AZULIK City of Arts

Azulik is an incredibly beautiful museum and absolutely worth visiting while in Tulum. The space blends indoor and outdoor areas and feels more like an immersive art experience than a traditional museum. Live trees are integrated throughout the structure, and the entire place feels like a large, elevated treehouse. Entry to the museum and rooftop costs 400 pesos, which gives access to the main indoor spaces and the rooftop areas. There is a more expensive ticket option, around 1,000 pesos, that includes access to the gardens, a small pool, and a credit toward dining at their restaurant, though we didn’t choose this option and can’t speak to the restaurant experience. The architecture is stunning and very zen. One of the most memorable features is the hammocks suspended above ground on the rooftop, which are both beautiful and slightly intimidating. The atmosphere is calm, quiet, and reflective, and we visited during the day on a Sunday when it was not crowded at all. I imagine it would also be an amazing place to visit around sunset. Right next door is a well regarded restaurant called Sylvia, which we didn’t have time to try but which looks like a farm to table style spot and seems worth checking out as part of the visit. Overall, Azulik is a unique and memorable experience and one of the most visually striking places we visited in Tulum.

This is a totally understated attraction with very few tourist and hence the experience was very enjoyable (strong air conditioning!). I like the zen-peace timeless design of the garden. It feels really surreal. There are some artist installations and the lunch area with a waterfall pool is very heavenly. Every corner is artistic and photogenic. They offer a lunch plus entry package and one could easily spend 3 to 4 hours here for both lunch and entertainment.

Bring cash in exact amount if you can. They don’t take credit card payment. We did not have enough peso bills, so they took $24 USD per ticket, which is higher exchange rate. Luckily we had enough US dollar bills to give them exact for two adults. Kids under 12 is free. $400 peso for regular admission. $1000 peso for the museum, the garden and restaurant. We heard the restaurant and the garden was not worth it for the price, so we skipped it. I thought it was bigger for the area we could explore inside the art based on pictures on google for the $400 peso. It is still total worth it to go there. About the museum/art gallery itself, it was creative and incredibly beautiful in every corner. We did not get tired to take pictures and videos every room and space inside. You could sit down to enjoy the art for a while. Unfortunately they don’t allow food and drink inside. It makes sense because it could ruin the experience of other people. Children are not allowed on the top pathway of the art. The pathway leads to the outside cool sitting area, but we did not get to go outside because it was wet outside due to the rain. They locked the doors there anyway. Other thing to know is if you bring professional camera, they will ask you to pay for a fee. Phone photo only. Overall, we love it so much. Even my 3-year-old son enjoyed the space too. It is big enough for him to wander around. I have not seen anything that is so beautiful like this before. I can sit there all day.

Absolutely worth the trip! The road to get there is a bit rough, but once you arrive — wow, it’s totally worth it! The place is absolutely beautiful, amazing, and so creative. We only had about an hour to explore, but honestly, you need at least two hours to really enjoy everything. The experience is unique and unforgettable. We should pay $1000 pesos for the ticket instead of $400, and it was definitely worth every bit. Highly recommend visiting if you’re looking for something different and inspiring! 🌿✨

We paid the full-price ticket to visit all three areas, as suggested by the guard at the entrance. It was raining that day, and no one informed us that the outdoor areas would not be accessible. After entering, we were told, “We will dry the floor and let you know.” Later, when we asked another staff member, we were told that when it rains, the outside areas are never opened. This information should have been clearly communicated before selling full-price tickets. It felt like tourists were charged knowing in advance that part of the experience would be unavailable. The restaurant was also disappointing. The food was mediocre for the price, and the dessert was unbelievably bad — clearly pre-prepared, and the ice cream was inedible. Overall, the experience did not justify the cost and was extremely disappointing.

Such a wonderful space! One of our highlights in México. When art is in harmony with nature... Take the restaurant ticket, pricey but delicious and unique atmosphere!

The museum itself is worth visiting and is very beautiful. The staff is very respectful and polite. If you have time in Tulum, deffo worth visiting. What should be kept in mind is the overpriced restaurant. They offer you two packages: 1. 400 pesos for museum only 2. Full experience package for 1000 pesos when you get to access the museum + restaurant + garden. I must adding they oversell full experience package as the prices in their menus are ridiculous even keeping in mind that we don’t usually look on the prices. For 600(27€) pesos which you can use in food and drinks consumption I managed to get one coca-cola , water(small) and one mojito. One humus was priced more than 20$ which is quite ridiculous. Basically saying - no way you will be able to afford one appetiser and one drink. Only by buying full package experience you can access the garden but with all the honesty it is quite small and you won’t be able to spend loads of time there. My recommendation is to visit museum but skip restaurant unless you really don’t have any expectations on what you spend vs what you get.

Must see nature inspired architecture 40 minutes from Tulum. Self guided walk through the spaces, both indoor and outdoor.
