About this property

Designer Penthouse | Jungle View + Private Pool

Custom-designed three-bedroom penthouse on the edge of Tulum, overlooking the protected canopy of Tulum National Park. The home sleeps up to eight guests in three king bedrooms and two living-room sofa beds, with three bathrooms, a full kitchen, air conditioning, indoor gathering space, and a rooftop terrace with a private plunge pool.

The layout works well for families, small groups, and longer stays. A dedicated workspace, in-home laundry, parking, keypad self check-in, outdoor dining, and a barbecue make the penthouse practical as well as distinctive. The multi-level layout, rooftop, and open pool require close adult supervision of children.

The property is on the edge of town rather than in a secluded jungle. Playa Pescadores and the ruins are about 10 minutes by bike or car and roughly 25–30 minutes on foot, depending on conditions. Taxis and travel times vary.

The home is professionally managed. Your dedicated concierge can help arrange paid transfers, tours, restaurant reservations, private-chef service, massage, or yoga, subject to availability. Optional services cost extra. Tulum can experience temporary power or water interruptions.
Our prices include all fees. No hidden fees.

Our family consists of six adults. The property was a great fit as all couples had their own bedrooms and bathrooms. Great location! We rented bikes for the whole stay and biked everywhere. Valeria is a wonderful concierge, who responded in minutes and takes good care of you.

Great house in a central location

Clem and Pascaline were amazing hosts and helped plan our trip - from excurisions, to restaurant recommendations to bike rentals, taxi services and more. Our family of 5 enjoyed the home and loved that we were in a "jungle/treehouse setting". The house is very quiet yet located 15 minutes via bike to the beach and a 10 minute walk to town. There is a great guide book in the home for restaurants and things to do which was extremely helpful. The home has everthing you need - cooking staples, coffee, laundry detergent, games, beach towels and more. The view from the rooftop pool is breathtakine for sunrise and sunset. We have already recommented this home to family and friends.

Phenomenal property, amazing views, great value

Nocturna at Mun Tulum was a fantastic property for our family. Where else can you find 3 bedrooms + 3 bathrooms and a private pool! The unit is gorgeous, spacious, and private. Definitely a great value. Property management is wonderful. Clem and Pauli can arrange for transportation to/from the airport and were very responsive to any needs. Nearby major grocery store is a 10-minute walk. However, getting closer to shops, beach clubs, and restaurants require a cab ride which are readily available but need to negotiate to avoid high fees. Definitely a 10/10!

Love the roof top!

Yes, this place is not as "new" anymore, as the pics suggest. But to me, the wear-and-tear on it are pretty typical for a coastal property (about 1 mile from coast). This place is as close to town as you can get but still feel like you are staying in the jungle. We rented bikes which made it a 5 minute ride to town. If walking, it'd be 15 minutes, but all is flat. Very close to Tulum ruins and Jaguar Park to access the beach without paying a high price to use a beach club. The top deck with shaded seating plus the dipping pool was our favorite place to hang out. And it offered a peek-a-boo view of ruins and ocean. Everything was clean and in working order. Easy check in. 24 hour security and always felt safe. We had no issues while here.

I’m giving this property 5 stars primarily because of the concierge Val. She was OUTSTANDING!!!! Val’s communication was top notch. She was very responsive, she gave great recommendations and she arranged professional transportation to everywhere we needed to go. She was also very sweet, as she checked in with us often to see if we were enjoying ourselves & if we needed anything. The property itself was safe & beautifully decorated but it could definitely use some tlc. There were a lot of noticeable stains on the furniture, linens & bathroom towels & we lost hot water the 2nd day. Also, not sure if we missed it in the description but there is no elevator so we had to walk up several flights of long stairways with our luggage to get to the penthouse. Overall, the place wasn’t as luxurious as we thought it would be but it was nice & worth what we paid. And again, Val is PHENOMENAL…she alone is worth the 5 star review!

excellent choice for non-hotel strip

First, when you book, Clem sends you instant information. She booked our transfers from the airport in Cancun, roundtrip and met us at the condo. She took her time and showed us everything. The place is as described. the rooftop plunge pool and outdoor sitting area are worth renting. The unit is well equipped with modern touches. It is in smaller complex that has a guard stationed outside. Juan was very friendly and knew us instantly. If you have never been to Tulum, this condo is not on the strip of hotels at the beach. It is about 2-3 blocks walking from old down town. Riding bikes is the best way to get around. There were many restaurants in old town that you can walk to or in the am ride to get espresso drinks and pastries. There is a Starbucks within a short walk if you prefer. The ruins and beach can be walked to [about 1.5 miles or 35 min or biked to in about 10 minutes. You can also take a longer ride to a different beach. Either beach was fantastic, clean and no worries on safety. You can ride to a cenote in about 15 minutes. My only negative comment is that the bikes need to be updated but with that said Clem stepped up and brought rental bikes while they were fixing their bikes. Clem and the owner were very easy to get a hold of. She had recommendations for restaurants and even made reservations when we first arrived. If you go find Tulum pan for breakfast and don't miss the local taco truck at the corner with the grocery store as they serve the best chicken tacos in Tulum. Thanks for the enjoybale weekend

Great Place to enjoy Tulum

The apartment is lovely and well located to access beaches, commodities, Tulum downtown and ruins with bikes. The pool on the roof top is an amazing idea and the view on the jungle is stunning. Clemence who welcomed us and helped us was very friendly and gave us lots of good tips to enjoy the best restaurant or beaches. Thanks a lot!

About the host

Hosted by Ben Gass

Host profile image
I love creating beautiful spaces and sharing them with people. Nothing makes my day like a guest telling me what a great experience they had while staying with us, or how much they like the design of one of my vacation rentals. We now have a small portfolio of vacation rentals to share with design-conscious travelers in Tulum and soon in Joshua Tree, CA. We very much hope we will have the opportunity to host you!

In addition to vacation rentals, I run a strategy consulting business called Conspire for Good, where we help progressive organizations and social impact companies make the world a better place. When not at work, you can find me playing swing jazz on the guitar or on the road exploring new cities, usually staying in vacation rentals :)
