Five stars for strong AF drinks and some of the friendliest service we received in Tulum. We had a post-beach snack here and to be honest it was just okay, but the rooftop jungle vibes and aforementioned drink/service sitch made this a totally fabulous experience. Mamasan is a gorgeous two level bar and restaurant PLUS a boutique-y kind of hotel with tree houses and the like. I'd look into staying here if it meant waking up to these margs on the regular! We totally loved the mezcal margs and would probably just order those if we returned. We also tried the Maguito cocktail that I was less wild about, although the drink itself was gorgeous. The chips and tapenade are a-okay but a super small serving, so I'd suggest ordering more if you're hungry. They aren't currently doing happy hour but they said they're starting one soon, so look out for that. Free wifi too! Loved this pretty spot in the heart of the Tulum playa. read more

We have a reservation to stay at the hotel when we went to check in the girl said they were upgrading us however I already paid the highest price offered for the canopy room / sadly the air does not work it was 100* F or 38*C in the room !!! The are did not work we waited an hour running the cooler with no change - so we were offered a different room the temp was better f 36* C is better!!! This property is run down dirty and unsafe to stay how can anyone safely stay in a 100*F hotel?!!! Now they are refusing to refund us and threatening fees to cancel!!! We have not canceled yet and stayed elsewhere for our safety - in shock they refuse even a partial refund and are saying I'll be charged if I cancel read more

Wasn't a bad spot! The drinks were on point! OMG they were good and the ceviche. The food could have stayed in the back. They didn't tell us they don't take cards only cash. I don't know if we were charged correctly! Maybe we were, but the food on the strip is just overpriced! I would have appreciated if we knew they only took cash. Good vibes though... place was empty to be honest. We paid $90 plus for appetizers read more

Found this place on Expedia! Glad I did! The place was very unique. The rooms were clean for what was expected. The mosquitos are the worse here so make sure to bring spray, especially if you book a bungalow. We first had a bungalow and had to switch because the ac does not cool the room as it does with a solid roof. The room had 360 windows and views of a wooded courtyard which I found to be very zen like. The bed was average. The shower had a waterfall head and the water was hot! Great plus! There's a rooftop bar which serves organic products! The staff were extremely friendly and nice! They really made the experience! read more

This place deserves every single star. We found this place originally on Booking.com and I'm so glad we stayed here. It was magical. The location was absolutely perfect, right in front of Taboo and Tantra beach clubs. You could walk to some the best restaurants in Tulum. The staff was attentive kind and genuine. I know because I unfortunately got food poisoning. The offered to go the pharmacy for me and made me teas smoothies and homemade remedies. This place was so magical that my boyfriend proposed to me here. Carlos and Stephanie and the rest of the staff, thank you for an unforgettable experience. The GEODOME we stayed in was far and away from all the noise, we slept great! The AC worked perfectly and it was incredibly clean. We will definitely stay here again when visiting Tulum read more

We were in Tulum for our honeymoon, and, in planning, I had thought we would go to all the places people talk about when they talk about Tulum: Hartwood, Casa Banana, Gitano, Cetli, etc. But after being sent away from one restaurant for not having a reservation and experiences the crowds and prices at the others, we decided to try different restaurants! Mamasan was one of those restaurants. We chose it because it was just down the street from our hotel (maybe a three-minute walk), and, when we had passed by it several times heading to town, it looked beautiful. And it was beautiful. The top floor was surrounded by bougainvillea. And the food was delicious, from start to finish. They brought us a free starter that was quite wonderful. Followed by two tacos as an appetizer (one fried fish, one fried shrimp), and two entrees - grilled tuna steak with mango sauce and Vodka pasta with seafood. Both were delicious. And our dessert, chocolate mousse with fruit squares, impressed even this girl that isn't too fond of chocolate! The service was also wonderful. And they had beers and tequila and mescal (we stuck with beer this night). It ended up being a wonderful, surprising, delicious meal. One that I would have again! read more

Some of the cheapest, yummiest, and healthiest food in Tulum! Well worth a stop in! We stayed in the hotel and enjoyed breakfast, lunch, and drinks here and nothing disappointed. High level mixology and delicious ceviche! Ask for their special hot sauce! read more

We stayed at this vibey hotel and 10/10 would stay there again during a cat 2 hurricane. The bungalows were secure despite winds blowing in from every direction, we had some water seep in but it was fine, the hotel and restaurant lost wifi for a day, and hotel and roads were cleaned up by the following day. We had a few drinks before the storm hit - Berry Fizz, Kibok Kih (friend got it twice), and this egg white cocktail, all good with a generous pour. We also ordered the vegan pasta and bruschetta (I think), bruschetta was ok but the vegan pasta was bomb. Highly recommend even if you are not vegan, had to fight my friend for the last bite. The staff is great, friendly and attentive. There are a lot of mosquitos but you are in the jungle so that is life the rooftop seating is pretty cute too! Sorry for the bad photos, they were all screenshotted from videos. read more

Bro this place has weak ass tacos. I've made it a point to eat everything in sight while in Tulum, and these tacos are on the bottom of the food chain. The octopus taco is aight but the other two are pathetic. The shrimp taco has TWO (2) shrimp. GTFO. I've had shrimp tacos all week and this is some bullshit. read more

Mamasan and their staff have been completely uncommunicative and made promises they haven't kept for a big event. If you value working with professionals who are ethical, I recommend taking a hard pass on Mamasan. read more

Please be very careful when thinking about staying here. We had a power outage along with no running water and to top it off there was a major incident that happened on site. A woman was attacked and in the early morning was yelling, screaming along with knocking on everyone's door. We felt very unsafe and have no sleep at all, the uncertainty of not knowing what happened and not having any light. It was pitch black all around us and with no air we were so hot and uncomfortable. We had to check out by the time the sun came out due to being so uncomfortable with the heat. We reached out to management and they refused to refund us at least one night. We were a group of 8 with 4 rooms and we think you should all save your time go somewhere else read more

We came here every night since we were staying in their treehouses. Their drinks were the best we had in tulum beach strip. The banana one is amazing. BUT why made it even better was the staff. My sister and I were there one night and these two drunk men came in and sat with us and the staff was quick to check if we felt comfortable or needed anything. They ended up making sure we got to our stay safely. They were so great here. I definitely recommend. read more

Absolutely loved this place. One of my favorite breakfasts in town. So many gluten free and vegan options and everything is organic and yummy. Their coffee and mocha is to die for. read more

Came by because their social media person kept commenting on my friends posts and my friend was won over. We came by around 1pm and the place was dead. In fact, we were the only people there. The staff was friendly enough, the food came out quickly and being the only guests, we were given plenty of attention. For our one hour lunch, nobody came by. We had a few tacos - the fish was good, the steak one came with blue cheese and was a HUGE miss. Grilled shrimp was good as well, but nothing super special. I believe we ordered a ceviche and felt like it was just OK. Overall, good for a quick meal but maybe not something I'd go out of my way for. read more

The drinks on the rooftop bar are amazing! They also had the best music (psytrance) of all the nearby bars which was definitely a plus. If you come at night be prepared for mosquitos. They burn copal to help, but it's only so effective. read more

great tulum style spot . did not eat here but did have two amazing drinks (and we live in vegas ) so that's saying something . they have a rooftop bar but it was a little hot for that on the day we were there . we sat in the jungle ish dining room . the drinks as stated were really really tasty . i recommend this spot as a stop in tulum . the menu did look good we were just going to eat sushi next door at ukami . read more

Drinks here are amazing I had the tree house treat and it was sooooo good Cute rooftop area, friendly staff, and the music has a cute tropical vibe read more

The woman working the Instagram account for them should get five stars as she was able to lure us from another beach club in the area on our way back to the town. She scoped out my other posts in the area and then kept up commenting with me to get me to come by for a drink and appetizer. The place is pretty cool, but was dead when we were there. The rooftop bar is nice, but the staff took awhile to get us drinks/food and we were the only people in the place. That was a bit odd. I would think that you'd be able to get ceviche out fairly quickly, AKA uncooked fish you add lime juice to and voila it's your meal. But that took over 20 mins to get to us and let me say again, we were the only people there. The cocktails we had were good and the ambiance was good. Would love to check the place out on a busier night. read more

We happened upon Mamasan while riding bikes and the hostess called us over to check it out. What a nice surprise! They have a 2nd floor dining area and bar with great music playing, candle light and twinkle lights, a VERY impressive cocktail list, and some of the best appetizers we've had. Excellent service, the apps we had I would go back and get today if we had time. Mussels in a spicy sauce, tuna tartare, some delicious potato/spinach balls, another plate with fresh vegetables and octopus. Just delicious flavors! Also worth noting they are carrying some really nice wine from Baja California and have excellent mezcal cocktails. Overall one of our faves so far in Tulum, and after 2 visits in as many years, we've tried several restaurants. Tulum offers some excellent food at many of the restaurants, and we were all very impressed by Mamasan. read more

My wife and I decided to stop at Mamasan for a rooftop sunset drink and dinner on the beach road. We were welcomed in with open arms and were treated to a lovely experience by Enrique and Alex. Food was delicious, and the drinks, well, probably the two of the most addicting drinks I've been made. There is no drink menu so prepare for great recommendations by the mixologist. Not a crowded place, so you will feel the attention and love. Open up a bit and get to know those who look after you and the experience will be that much better. They also have a great Spotify playlist, check it out ;-) read more

I stopped by every morning/afternoon during my stay. Their juices & smoothies always hit the spot! Jorge suggested his favorite Gold smoothie and it does not disappoint! I've also had the Blue smoothie and Yellow juice. I'm back home now and find myself craving all of them so much. It's a cute spot too! Good chill music with lounge seating facing the street for people-watching. read more

Visited this jungle rooftop on a Friday night and we had the place to ourselves. The best thing that could have happened! The staff was very welcoming and attentive. There is no cocktail menu; the bartender does it all well. The music was exactly my vibe (that night they were playing alternative rock but I'm sure they change playlists according to how big the crowd is). We ordered the shrimp tacos and they were great. Wish we could have stopped by again before we left Tulum. read more

The rooftop is such a gem! And the music was just perfect for a chill night with yummy cocktails. The place is perfect to set the tone for a great night in Tulum. You can relax, listen to music and see the moon and the stars. Our favorites were the grilled octopus tostada and the laze jane cocktail. Jorge was very attentive and helpful with all of our questions & very informative about the menu. This rooftop jungle is a must see! read more

Delicious, fresh, flavorful food and incredible cocktails! Our favorite dinner in Tulum hands down - better prices and flavors than many of the big spots. We had a grilled red snapper that was seriously to die for and strong super tasty mezcal cocktails. Very nice to be above the jungle canopy with a view of the stars (and no mosquitos!). A must if you're in the area!! read more

Decent drinks, shitty service. The waiter was pretty rude and unwelcoming. The rooftop is nice but you can't see the sunset.

Not so good, though could have been time of day 9.30pm. Music so loud you couldn't speak across the table. Lighting non existent so you needed cell phone light to read menu. Food arrived. Very uninspiring and again, you needed a cell phone light to see what you're eating...turned light if and left to imagination. Great potential. Poorly executed. Not going back read more

My family and I had the good fortune to dine at this fantastic restaurant while we were on vacation in Tulum. We ordered basically the entire menu and every dish was masterfully crafted and cooked perfectly. The music was excellent (especially if you're like me and don't care much for mariachi) and the ambience was very cozy. The only constructive criticism I can give is that the chairs could be a bit more comfortable, but there were also nice soft sofas available if you're looking to relax for a while! read more

The management constantly changes and their manager is unreliable. Not hospitable, not accommodating, made me feel very unwelcome. The rooftop looks beautiful but infested with mosquitos, does not spray, food is on the saltier side but plated well. read more

Me and my best friend was recently there for our birthdays. Our flight got delayed and we caught a flat tire on the 2.5 ride there , but as soon as we arrived we were greeted with open arms and the host said we were waiting for you! Now my disclaimer is we stayed in a treehouse because we chose to meaning this is not no luxury 5 star Waldorf Astoria . This is a very personable , down to earth and clean "home" with a group of staff who truly cares for you! The drinks were amazing! The shrimp was to die for! I didn't like the cocoa ice cream but that's my fault because I don't like cocoa but wanted to try something different ! One day I was short cash for my taxi and the owner helped me by giving me some money. Not every taxi drivers has US dollar currency. I will def stay here again if given the chance . It's also walking distance to many other great restaurants! Great place thank you for treating us like family! read more
