Food Scene

Tulum has a surprisingly delicious array of restaurants
Go early...around 6ish and sit at the bar. We’ve done this without reservations. It’s delicious and there’s a reason why there is always a wait.

Walking Distance - this is a 7 minute walk from the JUNGLE LOUNGE. The place to go for a Smoothie, Açaí Bowl, Kumbucha, etc. It can be fairly busy so be prepared for a wait...but, it’s worth it!

New location across from Amansala. Outside seating with a great back area for dessert and coffee. Make sure you save room for dessert and coffee because they roast, grind and brew the coffee with love. It takes a while to get you java...but, worth the wait.

Sightseeing

I prefer these ruins to the ruins in tulum. There is more to see and you can walk up and go into them. If you go make a stop in Coqui Coqui.

Everything Else

A great option if you want delivery to the penthouse is Tomato.mx, its like Grubhub for Tulum. I’ve used it before and they are fairly quick. A great option if you don’t feel like going out to eat. They will deliver to the front of the building. https://tomato.mx
