Hotel Profile: Azulik
The Azulik hotel is on the Tulum beachfront, half a mile south of Tulum pueblo on the Punta Allen road. It is an adults-only, clothing-optional retreat with 15 rooms. The beachside huts are made from local hardwoods and have waterfront decks, ideal for sunning and catching the ocean breezes. Each villa has a private bathroom with hot water and a wooden bathtub. There is no electricity in the rooms but candles and matches are provided. The beach behind the hotel is rocky and has many sea fans, which are washed in with the tide, and there are sandy access points good for swimming just a short walk away.
The reef is only a couple hundred yards from shore, and there is good snorkeling and kayaking in front of the resort when the waves aren’t too rough. The tour desk also plans jungle hikes, ruins visits, and cenote trips. Spa services at the adjacent Maya Spa include aromatherapy, massage, body scrubs, and Reiki. Though there is no restaurant, guests can eat at the neighboring hotels and can even order room service, which is prepared at the villa. Just raise the red flag on your deck to summon a waiter.
Rates range from $225 in a Sea Villa in low season to $350 for the Honeymoon or Romance Villa in high season. For booking information, visit the Mayan Holiday Reservations Center.
