Tulum Beach at Mezzanine***

There are many areas of Tulum Beach that are amazing. One of our favorite spots is the beach that is just to the north of the Mezzanine hotel. The beach is clear and open and the sand is amazing. I have not eaten or stayed at Mezzanine but it looks beautiful and from what I have heard from friends it has the best Thai food around.


To access the beach area in Tulum (at least for now) you must travel down the only road that goes to the beach. When entering Tulum from the north (Cancun and Playa del Carmen areas) you will come to what is currently the only street light in Tulum. On this corner there is Super San Francisco, a Hertz, and a 7-11. When you come to the light you make a left. --Going right will take you on the road that leads to Coba--

At the end of about 2km there is fork in the road. You must go left or right. Mezzanine is to the left. You will pass a few hotels and cabana spots and shortly will pass Mezzanine. To take a taxi here from town is currently around 40 pesos. Just after the hotel there is an opening and a small spot on the side to park a car.


When you walk onto the beach you come upon a totally open and wide beach. It is so beautiful. There are few makeshift palapas set up here as well. They make a nice area to get a little shade.

The reason that we love this part of the beach so much is because there are not a lot of people around. Sometimes it is nice to have a lot of people but sometimes it is nice to have a quite day at the beach.

There is access to Mezzanine if you wanted to get a drink or a bite to eat. We usually bring a cooler with sandwiches and sodas and or beers.
