Astral Tulum

Great glamping experience overall. Armando and Nacho were always helpful when needed. Armando arranged a sunset catamaran cruise for us and answered questions all week in English and Spanish (so we could practice). Our bubble was clean, air conditioned, close to the beach, and wonderful for looking up at the sky day or night. We had running hot & cold water, flush toilet, and a mini fridge. There was no microwave or coffee maker, but we knew this before arriving so we brought our own Keurig and pods. Opening times for, and availability of, coffee nearby were hit & miss from what we found so be forewarned. We had a complimentary rechargeable flashlight, battery powered lantern, and telescope in our bubble along with two bottles of filtered water which would be refilled each day if we drank them. Cozy is the best way to describe the bathroom. There is no door, only a walk-around wall which has a mirror above the sink and small countertop on one side, and the shower and toilet on the other. Standing inside the shower I measured 29" width and depth, which felt smaller than an old-school phone booth. As proof, the showers have custom doors which slide to/from one corner, since there's not enough room for a swinging shower door out of or into the shower on any side. Size notwithstanding, there were two shower heads - one fixed about 6'9" high and the other on a flexible hose with an adjustable holder that could be set from about 4' to 6' high. Our bottles of shampoo and soap were refilled every day by room service. No matter how skinny you are, your butt cheek will be up against the exterior of the glass shower wall whilst sitting upon the throne to do your business. To that end, since there's no bathroom door I suggest air freshening spray. As an alternative, and what I did to maintain domestic harmony, was to put my liquids in the bubble's toilet and my solids in the public toilet stalls for the bar between our bubble and the beach - within 25 yards of our door. It was the beach equivalent of me going to the lobby restroom in a brick & mortar hotel for the same reason. Do not put toilet paper in any toilet, especially the bubble's. Due to its rather remote location, I don't think a plumber's response to a clogged toilet would be quick. We could hear music and people's voices from the bar of an adjoining property, but never past about 9PM. Overnights were very quiet. Almost every morning, we noticed a commercial truck with potable water, propane, or septic pumping services doing what they do at Astral. Out the airlock door of our bubble, named Aquarius, it was a 50 yard walk to the beach. We could turn left or right and find restaurant options in both directions with an easy walk of just a few minutes. We rented a car for our stay in Tulum, and parking at Astral was private and gated. During the day and evenings we had to leave our key with the front desk so the car could be jockeyed around other cars when necessary, but that was never an issue
