Kanan Hotel, Tulum
If you’re on insta, I guarantee you’ve seen photos of this dinner spot above the jungle canopy on social media. It’s the most recognizable beach club on the walk down Tulum Beach with it’s large wooden structures and swings.
It’s a beautiful stay, in the middle of the iconic Tulum beach road. The narrow road opens up to this gorgeous entrance that makes you feel like you’re entering a treehouse. Highly recommend staying here. If you don’t wanna splurge though because of budget-try to get a spot for dinner. It’s so worth it and you’re going to regret not doing it. Trust me, I made the trip back to Tulum with Abhi just because I wanted that feeling of being next to the ocean in a jungle canopy.

Pool + Beach
Kanan has a gorgeous pool with amazing landscaping and constant drink service!! But let’s be real – the beachside is so hard to top. And that’s why you’re paying more than other places-beachside lounging. Like look at that view-unbeatable. I went by the pool to check it out and if the beach wasn’t 10 steps away, I would have stayed. It’s also great for when the beach club gets really crowded and you just need a minute to chill.
I love Kanan! The staff are so friendly and assist you so quickly. It’s a great spot to stay and so central to the other tourist spots that it was very easy to get around.
