Monte Uzulu Boutique Hotel

Monte Azulu is an architectural gem! Very comfortable rooms that are beautifully designed, offering a modern feel while being respectful and reflective of the local traditions. Large folding doors with shutters open onto a deck, providing an amazing jungle / ocean view (I was in an upper suite) and a refreshing breeze. (Bonus: they make their own line of bath products, which I thoroughly enjoyed.) Alan, the owner/host, was very attentive and helpful. He provided excellent restaurant recommendations and promptly answered all my questions. He didn’t hesitate to assist with purchases I needed to make and even helped source local crafts I had requested. It’s important to note that the entire area is built on a hill. Unless you’re staying beachfront, your accommodations will likely have some. I come from a city that’s basically flat, so I took my time and adjusted within a few days. If you’re seeking a quieter atmosphere with access to excellent restaurants, food (pop-up farmer truck/stand - brilliant!), and beautiful beach, San Agustinillo is the perfect choice. It’s an excellent alternative to Mazunte—which is fun, but bigger and busier—yet still within walking distance if you choose to explore.

I highly recommend this beautiful and charming Property in the heart of the Jungle ! Such a warm and personalised welcome, exceptional quality of service ! Incredible attention to detail, eco friendly . The experience is magical ! Thanks a lot to Alan and his team !!

Very beautiful and comfy hotel. Everything was perfect! We felt like at home. Location is great, 3 minutes away from the beach. Bars and restaurants are around the corner. Breakfast at the hotel is delicious. We will for sure come back soon!

We loved the hospitality of our host, the breakfast every morning was outstanding and the location was perfect. We will definitely return. It was also easy for non Spanish speaking tourists to navigate. Very walkable to beach, restaurants and shopping

I almost don’t want to leave a review because this place feels like a hidden gem worth keeping secret. Staying here truly feels like being a guest in a friend’s home. From the moment we arrived, the charming owner greeted us at the curb, warmly welcomed us, and gave us a wonderful introduction to the area, instantly making us feel at ease. The rooms, perched high on the hill with breathtaking ocean views, feel like a private sanctuary. Falling asleep with the windows open to the soothing sounds of the jungle and distant waves is pure magic. Each morning began with a simple yet delicious breakfast, setting the perfect tone for a day of exploring the town. It’s not a luxury hotel in the traditional sense, but the tranquil simplicity, location, and staff makes it an enriching experience of its own. Stay here before Saint Augustinillo becomes the next Tulum ;)

I spent 4 nights in Monte Uzulu. It's up a series of steps from the small main street of San Augstinillo and my balcony had a beautiful view of the ocean and deep green trees and vegetation. The hotel and rooms are beautifully designed. Unfortunately, I was ill for much of my stay (nothing to do with this hotel stay) so I didn't get to explore as much as I would have liked, but the hotel staff (special shout out to Israel), and their on-call doctor, took very good care of me. I was able to order delicious room service dinners, and when the restaurant was closed, the hotel staff went very much out of their way finding out what I'd like, finding a restaurant open serving that food, and bringing it to me. I'd love to come back another time when I'm fully well to experience all the hotel and San Augustinillo has to offer.
