I’d originally planned to share some more photos with you today from my days spent in Playa del Carmen… but then I got to Tulum yesterday and fell in love. Besides, all I really had to say about Playa is that I found the most amazing spot for a $35.00 massage (for one hour!) It’s called Zen Spa on 5th + 12th. Go. But back to Tulum. Honestly guys, I just got here and am already thinking about how I’m going to come back. It has to be a yearly thing, at the very least. I am positively in awe and in love with this place.
Thanks to Rita, I am staying at the Coqui Coqui… but my hotel // perfumerie deserves its own post so we’ll get to that a little later.
{on the main road, which is really just a narrow dirt road, there are all sorts of little bazaars and shops just like this one. Everything is locally made and beautifully designed.}
{The only thing I’ve bought so far is a coverup from Josa (also Rita’s recommendation) I splurged on a yellow and white striped one. Splurged, meaning I spent about $80 on it. I’ve been trying not to shop and to spend my money here on experiences vs. things, but I fell in love with the cuts + colors of their caftans. Everything Josa makes is made in Mexico and the pieces are really chic in a cool, sexy but not trying to hard sort of way.}
{the entrance to the courtyard of my hotel. Love how rustic it is.}
This place looks beautiful, and it sounds like you’re having a fantastic time!
ah this looks amazing! I went to Mexico this past year and left with like 3 painted skulls haha!
Love all your pictures. I love spending money in experiences when I travel… unless is something really special.

Love your post, and site. I just returned from a trip to Mexico, and am missing the beach when I look at your photos!
Did you discover the beachside huts / cabanas just down the shoreline from the ruins in Tulum?? Loved sitting at the outside bar there dining alfresco watching the hammocks sway in the breeze!! Great pictures!!
Good thing you got out of that clubbing hotel! Haha!
Looks lovely. 🙂
