2/10 Poor

Didn’t feel lucky staying here
Overall poor hygiene. Breakfast was included but didn’t look appetising and flies buzzing round the fruit, hot cakes were cold and not covered up. The ‘cook’ wasn’t trained. our private room was basic- nowhere to put stuff except on floor, nowhere to hang towel in bathroom. Friend in dorm had bed bugs.

The staff are all really great! That are a lot of fun and just really make very laid back vibe. They love to party with the guests and make you feel at home. I was not expecting much from the pictures before I arrived, but was pleasantly surprised by the accommodations. Don't get me wrong it is a cheap hostel so is not in the best condition, but it has a real charm about it and the staff make up for anything you might be disappointed about. I wasn't expecting AC in the dorm but sure enough they had it. The next time I travel to Tulum I definitely plan on staying at the Luck Traveler!

2/10 Poor

The hostel stated that it was all inclusive, but it wasn't. It was in the middle of nowhere, in an unsafe environment. There was no transportation into town in the evening. No gocery or restaurants in walking distance. Not everyone wants to ride a bike. Lanka was rude, and misrepresented the establishment. Raoul, also gave Expedia a hard time with contacting his business, so that I could eventually get my refund processed. I had trip insurance, and I am a gold member, so I knew I was going to get my refund. The only silver lining was Felipe. He heard about my dissatisfaction and offered to help. If it weren't for him, I would have had a miserable vacation. Do yourself a favor, pay a couple hundred dollars more, like I did, and stay in a nice hotel, closer to the center of town. You'll feel alot happier, and safer!

Large common and dining area, always enough space and seats for everyone, two bar set up means it doesn’t stay too noisy too late but also let’s you be social when you want to be. Great options for group excursions or to book with other tours for great prices - definitely recommend. The pool is not the greatest but would probably get used more just to quickly cool off- one word of preparation is that it’s a good idea to have your own supply of water just in case, one day it seemed delivery of water took a while and none was available for early risers (stores are nearby )

We did like the free tours they provide but that was about it. It is far from town so you have to walk quite a bit along the highway or take a colectivo. The place looks nothing like the pictures, it is really run down. I would not stay there again.

This hostel is a very chill place to relax and rest while touring the Tulum area. The hot tub was broken so that was disappointing but we thoroughly enjoyed our stay. the staff, especially Hugo was very friendly :)

The hostel was great! Felt more like a retreat then a hostel. They had a beautiful Common area with a bar, waiting pool and a really nice, fresh, buffet 3 times a day. There was beautiful murals and greenery everywhere that made you feel like you were sitting in nature. Very relaxing. The only thing that was slightly bothersome was that there is a very limited staff and people were bringing bikes back broken. The owners were awesome and made sure everyone was comfortable and taken care of. They must work 100 hours a week each!

6/10 Good

For a hostel, it is decent enough. I wanted a private room for myself and their private en-suite option can sleep 3 people (1 full sized bed and a twin). The room was just okay - The private is good value if traveling in a group of 2 or 3 and splitting the cost but not that great if you are solo and just want your own room. They make you give them your passport to hold during your stay which I didn’t like, and didn’t see the reason for doing. I’ve stayed at countless hostels and hotels over the years and have not had to hand over my passport before.

I really enjoyed the all-inclusive factor. Food was always good, especially the sushi. Drinks are great and the bartenders are very entertaining. Rooms are nice and clean and all have A/C. Staff are very kind and fun (they even organized a hostel group trip to a cenote), and the free bikes rentals are awesome. The property is very close to the ruins and the beach, which is great, and an ADO bus station.

Amazing!
I loved staying here! It was my very first hostel experience so now my standards are super high. It was beautiful and in a perfect location in Tulum, 10 mns walk from the Tulum ruins. Rooms were also great, strong AC (seriously I was so cold lol), each bed came with curtains and bathroom was really clean. Just bring your own hand soap. We get a bike to go around, plus food and drinks are also included all day long which was super great because it was free so you can save so much money on food during your trip. I'm not sure if it's always like this, but when I stayed there were a bunch of other travelers as well and we all ended up hanging out and partying all night long. If you wanna meet other travelers and people on the road, then definitely stay here! The staff is so friendly, and they organize tours each day. I only got to go to one of them which was to visit a beautiful beach about 20 minutes away to which they brought along drinks and sandwiches for us. Seriously, great value for your money!

In a good spot between both the beach and the town, easy to park and a good communal area. The staff were very friendly and the open bar is fun. The only comment I would make is that the breakfast started a bit late at 8.30 for days when we wanted to get a head start on the other tourists!

Get value for what you are paying for. The all inclusive food and drinks will help you save a lot of money! Every room has air conditioning which is a plus. All the staff were very polite and helpful. Everyday the staff takes you on a trip to either near by cenotes or the beach! This hostel is def worth the stay!!

Absolute hidden gem!
Staff is extremely polite and helpful. They organize daily excursions. Plenty of food and drinks. Every night is a themed dinner night and there even is a sushi bar included. The rooms were good size and a steal for the price. Only Complaint is the bar and dining facilities are outside so you are eaten alive by mosquitos! Def bring off with deet. Organic sprays won’t cover it :(

This hostel is good for the price you pay. All the staff is very friendly. The food is good. Don't forget your biodegradable bug spray since the insects want your blood the minute you step outside.The free bikes are nice to get around the area.

Stayed in a private room, nothing special but was perfect for our trip and our budget. Staff is incredibly welcoming and friendly. Walking distance to the beach & the ruins. Food was okay (I'm a very picky eater, and I always found enough to eat). Breakfast lunch and dinner and drinks all included, can't beat that. The only issue we had was that no one is at the desk late at night. Upon arrival we wandered around looking for someone until we finally saw our key sitting behind the desk & let ourselves in. Other than that, very nice & highly recommend for those on a budget.

Good location on a budget
If you are on a budget and looking for a centralized location to hop around the Riviera Maya, Lucky Traveler is great place. For my first hostel experience not a bad one. Staff os very nice and helpful. It’s great that they provide foos included in the room stay. If you can shed a extra buck to eat than, do so. Food is just OK.
