Tulum's beach hotels straddle the Caribbean coastline, offering direct sand access, infinity pools, and spa facilities. Budgets range from $150 per night for eco-chic cabanas to $800+ for luxury all-inclusive resorts like Hilton Tulum Riviera Maya or Conrad Tulum. Most properties cluster along the Hotel Zone (Zona Hotelera), a 10-km strip of beachfront stretching north from the Tulum ruins. Expect limited street parking, so book airport shuttles or rental bikes. Many hotels enforce minimum-stay policies during peak season (December-April).
