Reservation made no problem. Beach was beautiful. Room beautiful. Water pressure was low, though, and there was no door to the bathroom, only a doorway. Breakfast was cool -- you get a tray to carry to your room. I thought that was great. For what we got, I think it was a bit expensive, but I also think that's the... more

We decided to stay at Posada Lamar based on reviews posted on TripAdvisor, and it definitely lived up to our expectations. This was our second trip to Tulum, and our first stay at Posada Lamar, and I was very pleased with our choice. (For a comparison to the places we stayed last time–Maya Tulum and Cabanas Ana y Jose, see... more

We just returned from a five night stay at Posada Lamar. Our cabana (Marfil) was exactly what we were expecting - and hoping for. The room was clean and the bed relatively comfortable. We had very hot water in the shower and the cleaning woman would bring fresh towels, water glasses, and a 1.5L bottle of fresh water each day.... more

We stayed 2 nights in Tulum, after a week of convential luxury in Cancun and another resort near Playa del Carmen. We rented a car to get down to Tulum, which we used to stop by one of the mega shopping centers on the main highway on the way from Playa, and buy some water, snacks, etc. (I think that... more

We spent 7 nights at Posada Lamar in early December. This was our 2nd stay in the past 9 months. We enjoyed it just as much the 2nd time. We find the location and rooms perfect for us. We have traveled many places in the world and have stayed in all types of accomodations, Four Seasons to out of the... more

DO NOT STAY HERE. I'm convinced all the wonderful reviews on this site for Posada Lamar are written by the owners themselves, or something has changed between when they were written and we visited last week (mid-November 2007). I will say - the location is gorgeous, but you can't really credit the hotel with creating the beautiful beaches of Tulum.... more

I found this bungalow on trip advisor, and it was exactly like I hoped it would be....the bungalow and all the others ( there are only 6) are really cute, and well taken care of, you cant go wrong with any of them, there are a couple that are right in front on the beach, and a little more, but... more

Friendly and welcoming hosts, clean amenities, quiet beach, convenient location, beautiful views, and only one small insect in several days. As a returning traveler to Tulum, I hold Posada Lamar in the highest regard. My fiance and I stayed in Bungalow Rubi, and wouldn't have traded it for any other on the beach. It was by far the most private... more
