Radhoo Tulum offers a tranquil escape into the jungle side of Tulum, with villas arranged around a central pool, creating an intimate and peaceful setting. The concept follows the signature “secluded jungle retreat” aesthetic, and while the atmosphere is charming, certain aspects prevent it from reaching its full potential. The Stay: A Relaxing End to the Trip The villas are spacious, well-designed, and provide a true sense of privacy. However, guests expecting direct beach access should note that Radhoo is located across the road from its partner hotel, where access to beach facilities is not guaranteed. Securing a proper sunbed required checking with reception in advance, and in our case, only bean bag seats were available—a minor inconvenience but something to be aware of for those prioritizing beach time. Most of our stay was spent unwinding by the pool, which had a relaxed, easygoing atmosphere. Complimentary bike rentals were a nice touch, allowing for some exploration. The staff was attentive, and service at the pool was efficient, though with the bar so close, it was just as easy to walk up and order directly. Dining & Atmosphere: Good, But Could Be So Much More Radhoo’s dining setup is one of its weaker points. Unlike the beautifully curated aesthetic found throughout the hotel, the restaurant space is minimalistic to the point of feeling unfinished—just a collection of tables in an open area next to the bar, lacking the inviting ambience one would expect. The food itself was fine but unremarkable. The breakfast, while included, was nothing particularly special, and overall, the culinary offerings lacked creativity. That said, the ceviche was a highlight—visually stunning, fresh, and full of flavour. Cocktails were also excellent and more reasonably priced compared to other hotels in the area. Missed Opportunities & Suggested Improvements Radhoo has undeniable potential but needs refinement to stand out among Tulum’s high-end boutique hotels. The jungle setting is beautiful, but currently, only the suites offer the immersive elevated jungle view. Creating a dedicated space—perhaps a raised lounge or rooftop bar—where all guests can enjoy this scenery would greatly enhance the experience. Additionally, expanding the wellness offerings, such as an in-house spa or yoga/ritual sessions, would align perfectly with the tranquil atmosphere and attract guests looking for a holistic retreat. Final Verdict Radhoo Tulum is a solid choice for those seeking a quiet, nature-immersed stay at a slightly more reasonable price point than beachfront hotels. However, without unique amenities to set it apart—such as an improved restaurant, more guest areas, or dedicated wellness experiences—it risks feeling more like a beautiful backdrop than a fully engaging retreat. Would I return? Not unless they create that elevated jungle-view space and expand their offerings. Otherwise, while relaxing, it could become monotonous for longer stays. My Personal Rating: B (Good, but missing key elements to make it truly memorable)
