Casa Carmelita de Arriba

Casa Carmelita de Arriba is a luxurious rooftop suite in a two-unit villa. Perfect for two people, it features a king-sized bed, custom-made credenza and TV, a beautiful locally made mirror, full bath and a shower with rainwater shower head. Steps from the front door is a fully furnished outdoor kitchen and dining area, as well as a private soaking pool from which to watch the gorgeous sunsets. It's a short walk to Tulum Centro (downtown), and only a 15-minute bike ride to the beach.

About the area:

Tulum consistently places in the top five beaches on Earth and the town has become globally recognized for its cenotes, Mayan ruins, nightlife, restaurants and bars.  There is a lot of investment happening in Tulum with Hilton having just opened the first “big” hotel a couple of months ago.

Mexico is widely considered by many to be a somewhat noisy place in general.  In most parts of most cities, you’ll find bread vendors with bicycle bells dinging, service providers with megaphones on their roof - advertising as they drive along, dogs barking, roosters making their signature call and sometimes construction.  While it is unlikely you will hear a rooster or dog in our neighborhood, there can be construction work nearby and in other developments.

While you won’t hear the trucks on the main road (Kukulkan) from Casa Carmelita, you can expect a slightly dusty ride to our property.  Please use caution and drive safely.  While on-site, there are times you may hear some construction outside of our control, like most other cities.  Work is not every day.  In fact, IF there is noise, it usually doesn’t last long and never begins before 8am.

Most travelers have a mixture of adventurous days and lazy days.  During the week, lots of guests are out enjoying all that Tulum has to offer, historical sites, beach hunting, cenote swimming, on a foodie mission, exploring the Sian Ka’an biosphere, taking a day trip to Bacalar - nobody gets bored in Tulum!

  
During the weekends, outside of tourist centric places, most workers have a half day Saturday and don’t work at all on Sunday (including construction workers!).  Please research to make sure this is the right place for your vacation.  Tulum is beautiful and unique, we’d love to show you why!
