This place could not have been more perfect and beautiful. Absolutely gorgeous. Extremely helpful and accommodating staff. Airport pickup/drop off was arranged by them and was very easy. The hotel itself is not too big and very peaceful. Very cute little bungalows strewn throughout the sand.
We stayed in "Tatitch", which is overlooking the beach and has its own little area where you can relax on comfy chairs right outside of the bungalow. (There definitely are some iguanas you will share it with. I was scared of them at first, but we worked out a relationship based on distance and respect and I got over it). It had a private shower and bathroom, which had great hot water and water pressure. Spent a little extra for this one but it was worth it. I did use the community bathrooms once or twice and they were very clean.
The atmosphere is very peaceful and quiet. Much preferred it to a bigger resort, but you can walk down a few minutes if you're looking for larger resorts, other restaurants etc. The beach at Diamante K is smaller, but plenty big for the number of guests there. Very calm and relaxing.
The room itself was great. Always clean and great daily housekeeping. Tiny but powerful fan over the bed that was surrounded by a drape made the temperature perfectly cool. During the day we opened the windows for the ocean breeze and it was fine.
The restaurant was impeccable. We got breakfast included with our room. Great coffee, agua frescas, fresh fruit and good menu. We had a few more meals for a late lunch and dinner and those were fantastic as well. We had fresh ceviche, mahi mahi, roasted corn and probably something else delicious I'm forgetting. Micheladas, margaritas, pina coladas - all made to perfection. Service was so on point. Friendly, super attentive, and quick. Like, mindblowingly great.
You can walk right down the beach to visit other resorts or just walk in the sand. The ruins are about a 15 minute walk, downtown is about 15 minutes via taxi (which are usually readily available by just walking out to the front of the hotel). Cenotes are about the same.
Will recommend this place any and every time someone tells me they are going to Tulum!
