Azulik

This hotel is more than a romantic destination — it’s a sanctuary. From the moment you arrive, the atmosphere invites you to slow down. The jungle, the soft lighting at night, the sense of privacy and intimacy — everything feels intentional and sacred. But what truly made this experience exceptional was the yoga and sound healing. The morning yoga practice was absolutely beautiful. The teacher was not just guiding poses — she was guiding presence. Her energy was calm, grounded, and deeply attentive. She created a space that felt safe, supportive, and transformative. It wasn’t about performance. It was about connection — breath, body, awareness. Every movement felt purposeful and aligned with the surrounding nature. The sound healing ceremony was so powerful that we attended it twice. The experience was immersive and profound. The vibrations felt like they were moving through every layer — calming the mind while awakening something deeper. Time seemed to dissolve. It was both grounding and expansive at the same time. The cacao ceremony was heart-opening and intimate — gentle yet meaningful. And the temazcal was intense in the best way — cleansing, releasing, almost like a rebirth experience. This place offers more than relaxation. It offers depth, healing, and true reconnection — with yourself, with nature, and with the person you’re sharing it with. If you’re looking for romance with meaning, this is it.

This is a beautiful resort with a thoughtful design. There are so many positives that out weighed the few negatives. The check in was quick and easy. They do not ask for a credit card to hold cause everything is pay as you go. You can’t charge food or drinks to the room. The concierge Stacy led us on a tour which included a spiritual cleansing ceremony and then a short tour of the grounds. When we arrived at our room we were amazed at the beauty and uniqueness of the room. We booked a sky view villa which faces the ocean and our room was a top floor room. There are a few stairs to climb and the path from the resort entrance to the room is tricky with the unusual round wood logs used for the path. We got used to it. This room does have air conditioning, a shower and two electric light switches. The rest of the lighting at night is candlelight which you must light unless you ask the concierge to have that done for you. We loved the unusual stone tub and rainfall shower that uses natural cenote water. There isn’t a dedicated space to have your suitcase and the place for hanging clothes had 2 hangers and maybe would hold 5-7 garmets anyway. The view was amazing and the sunrise is beautiful. The small toilet area is in the room in a large wooden enclosure. There’s not much privacy. The rooms around you can very easily see into part of each others rooms but the bed area is not seen. We did have a broken board on the deck and the guys fixed it immediately. There isn’t a front desk to call if you have a problem, you have to message your concierge. The complimentary breakfast is very limited! They do have an amazing menu if you wanted to pay . The beach area is small and the covered beds fill quickly as they also allow outside guests in with day passes. The food and drinks at the beach are good. Again I don’t like having to pay each and every time I get something to eat or drink at a resort. My wife visited the spa and loved the Azulik signature treatment. Had to pay for that right then too. The nightly party on tue rooftop is a fun experience the first time and afterwards it got old with so many outside people coming in and the loud music and multiple blowing of the conch shell was tiresome.I understand this is likely a money maker and draws people to their resort. Overall this is a great experience and you have to know the openness of the rooms and the little amenities that they don’t have of your used to a modern resort. We really loved it and would come back.
