In fact, their sustainable practices are even certificated by Green Key. The Green Key Award leads standards in sustainable operation in tourism and environmental responsibility.
Casa de las Olas
This magical Beach Hotel is truly enchanting! One of the oldest structures on Tulum beach, this eight-suite hotel offers oceanside views, delicious local food and lush greenery.
Also, Casa de las Olas is dedicated to being entirely green. Therefore the entire hotel is powered by solar energy, and the water for each hotel room comes from a nearby Cenote.
Even the guests play their part! By investing in a sophisticated septic system, the toilets in the rooms now help feed the plants on the property! This sounds like a innovative way to compost waste and help our planet, right?
Azulik
Azulik is probably your once in a lifetime hotel experience! Their so-called organic architecture is rooted in the combination of three pillars: nature, ancestry and art. A wonderful choice if you want an exciting vacation!
Their treehouses are made out of mexican ebony and you can treat yourself in their spa area with a traditional Mayan massage. Another bonus is that it is adults-only, making it a great option for an intimate couple’s retreat.
The unique selling point of the Azulik? The rooms don’t use electricity! The rooms are illuminated by romantic candlelight, helping to reduce light pollution on the beach.
Papaya Playa Project
If you’re more of a party animal, the Papaya Playa Project is the place to be! Not only does the beach club offer yummy food and cocktails in the daytime, but full-on dance parties at night! Thus the hotel is a magnet for both local and international DJs who want to spin some awesome tunes.
As well as dancing, the hotel offers lots of other exciting experiences too. For example, you can paddleboard at night – just you, the ocean and the stars!
A few years ago, the Papaya Playa Project pledged to achieve zero emissions and is well on its way to achieving this. The resort has retained 93% of the original jungle it was built on. It also has a fruit and vegetable plantation where it grows cashews, bananas, coconuts and jackfruit.
