The Sunday salsa lesson is from 6-7 pm. Then the band starts playing at 8 pm. Instructor was great and funny. The band was very good, plays anything from salsa to meringue, bachata and Latin hits. It's very crowded. If you plan to have dinner there make sure you have a reservation. We had to wait for an hour to... More

We stayed at LaZebra in the Master Suite on the ocean. The view is priceless, the bed was very comfortable, and while there was no AC, the ocean breeze and fans in the rooms was enough to keep us comfortable. The staff is superb and did their best to make our stay wonderful. They really look out for their guests... More

This is our 3rd time in Tulum and we went for our wedding week. We love Le Zebra and although we didn't end up having our wedding at their facility, we did have many of our family and friends stay there and worked with them to plan excursions for our group. Our requirements for the wedding didn't fit into the... More

We stayed here for 2 nights with our 7 month old last week in bungalow #4. While the beach is amazing and the staff service stellar, I did have a couple minor issues with our stay. The bungalow's do not have AC and our ceiling fan barely circulated the air. #4 is on the beach but its set further down... More

Thank you for your feedback, we are glad you enjoyed your stay with us and are sorry about the wait on the fan. As mentioned in our website, all our rooms have fans but none are yet provided with a/c due to the electricity situation here in the beach area. All the hotels work with solar panels and generators, we... More

The Best Beach we've ever seen. Our Mexican tour took place in September 2010. Me & my husband travelled all over the contry, and in the end of our journey we needed to relax on the beach. That's why we stay at La Zebra. Well, on our opinion, this hotel is really gorgeous and I'll explain why. The main reason... More

Spent time there for a friends wedding, I would love to go back and sway in the hammock, eat breakfast by the beach and wake up to the birds. Some nights they have dancing by the beach. The entrance is very vague and we were not sure where was the office but they greeted us inside and carried our luggage... More

This is a very nice place. The rooms are clean and well layed out. Please keep in mind that there is no airconditioning, the bathroom is separated from the room by saloon style doors (so much for privacy) and you can't put any paper down the toilet. The toilet thing was the biggest drawback. It's really a turnoff sitting next... More
