"La Zebra has a top-rated reputation for a fun ambiance, great service, chic rooms, and great beach access. The hotel has six different categories of rooms from basic Garden Rooms to beachfront suites with balconies and plunge pools. Rooms offer a harmony of natural beach tones and traditional textures that skips the flashy or industrial touches of other Tulum hotels. However, all rooms are still sophisticated and families will appreciate the suites, which come with one King-sized bed and two single beds."

La Zebra, a Small Luxury Hotel (Tulum, Riviera Maya) Verified Reviews | Tablet Hotels

"Barefoot beach living underpins the laidback style of La Zebra Tulum, where all the suites and casitas sit right on the sands for waking up to a sweeping sea view. The relaxed restaurant and beach bar serve up Mexican flavors and fresh seasonal ingredients, complemented by signature cocktails and local artisanal beers and wines. And whilst the beach is a natural playground for kids, La Zebra has plenty of activities planned to keep them entertained, including learning about Mexican corn to make tortillas and guacamole, craft workshops and piñata parties." - Tablet Hotels

We stayed in a room with a plunge pool outside and an ocean view. We really didn’t want to leave our room because it was so comfortable and in such a beautiful setting! One of the highlights was enjoying the heated pool in the evening and watching thundershowers off in the distance and listening to the wonderful music playing at the bar nearby. It was truly a magical experience. ||Every night there is a turndown service and they serve fresh herbal tea and a little treat. We stayed three days and each night it was a different treat and they were all delicious.||We also can’t say enough about the staff at the Zebra. They were all so hospitable and accommodating with all our requests. We felt like we were not just guests, but friends too.||We also regularly enjoyed the restaurant at the adjacent sister hotel with its beautiful outdoor patio. The food was delicious and healthy. ||We will definitely return to this hotel!

10 out of 10 the best place in tulum don’t waste time anywhere else! We went all up and down the hotel zone to find a place and this place is a hidden gem! So much nicer and better so clean so welcoming and super friendly staff and people there. They go above and beyond to make you feel welcome and provide a safe place for everyone. We saw families with small children and couples all felt welcome and enjoyed this place together. The energy was amazing. Also a plus the parking is free! We met the CEO Juan what a quality guy he made us feel so welcome and took time to visit with us. You can certainly tell they care about each and every person whether they are a guest staying at the hotel or guests that come in for the day. They also offer a wonderful area to watch football upstairs with the NFL red zone so everybody can watch their team. It was a wonderful experience. We will never forget it and will definitely choose to only stay there when we return to Tulum you can tell all of the staff care so much about Making the experience for each and every person special. They are providing a high-quality safe place that is extremely needed in this hotel zone! Great job!

La Zebra is truly our favorite hotel anywhere, every stay somehow tops the last! From the moment we arrived, the staff made us feel so cared for. A special thank you to Juan Carlos, who went above and beyond throughout our visit, making sure we had fresh tea in our room each night, decorating for our celebrations, and recommending (and even reserving) some of the best restaurants in Tulum, like Casa Banana. The hotel itself is perfection. We loved relaxing on the beds by the beach, where our son could safely play in the sand and nap in the shade. The guacamole and ceviche were easily some of our favorite meals of the trip. Our room’s private plunge pool was such a treat. it made it easy to enjoy some quiet time together while our son napped peacefully inside (monitored from our baby monitor). Our son also loved the playground on the beach, and the thoughtful staff made his stay even more special by surprising him with a free shirt and a piñata to remember our time there, such a sweet and personal gesture that meant so much to us as a family. Another reason we love La Zebra is how walkable everything is. There are amazing restaurants, shops, and sister properties just steps away, including Lula, where we joined a complimentary yoga class that was such a lovely bonus. We always talk about our time at La Zebra and how special it felt. Every visit gets better and better, and we truly cannot wait to return. This place will forever hold a special place in our hearts.

From the moment I arrived at Lula by Le Zebra, I knew I was stepping into something extraordinary. The property itself feels like a modern magical treehouse, it’s earthy, intentional, and deeply connected to the land. The grounds are lush and built around the trees rather than cutting them down, with thoughtful touches everywhere: foot rinses at every entrance, outdoor shower by the beach, and a rooftop above the spa and shala where the sunrises feel sacred. My oceanside room was spacious and cool with full air conditioning, a comfortable bed, luxurious pillows, and a daybed for lounging. The hammock chair on the balcony became one of my favorite spots to just sway and listen to the sea. Turndown service with tea and cookies each night was the perfect little ritual of comfort.||The Staff & Service|The service at Lula is impeccable, warm, and heartfelt. Every interaction was infused with kindness. Housekeeping was consistent and always thoughtful, Rosa and Theresa especially stood out. One morning I realized I’d left behind my bathing suit cover-up and the team had already found it for me before I even asked. The staff truly care about your stay and go above and beyond in ways both big and small.||The Food Was A Culinary Journey at La Zebra!!!|Because I was there during low season, La Zebra’s kitchen prepared meals for both properties, Lula and La Zebra. What an absolute blessing! The food was, without exaggeration, some of the best I’ve had in my life.||Chef Raziel, with the brilliant team (Gabriel, Juan Pablo, and Daniel) alongside the attentive servers (Christian, Adolfo, Manuel, Leo, Damian), created meals that felt like love stories on a plate. Every dish was intentional and allowed the ingredients to shine. Over the course of the retreat, I enjoyed a journey through cuisines:|   •   Whole grilled fish that felt like a feast from the sea itself|   •   Fresh ceviche served in coconuts, both vibrant and tender|   •   Sashimi that melted on the tongue|   •   Grilled chicken cooked to juicy perfection|   •   Crisp cucumber salads, colorful fruits, velvety hummus, and more||Each meal arrived with 2–3 appetizers, 2 mains, and a dessert. The abundance was stunning and the freshness unmatched. They even used copal smoke and fans during meals to ease the mosquitoes, such a thoughtful detail. Truly, this team and their food were a highlight of the entire retreat.||The Retreat & Wellness Experience|I came to Lula for a women’s wellness retreat curated by Chara, with movement offerings guided by Ricardo, Chara and others. Together they held a beautiful container that balanced structure with spaciousness. Each ceremony, from the cenote to cacao to temazcal to the floating at Sian Ka’an revealed new layers of healing and wonder.||Chara’s gift is her devotion to women’s wellness and soul nourishment. She carefully created experiences that helped us push our edges while also allowing room to rest, to choose, to simply be. Ricardo’s gentle masculine presence grounded our group, especially in the movement classes, adding balance and steadiness. I felt both supported and free throughout my stay.||Final Reflection|Lula by Le Zebra is not just a hotel. It is an oasis. A place where luxury and intention meet. A space where you feel both cared for and at ease.|If you are considering a stay here, do it. Lula is magical. I will absolutely be back.

We stayed at Lula which is the neighboring hotel and I left a review there five stars absolutely amazing. The restaurant service for both Lula and Zebra was 5 star. I can’t name one staff member specifically/c they were all awesome! They are accommodating, friendly and warm. The food was out of this world! The steak tacos and guacamole were two of my favorite things but there is not enough room to mention everything else! Have a margarita and let the beautiful staff spoil you❤️

We just returned from a 7 day stay. What an amazing property and the absolute best employees. So welcoming and simply top notch. You couldn’t ask for more kind people. Rooms, food, cocktails and workers are the best of the best. Can’t wait to come back. Not a compliant in the world!!

I enjoyed La Zebra and their wonderful staff who made may stay seem very personal. In the restaurant manager Will runs a great hospitality team and Abraham was especially outstanding along with Señora Martin, and all the other fellas serving. Excellent customer service from beginning to end. At check in my arrival was handled beautifully by Adriana, Araxatha, Lucy and the fellas. From Texas

Experience of a lifetime is an understatement when I look back on the memories I was gifted because of this little slice of paradise. I attended the wellness retreat with my best friend (shout out toChara) and was blown away by the thoughtfulness that was put into every single little detail. Chara, I just can’t thank you enough. You truly couldn’t have coordinated this trip any better. From our excursions to our sound baths, from the food to our workouts and everything in between. Literally every moment of every day was perfectly just what we needed. How did you do that??? The beauty of your intention to set the pace for this wellness journey was simply wonderful. It was really exceptional because we had the choice to do it all or do nothing. A perfect balance.Because of you, Chara, 8 strangers are leaving with a heart full of cherished memories and friendships I believe will last forever. It was just magical to say the least. The property is incredible in every aspect. Luxurious but quaint. I never had to ask for anything and I can honestly say every single employee I came in contact with had a smile on their face and you couldn’t help but feel like they were just so happy to have us. I have to say I’ve never experienced that before. We felt catered to without the property feeling stuffy. A balance I believe is very hard to find. This place was absolutely top-notch and the best vacation I’ve ever been on. So good in fact, I will be attending every single year that I am capable. Just can’t thank Chara and Lula for one of the best experiences I’ve ever had.

I didn't stay at the hotel, so I can't mention anything regarding the rooms, but the drinks are amazing. Use real fruit to make a pineapple vodka , drunk asf after 2 drinks. Great for baby under the shade on the beds on the beach. No hidden fees or bs, just spend $600 pesos and your good to stay all day. Pool has swim up bar, beach was clean and nobody hounding you to buy a bracelet

Incredible hotel in a slightly quieter part of all the action in Tulum. Still walkable to everything, but the hotel feels like a tranquil oasis right on the sand. Service is excellent across the board. Abraham was especially wonderful during our stay. The rooms are really nice a spacious. Cleaning staff is excellent and provide a delightful turndown service with complementary tea and local chocolates. Nice Touch! The hotel is family friendly and even has a small, cute, jungle style playground for kids while not feeling like the big resort theme park. Far from it, it is an intimate, boutique resort. Perhaps the biggest highlight is the food. The restaurant is excellent! Highly recommend Hotel La Zebra for individuals, couples and families a like.

Perfect beachside setting in Tulum. Convenient parking available for our rental car. Staff were very attentive. Room (#26) was comfy and had an amazing view of the beach. Very quiet location - except for the one night there was salsa dancing and a band. However as promised they ended by 11 and it was fun to have that entertainment right there. It was our first visit to Tulum so we were also super happy with WHERE this is in relation to shops and restaurants. We really had a great walk either way on the beach to experience other places during the day, and in the evening we were close enough to walk to many places for food or cocktails. Loved the amenities at the hotel- 2 bars, restaurant with delicious food, in room pour-over coffee set up, safe, fridge, safe drinking water. Would recommend La Zebra!

I want to go back to Tulum and wouldn't normally revisit the same hotel as I always want a different travel experience, however, it would be hard to imagine staying anywhere else. The beach front location, the incredible food and the individual pools are amazing. The coffee is so fantastic that I brought a bag home with me and come to find out is from a nearby area and only available through a handful of upscale locations. We were able to participate in a turtle hatching and assisted the turtles as they made their journey to the water. I really couldn't say enough awesome things about this spot. I hope it's not booked when I want to go back!

Absolutely loved La Zebra! We had the most incredible experience here-- we felt like royalty! The staff were so so friendly and always smiling. The rooms were beautiful, clean, and we enjoyed a nice surprise every night such as tea, chocolate, or mezcal. They even gifted a spray that we can take home to remind us of our beautiful room in Tulum! We also enjoyed lounging on the beach and ordering drinks and food. I would highly recommend staying at this boutique hotel!

La Zebra has been an amazing hotel but due to the recent sargassum you can't use the beach. The sargassum smells and while the hotels are doing there best to contain it, it defeats the purpose of paying a steep premium to be by the ocean. Also, during our stay the WiFi goes out, the electricity went out and the water was out. Makes you incredibly bummed when you're paying top dollar and you can brush your teeth, cool off or use the internet.

Stayed here for seven nights. Great experience ! Rooms are awesome, with dip pool in the front with direct access to the beach, I like to dip my feet and clean them off before going back into the room. The hotel restaurant is lovely. We mostly just lounged and stayed local, there are a few local restaurants within walking distance. Our favorite was ARCA, which we went to multiple times. This is a great hotel, would go back. Experience is upper scale, but totally worth it!

Best fish tacos I have ever had! The margaritas are also a must get. The restaurant was along the beach, and we had no trouble getting a table for lunch on a weekday. The second floor pool area was beautiful, so don't forget to check it out after your meal. Reasonably priced for Tulum, with exceptional food and service, will definitely be coming back if I visit Tulum again!

La Zebra is gorgeous. But it was possibly the meal we had in Tulum that left the least impression on me. That's probably because their chilaquiles were the worst I had in Tulum. Everywhere else in Tulum you get tortillas that have been cooked down in salsa. The chilaquiles served at La Zebra were similar to chilaquiles I've had in the Mexican food desert of Nashville, Tennessee (I'm exaggerating, it's no that bad!): a bird's nest of hard, crunchy tortilla chips with a drizzle of salsa over the top. If plain tortilla chips with an overcooked egg on top are your thing, this restaurant will make chilaquiles that will blow your socks off. (My husband had the eggs with chilaca sauce, which he liked). The restaurant is beautiful, and the view is stunning. But that's sort of true for everywhere in Tulum's hotel zone. And this was one of the least impressive meals we had in our week in Tulum.

This review is for the private Chef's Table tasting at La Zebra. We stayed at their sister resort, Mi Amor, and could not resist the chance to have a private meal made for us by Chef Eleazar. Boy he did not disappoint! Ten courses...8 drink pairings....everything was delicious and artfully crafted. It was wonderful tasting Mayan food cooked from locals, as well as Mexican cuisine with a contemporary twist. Tomato and corn gazpacho...salad with jicama foam and beet purée...pork cheek...tomatillo and mint palette cleanser (frozen by liquid nitrogen!)...churros and corn ice cream....it was all amazing. Chef Eleazar, Dan, Felipe and Alberto took great care of us for 3 wonderful hours. An experience we will never forget from our memorable honeymoon in Tulum!

This was our first stop in Tulum this past weekend (July 12th) and it was fantastic!! I was with a group of 6 women and the staff made it such a great welcome to the area! They were so polite and accommodating that we truly enjoyed our time there. We went for drinks and a meal at the beach club and had delicious tacos and a specialty beverage! Erick, Beto, Martin, and Walter were phenomenal! I truly hope they get the recognition they deserve because they went above and beyond to make our time there great. I highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a relaxing time at the beach. Additionally, the security agent Daniel was very reassuring that the items in our car would be safe and took extra precautions to make sure we were comfortable with the security. All around great employees and a great experience! Loved it here!

We are usually more budget travelers and would stay in Tulum Pueblo but when we found that La Zebra was having a 1/2 special on rooms we decided it was too good a deal to pass up. We had one of the Garden View Cabanas for 3 nights, just steps from the beach. The room was nicely sized and included a refrigerator, room safe, A/C and ceiling fan. The king sized bed was one of the most comfortable I've ever slept on. A nice selection of high quality organic soaps and shampoos were provided along with a complementary bottle of tequila! Bottled water is also provided for drinking and brushing teeth. The only draw back to our room was there is only a divider between the sleeping and toilet area so be sure to travel with someone you are very comfortable with :) We spent most of our time on the lounge chairs on the beach, sipping on excellent cocktails and enjoying some really good Mexican craft beers. We only ate breakfast and lunch at their restaurant which was excellent (incredible coffee). There are also plenty of really good restaurants within walking distance. The entire staff was amazing from start to finish - some of the best trained staff I've encountered in all of my travels. Everybody was so friendly and welcoming. The only minor inconvenience was their wi-fi - I know people come to disconnect and relax but my wife did have to so some things online for her business. The connection was slow and would frequently disconnect even when the signal was strong. There is plenty of other nearby restaurants on the beach road that offer free wi-fi if you need to reliable, fast connection I would definitely stay here again if I come back to Tulum!

Absolutely legendary service provided by Joss and Zaama. Wonderful staff. The best cocktails ever at their bar "The Mulberry Project". Alex and Elliot are world class bartenders/mixologists. Food is top notch. Great BBQ on Saturday. Other staff was incredible as well. Such a gem of a hotel in the prime area of Tulum. Walking distance to some of the best restaurants and clubs. Went with a group of 10 guys and would recommend this hotel to all!

My amazing fiancé booked this hotel. As you get overwhelmed with so many hotel choices, let me tell you why this hotel was perfect in every way: -Room I3 (that is not the #13 but the letter "I" and then a 3. It is considered the penthouse because it is the second floor and has 180 degrees of vast blue water and white sand views. Plus a very large hot tub that is incredibly romantic!! -fantastic food. We ate there four times! Shrimp tacos, huevos rancheros, chips & multiple salsas. Such reasonable prices. -Margarita - how many times can I say margarita? and rum drinks? -the beach is raked DAILY. no seaweed. Walking the beautiful beaches, you can see which resorts rake ...and which ones do not. Makes a difference. -proximity to two of the best restaurants - walking - Hartwood and Arca. -Ansara - yoga retreat hotel is next door. You must take a class there. Andrea was the instructor. I do triathlon; I do not do yoga. yes, I should. Yes, I strained a calf muscle. No I was unable to do an inversion. Yes, I tried. Twice! -Huge room and shower!! -welcome gifts of waters, wine, beer, nuts, candies in your room. Such a treat. -cabanas - great shade and plenty of seating - soft seating and beds. In the states, where the big resorts charge $200-$500 for a day of cabanas, these are free. Spend your money on tips and drinks & food. -outstanding service by everyone: the restaurant staff, housekeeping, management. Internet is spotty but to be honest, I was glad it was because we relaxed and took advantage of this incredible piece of Mexico.

As you may have heard there's a big seaweed issue going on but La Zebra pretty much fixed that! They spend over three hours a day cleaning the beach and it's the cleanest I have seen in Tulum, Playa Del Carmen and Riviera Maya! Thank you for all of your hard work! If you're trying to decide on visiting this area you must stay here - it's pristine and white sand is like powder! The service was great and we enjoyed grilled fish tacos on homemade corn tortillas on the beach and were so pleased. The drinks are also extremely tasty! Shout out to Oscar and his excellent hospitality! He greeted us when we arrived and treated us like family. Love this place!

Visited Le Zebra during our vacation. Very nice ambience, location and service. Live music was awesome! Food was really good! We took one of those tables on the beach!

As a family we highly recommend this hotel! Everything was absolutely amazing and perfect. The hotel is located in such a great location in Tulum and right on the beach, any suite you are given is just a few steps from the beach. The suites are the perfect size for a family, we are a family of 3 and found it to be very spacious. The rooms are chic and stylish, not to mention absolutely immaculate. The service provided daily is absolutely amazing, from the cleanliness to the evening tea & chocolates provided every night. The cleaning team is super sweet and super attentive, words cannot explain how amazing they are. All the service and staff at La Zebra was absolutely amazing! Starting from the concierge, Vanessa, to the general manager, Natalia. These ladies were very attentive and caring of how we were doing and what we had planned for the day. They were both there to give us additional tips and ideas to what our thoughts were for the day and schedule transport if we needed it. There aren't enough words to describe how great the food was! Everything was fresh, organic and served with a smile. The entire serving staff were absolutely wonderful and very attentive. The moment they saw us walking in they greeted us and asked us how our day is going. We became very found of every single on of the serving staff we encountered but we have nothing but good words to say about Juan, Primo & Santiago. These three guys were very attentive and very helpful. Whether we were having a meal at the restaurant or lounging on the beach and needing some snacks or drinks, these guys we absolutely amazing. They gave us amazing recommendations on what to order and always had new suggestions, they also would provide details on each dish that one would not know by just reading the menu. These three servers also had tips and suggestions of what to see and where to go in Tulum with additional history of why we should visit these places. We had numerous meals at the restaurant range from breakfast, lunch & dinner and could not find a single plate we did not like. Each plate was just as amazing as the next. Most, if not all, were suggested by one of the servers. Must give a huge thank you to the serving staff for getting together with my dad and surprising me with a little birthday cake and singing happy birthday, it was truly very sweet and special. Words cannot express how amazing everything and everyone was on this trip. We stay a total of 6 nights and wish we stayed longer. We are looking forward on returning to La Zebra, hopefully next summer! We highly recommend this for any type of vacation!

Whenever I go to Tulum, I make sure to eat here at least once. It is right on the beach, so you have a very nice view when eating. There is a thatched roof, and the food is tasty. Service can be slow, but the employees are nice. I would recommend to a tourist visiting Tulum. food: 4.5 stars employee kindness: 5 stars location/view: 5 stars tidiness: 4 stars (there is some sand on the floor, because it's on the beach) timeliness of food: 3.5 stars

From the time we got to the hotel until we left we were treated so well by the staff. They found us transportation from the airport. If we needed any info on excursions or restaurants they were right there to help us out. I would recommend this place to anyone that is coming to tulum. Very kid friendly place as well. We will be back for sure.

We ended coming here three times during our trip. Two nights fora whole dinner. Another for appetizers. The food is good and the presentation and service are very good. My wife's mains were always good. My two were both a bit dry. The appetizers were very good. They take credit card.

Hola!!! My husband and I enjoyed several meals during our weekend visit at La Zebra. The food is off the charts! BUT, that's not even the beginning. The staff was incredible. We were treated like family. Cristina and Margarita are dynamite twins, who cashier with style and flair. Happy, funny snd sweet. Filiberto, Celso, Jaire and Juan get out! So helpful with our Spanish practice, along with a fantastic sense of humor. Everyone was AMAZING. Last, but not least, Christian, the Bar Manager: what a gem. If we could hire him away, we would. ;) We hope to be back in the future. Until then, thank you so much for a beautiful and most memorable experience. Asta Luego Amigos!

I was very disappointed with La Zebra. The location is a high end hotel with a nice beach area. The view is nice, but the view is nice everywhere in Tulum. The prices are quite high and the quality was...extremely disappointing. The steak taco was good quality for mexico, but for the price, should have been a better taco. Even more disappointing was the service. We were there around 5 or 6pm and there were 1 or 2 other tables in the restaurant. I'd say 8% capacity. The waiter completely forgot about us, didn't check on us for long periods of time and came by twice in an hour. He seemed to be huddled at the register with 4 other waiters and a manager the entire time laughing and having a great time, I guess. I had to walk over to ask for more limes. We were told the hotel was a minimum of $900/night. If that's the service you get for your $900/night, they won't be in business long. Management clearly doesn't understand customer service at any level.Take a pass on this place and find a spot with a more down to earth vibe, more reasonable prices and better service.

We just had a lovely lunch @ La Zebra sitting in the sun in the beach :). Our waiter was very attentive & friendly ~ forgot a couple things & was apologetic & quickly retrieved what we had asked for. The aguachile ceviche was fresh & tasty. My friend had the lime soup & raved over every bite. Chips were served with a variety of delicious salsas. They have nice smoothies & fruit/veggie juices as well. Bathrooms were nice and clean.

We enjoyed a romantic dinner and the best Mexican food of our trip here. The tortilla soup has heft and is superb. It could be a meal of its own, but don't stop there! Ceviche was amazingly fresh and the appetizer was enough for a meal and leftovers. The candlelit, open air restaurant has a relaxing ambiance and while we didn't stay here, the accommodations look worthy of consideration for our next trip. The bartender takes great pride in his tasty creations and had a lovely demeanor, cutting open fresh coconuts and handing out straws for kids who found such treasures on the beach. Everyone took pride in their work and service.

Everything was great except the hotel's cabana reservation policy. Guests are instructed to leave a hotel provided beach towel on your selected cabana at 9am or after to reserve it. But I learned by surprise and disappointment that hotel guests or staff simply remove your towel when you aren't around, which happened to me twice in one trip - towel down, and after an hour at breakfast I come back and someone else is at my cabana. It puts a big damper on your trip when at no fault of your own you can't enjoy the beach at a beach front hotel. Staff and management tried to find me a comparable, alternative cabana, which was impossible because all of the best ones had been reserved by other guests. Best = cabanas with optional shade and consistent internet connectivity. I was comped a bbq meal for my trouble, which was nice. My suggestion to other guests would be to leave some sort of inexpensive personal belonging that is less likely to be removed than an unidentifiable towel.

Great location on a wonderful beach! My sister just got married here last weekend and it was a fantastic wedding. The staff was super great and the food and accommodations were the best! Thank you for an amazing vacation stay. I will recommend this place and defiantly be back.. who knows maybe for my own wedding! Also had my first try at CRICKETS... yes I ate one.. fun time all around. BTW they accommodated for 60 people at the wedding so BAM.. good job La Zebra!

The food and service here is so good that I didn't leave the grounds for three days. I don't like the layout of the place: the center of the hotel is the windy and underlit restaurant. Other than that it is perfect.

La Zebra was such a great choice when it came to resorts. The staff is extremely friendly, helpful and professional. The food was always fresh and delicious. I saw a comment regarding the chilaquiles not being so good, and I have to say, I found them to be fabulous. Everything that I ate at La Zebra was spot on and fresh. Never greasy or overdone. The rooms are well maintained and have a hip, modern vibe. I stayed in the beachfront suite with pool. It was spacious, right on the water and I ended up using the dipping pool quite frequently to cool off. The showers in the room are enormous. Literally, 12 people could fit into the double shower, and have room for more! (Not that I tried it). It's nice to have foot baths at each entrance to keep the sand out. The room was serviced frequently and there were numerous "treats" left in the room as compliments of the hotel. La Zebra is centrally located on the beach road. I was able to walk to almost anywhere from my locale, either on the road or via the beach. The hotel was secure, with nightly watch and always a staff presence. When I needed taxis, questions, recommendations, the hotel staff took great care of me. Also, and quite important, La Zebra maintains a great ambiance. Lively, but not crazy. Great music. Sunday Salsa nights are not to be missed! Highly recommend!
