Great location, clean and spacious, secure, and private. We had a nice rooftop view of the ocean & the jungle - great for sunrise/sunset views or just chilling in the hammock to relax during the day. The host was friendly, always helpful, and made every effort to enhance our stay (including an impromptu nighttime invite to see nesting turtles). Nets around each bed and fans in every room helped keep us comfortable in the tropical climate (and it gets hot with plenty of bugs in the summer). Everything was solar powered and we had plenty of outlets in each room for our needs.

Nothing to dislike given our expectations and desires for such a stay!

If you like a well designed and elegant place without lots of bling this is perfect. Lovey rooms, nice staff and a quiet atmosphere amidst what feels like a very preppy expensive local scene. There is a great open air kitchen and the rooms are super clean.

It would have been good to be given more information on swimming. it is safe, are there undercurrents. Also a small brochure on places to go, cost effective ATM and cheap eats would have been good. The local area is brimming with restaurants, clubs and bars and they are more expensive than london. Best to travel into the town for food but its a long way. We cycled on the free bikes but wouldn’t want to cycle at night.

Playa Selva is a beautiful, quiet place at busy Tulum Beach. It has private parking and a shared kitchen with all facilities provided. Our cabin faced the beach with chic interiors and a small private terrace. The place is very clean with friendly staff. The property is very sustainable providing its own electricity with solar panels. It is situated within palm trees which are providing great shade and is home to many birds and raccoons. on the beach, there is plenty of sunbeds and shade. I couldn't recommend this place more and would definitely stay there again if returning to Tulum.

We absolutely loved our treetop Cabana, the outdoor kitchen cabana was so fun to cook in. The staff was amazing. Our host. Mauricio was wonderful. The staff works so hard to keep everything clean and perfect. The beach was so beautiful and the water was amazing.

Neighboring nightlife was a little loud

We had the big house in 3 floors with kitchen and a roof top with an amazing view. The owner, Maurizio was so kind and friendly. He made us feel comfortable and gave us many good suggestions on what to see in the Tulum area.

The situation of those little beach houses was well made. Directly connected to the sea and daily well mainted, the complex was clean, sweet and beautiful, as our house. People were nice and discrete, thank you.

We could have more little lightings in the house, as in the bathroom. That's all we miss a bit.

A complete Oasis! Down from the party zone, so it's quiet and has a perfect private beach. Close to some of the best casual and upscale dining experiences in the area. One of the best communal kitchens I've encountered in all of my travels around the world. Soooooo many amazing things about this property!!! I will always stay here from now on when I'm in Tulum.

Absolutely nothing!! Perfect place, unless you're looking for a party where you stay, and we weren't.

A friend and I came to Tulum for a week and are not the partying type of people. She found Playa Selva and we absolutely loved it as two single women enjoying a break from our respective businesses. It’s at a quieter spot along Tulum beach (rare to find this nowadays) and is the perfect relaxing escape right on the beach. It’s small and does not have a resort feel, much more a tropical getaway vibe. There is no A/C but that was not a problem and I am someone who usually has to have one. All of the staff, Pepe, Manuela (online with the booking), and Mauricio were beyond helpful and we even got a private tour of a couple Cenotes with Mauricio one day! age was an excellent guide and we had soooooo much fun!

The location was wonderful. Nestled in the jungle with the ocean at your doorstep. The staff were extremely friendly and helpful.

Louder music coming from other locations.
