists, and a deep sense of relaxation that stayed with us long after. La Valise is the kind of place you never want to leave, and we already know we'll be returning many times. It's a hidden gem that we'll be telling all our friends and family about!"

"A Magical Stay at La Valise Resort – Pure Perfection! From the moment we arrived at La Valise Resort to the (very sad) moment we left, everything was absolutely perfect. The setting is a dream — nestled in an authentic and vibrant street filled with charming restaurants, shops, and lush greenery that makes you feel like you’ve stepped into paradise. We had both a beachfront room and a jungle-side room, and each one had its own unique magic. Both were beautifully designed, extremely comfortable, and offered the perfect mix of luxury and tranquility. A special thank you to Letty and the incredible concierge team — their attention to detail and genuine care made our stay seamless. I highly recommend letting them assist with any arrangements; they truly make everything effortless and perfect. Carlos, Eddie, and all the servers made us feel as though we were the only visitors at the resort. They were incredibly attentive and also brought fun energy to every meal and interaction. The spa experience was unforgettable — Lorena and Nuri gave some of the best massages we’ve ever had. So relaxing and restorative. And then there’s Nu Restaurant… no surprise it holds Michelin recognition. Over the course of the week, we tasted nearly everything on the menu, and each dish was outstanding. Choosing a favorite is impossible — every bite was extraordinary. La Valise isn’t just a resort, it’s an experience. One we can’t wait to relive."

"La Valise was the final stop on our Tulum getaway, and it couldn’t have been a more perfect way to end the trip. We were warmly welcomed by the friendly front-of-house team, and as we sipped our welcome cocktails, we were given a short tour of the property. The location is truly breathtaking—from the moment you walk through the lush gardens and into the heart of the main beachside area of the hotel, the first glimpse of the sea is absolutely staggering. Dining with that view, whether for breakfast, lunch, or dinner, is a memory we’ll cherish for a long time. Our room was on the beach side, tucked within the gardens. We loved it—especially the private plunge pool and the super comfortable bed. The ceiling fans were also a big plus for us; we’ve always preferred them to air conditioning (though the room had both). One evening, we were even treated to a surprise visit from the three raccoons we’d enjoyed watching during our stay at Radhoo! They popped by, peeped through the sliding doors window, and then scurried off into the night. Food and drinks were excellent—high-quality and beautifully presented throughout. La Valise delivers exceptional service across the board. The staff were warm, attentive, and genuinely lovely, always going the extra mile. The waiters worked incredibly hard, especially in the heat, but always seemed happy to be there and took fantastic care of us. The management and front-of-house team couldn’t do enough to help. As we were celebrating our anniversary during our stay, we received a beautiful card and gift with such kind words—it was a thoughtful gesture that really made us feel special. We shared some fun conversations with the team, and by the time we left, it felt like we were saying goodbye to new friends. It wouldn’t be fair to single any one of the waiting staff out, as the whole team was so friendly. However we would make special mention of the concierge team - Angela, Elias, Alan, Jorge, Manuel and Selzin. One of the standout features of La Valise is its split between the beachfront and jungle sides. The jungle pool area is absolutely gorgeous, with a laid-back bar and a tranquil atmosphere that makes it feel like a hidden oasis. It’s the perfect balance of beach and nature. La Valise is what we’d describe as ‘luxury boho’—thoughtful design, a serene atmosphere, and faultless service, all with its own unique magic. We couldn’t recommend it more highly."

"Where do I even start? I have traveled all over the world and I must say Tulum has my heart. We spent our trip at La Valise and when I say the service, grounds, location, and staff were absolutely amazing. I cannot stress this enough. Josephine and Emily welcomed us with the friendliness and helpful service we have ever experienced. They helped us with everything we needed, checked in with us if we needed breakfast or help with luggage or a taxi. They really made our trip so special. We fell truly cared about and we thank them and love them so much! Thank you J and E! The food at the hotel and nearby restaurants associated with the hotel is the best food we have ever had on vacation. We couldn't stop eating! The hotel atmosphere is truly unique and majestic. This is a perfect location for a secluded romantic getaway or a tranquil Getaway. We will definitely be back!"

"We went here for our honeymoon. We had signature suit with jungle view with rolling bed. The room was absolutely amazing. Super nice, quite and we had breathtaking jungle view. Our staying was living in a dream. Staff was so helpful and friendly. They helped us with restaurant recommendations and even for booking and arranging. Also now I am big fun of small luxury hotel groups, it has quality vibes. There were very few guests staying and we really enjoyed serenity and calmness of the place. Meal portions were little bit small. For example avocado toast comes with just one piece of small bread."

"Translate with Google Serían 5 estrellas sin el baño en el exterior Hotel en un destino de moda, en una zona llena de restaurantes y tiendas de ropa. Tiene dos áreas: una que da a unos jardines y piscina y otra a la playa. Los huéspedes pueden usar ambas independientemente de dónde se encuentre su habitación. Estas son espaciosas y cómodas. La nuestra tenía el baño en el exterior, en una especie de patio, por lo que la ducha estaba al aire libre (sin acceso desde la calle, a salvo de miradas), lo que no acabó de convencernos. Además disponíamos de una bañera con hidromasaje y un solárium en la planta de arriba. El desayuno es muy bueno y con posibilidades de elección a la carta y el restaurante igual. El acceso directo a la playa es una gozada, y nunca he estado en una con tanta actividad animal. ¡Hasta asistimos en directo al nacimiento de docenas de tortugas y su camino al mar! Aunque su final no fue muy feliz, con las aves que estaban atentas a la eclosión."

"L emplacement est super , au calme , très belle décoration , chambre sublime, spacieuse et surtout le lit qui sort c'est une expérience incroyable"

"I've stayed at several hotels in Tulum and La Valise Tulum is by far my favorite. Great mix of luxury and authentic Mexican charm. The sustainable practices they have in place are impressive. Beach is kept clean and the water is perfect for swimming."
