#9 of 9 hotels in La Veleta & Region 15 by Axel's take. La Veleta & Region 15 is #4 of 7 places to stay in Tulum. The best hotels in La Veleta & Region 15, ranked · Where to stay in Tulum
Axel's take: 6.6/10
Generous space and pools, but upkeep makes this a cautious pick. a 4-star apartment-style hotel inland, not a beach resort, scored for what it is.
The Waves is a 4-star apartment-style hotel inland, with studios, larger apartments and selected private plunge pools. We'd consider it for space and self-catering rather than polished resort service. Overall ratings remain respectable—Booking.com shows 7.9 and Expedia 8.2—and satisfied guests praise roomy accommodation, quiet surroundings and the gym. Google reviews from early 2026 also describe enjoyable pools and comfortable stays.
The catch is inconsistent upkeep: Expedia, Tripadvisor and partner-site reviews repeatedly mention dirty linens, damp smells, poorly maintained pools or broken fittings. The rough, potholed access road makes this a poor choice for a walking-focused stay. A February 2026 guest also reported closed poolside food-and-drink service; confirm availability before booking. We'd skip it for a special occasion or dependable four-star service, and clarify breakfast inclusions and payment currency beforehand.
-
Best for: self-caterers prioritizing space; travelers with their own transport
-
Watch out for: inconsistent cleaning and maintenance; rough access road and inland location; breakfast and payment-currency disputes
-
Location: Inland, away from the beach; guests repeatedly describe a badly potholed approach road.
-
Rooms: Studios and apartments offer useful space; private pools depend on category, and kitchen supplies can be incomplete.
-
Cleanliness: Positive reports coexist with recurring complaints about linens, dampness, kitchenware and pool cleanliness.
-
Service: Some guests praise warm, helpful staff; others describe unhelpful responses when problems arise.
-
Amenities: Multiple pools and a gym are strengths; poolside food-and-drink service was reported closed in February 2026.
-
Fees and surprises: Confirm breakfast coverage and settlement currency: guests report basic included breakfasts, extras and unfavorable exchange-rate calculations.
