Elements far exceeded our expectations. As first time Tulum goers it was really difficult to gauge which hotels were going to live up to their photos and website descriptions. We read through a lot of negative reviews at alternative accommodation (lots of complaints about noise from building developments nearby, uncleanliness, bad service, photographic misrepresentation etc). Elements couldn't have been more perfect. Our room was HUGE, much bigger than it looked online. The bed was enormous. French doors which looked out across the pool. Loads of storage space and wardrobe space to properly unpack, hang everything up etc. 'Continental' breakfast was great. A fruit bowl with yoghurt & granola + toast w/butter & jam + a cooked breakfast of your choice (quesadillas w/guacamole, mexican eggs, ham & guacamole etc). Water dispenser at reception so no need to buy bottled water every 5 mins. Wonderful service. Really well located - not right in the thick of it so it feels really peaceful, but just a short walk to the centre and lots of incredible restaurants v close to the hotel.
