Romantic Hideaway Cabañas on the Ocean, Near Tulum.

This place is lovely. It was peaceful and relaxing. However it should be noted that the cabanas, casita and main house are close together. So if the other guests were to be a noisey, that could be a problem. Fortunately for us it was not the case. Also the bed was very hard. The snorkeling is not spectacle and the water is shallow. You need reef shoes for swimming. One has to arrange a boat to go to beyond the reef to see very much, which is the case for much of the area. Regardless of these minor drawbacks we very much enjoyed our stay.

There a several places to eat in walking distance that are excellent. We especially enjoyed our breakfasts at the Tankah Inn.

Getting to town was easy by taxi though not cheap. So having a car would be a plus.

The caretakers Felicia and Abraham were exceptionally nice.

For our needs this could not have been any better. A very comfortable cabana within feet of the ocean. Listen to the gentle sounds of the ocean at night and awake to the sound of tropical birds inviting you out to a perfect sunrise. A wonderful caretaker brought morning pastries and coffee and cleaned each day. Beautifully landscaped, furnished, and within walking distance excellent small restaurants. If you want down to earth simplicity in your accomodation this is the place. Cannot wait to return.

We have vacationed in the tropics many times in many locations, but no place compares to "Slice of Paradise". A cabana 30 feet or so from the shore, a beach with hammocks and palm trees for shade, easy access to snorkeling right off the shore, peaceful yet not totally isolated, clean but not ostentatious, one of the best cenotes nearby, several restaurants withing walking distance, and great hosts and staff and cat Gordo. My wife asked me with tears in her eyes if we would ever go back for our third visit, and, of course, we will sometime.

We had a fantastic stay. Thanks to Abraham and Felicia for their excellent care. What you should know - you are paying for an incredible location. The bay is beautiful - we snorkeled several times and saw a manta and many fish. Tulum is not far - we would drive in daily and have a late morning or afternoon meal - pick up snacks for dinner and breakfast items for the following day and just utilize the outdoor kitchen on the property (its basic but it does the job). This is a no fuss place in a beautiful setting. It's a place for quiet time, for being present and just reflecting on life. If you are high maintenance or high end you should stay away and leave this gorgeous place for folks who can roll with the small idiosyncrasies of the property. Some examples - we stayed in cabana one - the beds are super firm and the shower pressure is non-existent (but the outdoor shower works great!). The view is to die for and the cabana was roomier than we expected. All of this is to say - if you're the kind of independent traveller who can cope in a generous way with these small issues then you will be richly richly rewarded here. It's a special place and me, my husband and our teenager are forever grateful for our time here. Thank you so much.

I stayed at Slice of Paradise with my partner for 7 nights in January. We couldn’t have asked for better hosts. Art and June were so welcoming and the daily coffee and pastries outside our door were much appreciative. We loved watching the sunrise while enjoying our breakfast everyday. The cabana is roomy with two beds and a large bathroom. There is a shower in the cabana but it has low water pressure. I chose to use the outdoor shower, which was a unique experience. The property is located within a gated community. I always felt safe. The beach is well maintained and quiet. You do share the beach with the other cabana on site but there were other guests around for only part of our trip. There are some rental properties nearby but they have their own beach area. The property to our north had several guests that played loud music at times. We spoke to June and she took care of it so don’t be afraid to speak up about the noise. I would recommend bringing water shoes, as there are sharp rocks off the beach. The water stays shallow and calm for a ways out, and you can even snorkel in some of the shallow areas a couple hundred meters off shore. We rented a car, though the cabana is within walking distance of a couple restaurants. We enjoyed the food and service at Blue Sky Hotel, which is only a few minutes walk from the cabana. Casa Cenote is within walking distance as well. Tulum proper is about 15 minutes away by car. Look out for the speed bumps! We loved Tulum and were so pleased with our stay at Slice of Paradise. I was genuinely sad to leave and have been thinking about the next time we can return.
