Eco Hostel Palapa in Tulum

We have been winging reservations for places to stay most of the trip, this one was no exception. We made a last minute reservation for this place online while in Playa del Carmen. I think this eco hostel in Tulum may have been the best place we stayed the whole trip. The hostel only had 4 to 5 hours of electricity a day. No running water except that you pumped or that which was gravity fed. There was a whole band of travelers there with us - Australians, Brits, Americans, Mexicans. Everyone ended up chilling out by the fire that night and cooking up some food. Pictured  is the palapa that we stayed in that night, one of about 8 that were available on site. This hostel also had its very own cenote in the back with kayaks to borrow for free. Everyone there was incredibly friendly and laid back. First experience shopping in a Mexican supermarket by myself too!
