L41 Tulum Tranquility
There are few secrets left in the Riviera Maya. In this astoundingly popular destination, most formerly hidden gems are now well -known attractions. However, there is still a place far from everything, stuck in time, where big resorts and noisy crowds are completely absent, and the jungle touches the electric turquoise waters. Soliman Bay is located ten minutes north of the vibrant Tulum. This crystalline inlet has gone largely unnoticed. The beach is quiet, the jungle is unspoiled, and the water is unbelievably calm thanks to the coral reef that almost protrudes out of the surface. If there is one word that comes to mind, it would be seclusion. It’s the quintessential Caribbean experience. Package details:
• Three-night stay for two guests
• Signature eco-conscious and design-forward beachfront suite accommodation in a boutique hotel with private terrace and private plunge pool
• Hotel-style amenities to include a beach bar and choice of oceanfront or rooftop pool
• Daily breakfast and twice daily housekeeping service provided
• Kayaks, SUPs, and snorkeling equipment included to explore the waters of tranquil Soliman Bay
• Travel between May 1st and October 31st, 2023
