Location

Ana y José is located right on the white sand beach of Tulum, in Tulum's beachfront Hotel Zone, about a 15-minute drive from downtown Tulum, and within walking distance of plenty of dining and shopping options down the beach road. Taxis are plentiful in this area, and are an affordable way to get around for those without a car. Tulum's Maya ruins, with a beautiful beach below, are about a 12-minute drive from Ana y José. With the Sian Ka'an biosphere beginning at the end of the beach road, this area is home to many exotic birds and reptiles. Cancun International Airport is approximately an hour and 40 minutes away. 

Food and drink

The restaurant that sits on the sand, serves a selection of local and international dishes that can also be enjoyed from your sun lounger directly on the beach. Choose from a selection of seafood and typical Mexican dishes, and don't miss out on the delicious cocktails.

Families

Unlike many hotels in Tulum, children are welcome here. There are a good number of rooms to choose from, suiting all ages and preferences and the beach is outstanding with safe swimming.

Facilities and activities

For a moment of pure relaxation, make your way to the hotel’s Om Spa, where you can choose from a wide range of beauty and relaxation treatments, such as Papaya Tropical Hydration and Hydro Massage with flowers. Later, head to one of the nearby beaches to unwind in the sunshine. You can also borrow a bicycle to explore the local area, which offers activities including snorkeling, diving and horse riding, or head over to Tulum to experience the ancient Maya ruins there. Facilities at the hotel include a small swimming pool, and an excellent restaurant specializing in Mexican cuisine and ceviche.
