Sana Tulum

Sana Tulum is on the Caribbean beachfront in Tulum's hotel zone, at kilometre 10 on the Tulum to Boca Paila road. It is an adults-only hotel with a Moroccan look throughout, from arches and carved screens to touches of gold, and the suites sit among tropical gardens.

Several suites have their own pool or jacuzzi, and the open-air living spaces make it easy to slow down between events. The restaurant serves Mediterranean food in a Moroccan-style room with views of the sea, the beach club has a Moroccan bar and shaded seating, and the oceanfront rooftop pool hosts yoga and meditation. Full private buyouts are on offer.

Ceremonies at Sana face the Caribbean. Around the vows, the hotel offers rooftop dinners, long tables by the water and smaller gatherings, and it scales from an intimate group to a full private takeover if you want the place to yourselves. Kosher weddings are offered, and there is a synagogue on site.

Events can also use the rooftop or the beach club, one for a welcome evening and one for a farewell lunch, so a whole weekend can happen without leaving the hotel. The website does not publish capacities, named ceremony spots or the music curfew, so ask the team about each of these, and about a legal or symbolic ceremony for UK couples.

Because Sana is adults only, check your guest list before you commit. The hotel does not publish its room count or airport distances, so ask the team how many suites a buyout covers and how long to allow for the transfer.

For a larger group, ask them to recommend other hotels along the same beach road. On site, guests have the rooftop pool, the beach club and yoga and meditation sessions on the roof, plus suites where some can cool off in a private pool or jacuzzi. It is a calm base for a long weekend of small events.
