Find the best Tulum all-inclusive resorts where turquoise waters lap at sugar-soft sand, ancient Mayan ruins whisper secrets of a bygone era and all your meals, drinks and activities are included in one amazing package. This boho-chic beach paradise helps you take relaxation and rejuvenation to a whole new level.
Why you’ll love Tulum
Sure, Cancun has its glitz, and Playa del Carmen boasts its charm, but Tulum offers its famous stunning white-sand beaches, crystal-clear turquoise waters and lush jungle landscapes. It has more than just natural beauty, however.
This vibrant town is also home to fascinating ancient Mayan ruins, vibrant street art and a thriving culinary scene. Whether you’re looking to relax on the beach, explore ancient history or sample delicious Mexican cuisine, Tulum has something for everyone.
Why you should book an all-inclusive resort
Vacations are supposed to be stress-free, not budget-busting. All-inclusive resorts take the pressure off by covering everything from gourmet meals and cocktails to exciting activities and entertainment, so all you have to worry about is packing for the beach.
You can eat when you want and generally have multiple options, from bountiful buffets to specialty restaurants where you never need to take out your wallet. Couple that with so many activities on-site, and there is something for everyone in your group to enjoy.
Best adults-only all-inclusive Tulum resorts
If you’re planning a vacation for you and your love, you probably want to head to an adults-only resort where the focus is more on adult activities, and, frankly, you don’t have to see or hear children. Whether you are looking for a quiet retreat or an active vacation, these are the best adults-only all-inclusive Tulum resorts to consider for your next trip.
Kore Tulum Retreat & Spa Resort
Located along Tulum’s pristine white-sand beach, Kore Tulum Retreat & Spa Resort offers an intimate and luxurious getaway for adults seeking relaxation and romance with just 94 suites. Most all-inclusives are outside the Tulum hotel zone, and this is one of the few within it.
The resort features elegant suites with private balconies or terraces, as well as a range of upscale amenities, including a full-service spa, infinity pool and gourmet restaurants serving up delicious cuisine. Be sure to take advantage of the free bike rentals to explore the area. Guests can also enjoy yoga classes, beachfront massages and evening entertainment under the stars. It’s no wonder why this location is considered one of the best Tulum all-inclusive resorts.
Bahia Principe Sian Ka’an
Situated about 25 minutes from Tulum proper, Bahia Principe Sian Ka’an is a tranquil oasis nestled within the lush Riviera Maya jungle. This adults-only resort offers spacious suites with modern amenities and private balconies or terraces overlooking the tropical gardens or golf course.
Guests can relax by the pool, indulge in spa treatments or enjoy a round of golf at the nearby championship course. Though this resort is set back from the ocean, you have access to an exclusive off-site beach through the free resort shuttle.
With multiple dining options ranging from international buffets to gourmet a la carte restaurants, there’s something to satisfy every palate at Bahia Principe Sian Ka’an. You can also access the other resorts in the Bahia Principe complex, though they do not have access to this resort.
