We had a group of 12 stay and it was absolutely amazing! Alain was amazing and very responsive. The villa is an absolute dream! One of the most amazing pools to lounge in. You will not regret staying in this amazing villa!

Alain was a phenomenal host and concierge. The private Chef’s dinners were spectacular.

This house is absolutely stunning, the photos truly don’t do it justice. It was so beautiful that I could have easily spent all six days just relaxing at the house. There were 15 of us, and we all had way more space than we expected. The house is enormous, impeccably clean, and the location is perfect. It’s situated in a peaceful area with minimal traffic but just a short drive to the main town and all the attractions. The standout feature of our stay was the exceptional service from the concierge, Alain. From the moment we booked, he went above and beyond to make our trip unforgettable. Even a month before our arrival, he was helping us plan our itinerary, make reservations, and ensure we maximized our time. During our stay, he was incredibly responsive, often replying to our messages within a minute. No request was too big or small, he made everything happen seamlessly. Honestly, I would come back to this house just because of how incredible Alain’s service was. This place was a gem

Al was an absolutely amazing host from start to finish. From the moment we booked until the day we left Tulum, he went above and beyond to make our stay perfect. He helped us arrange everything—our private chef, excursions, dinners, transportation—and even provided great restaurant recommendations. He was incredibly responsive and accommodating, especially with our large group of 13. Al truly made our experience 100x better, and I can't thank him enough for everything. Highly recommend!

Beautiful villa, but misses the mark. Surrounded my construction, I was woken up by the sound of a chisel every morning. There were cockroaches and scorpions in my room. Pool was okay, a little cold, and the second smaller pool was half full half the time. Location is quite far from the main areas of Tulum. Closest stores were more than a 20 minute walk. The location on the AirBNB map does not match the actual location you stay. We had to pay upwards of $100 CAD for round trip transportation to the main areas of Tulum every day. There is security on site up until a certain point. You cannot leave and come to the villa as you please or at any time of night or day as you are not given a key to the actual villa. All quite inconvenient. Pool side chairs were uncomfortable, couches were dirty, and a lot of aspects of the villa were dirty or broken (windows unclean, broken) and the rooftop was unfinished. Looks like the pictures but over all lacklustre, unfortunately.

Dear guest, Thank you for taking the time to give us your feedback. We're surprised as you didn't inform our on site concierge about these matters during your stay! As owners we always welcome comments and suggestions that help us grow and improve our product; Ensuring that our guests enjoy their stay with us to the fullest! Our villa’s location is exactly as described in our listing: nestled in the heart of the jungle! offering a unique, calm setting away from city noise. We understand that this natural environment sometimes presents its own wild side, that's why you experienced an issue with insects; but to address this, we do perform regular fumigations and daily checks, and we will be reinforcing our measures. Construction can be a little overwhelming in Tulum, we completely understand, Our goal is to keep our guests informed of any near by construction. We can see that the rainy weather limited your experience, as cover mats were needed to protect our installations. On sunny days, however, our loungers and rooftop create the perfect environment to relax and enjoy the day. We truly take your remarks into account as we strive to provide the best experience possible for all our guests, It has been an extreme pleasure having you over! Warm Regards, Ambre Epices Team

We booked many Airbnb but this one was at the top of the most beautiful houses we stayed in. It is a huge Moroccan style house with 8 bedrooms, all with a private bathroom and a unique personality. The level of service by Alain and Mohamed was at a five star luxury hotel level. There is a courtyard with a huge pool and even a cool room above it for socializing. Alain took care of all our needs and organized amazing breakfasts and a dinner. From the moment you enter this house, you feel like Royalty. Even days before our stay Alain set up a messaging group and made sure to communicate and organize every thing we needed. This is a must stay Airbnb.

The home looked just like the pictures and my party was very impressed. This is a great place to have some privacy. The only cons are the drive to the house because the area is still being developed and a few things related to cleanliness. Seems the housekeepers missed a few details here and there that were quickly addressed once we pointed them out. Examples: trash was left in one of the trash cans of one of the bathrooms when we first arrived and a tub or two wasn’t cleaned on the second day as there was a dirt ring or hair still left from the previous night after we arrived. I chose the place for the many tubs and they were used by each guest every night! We even brought our own bath salts to soak in the tub. Alain was very responsive and helpful in finding restaurants to visit. He also set up the chef which was great and was flexible when we had to move the dinner back 2 hours because our day trip to Chichen Itza went late. There’s also 24/7 security which helped us feel safe.
Host Response
Hi Brianna, we thank you for taking the time to share your amazing time while staying with us. So sorry to hear about the trash and tub issue. We have also shared your cleaning comments with our housekeeping team and will definitely make sure this never occurs again. Those tubs are truly the best way to unwind after a long day exploring 𝐓𝐮𝐥𝐮𝐦. Bonita Dia.

We hosted our friend’s bachelorette at this property and it was truly the best time. Alain was beyond attentive and responsive and anticipated our every need! Alain coordinated our transportation for every single activity, procured amazing chefs for delicious meals at the villa, stocked the fridge with all of the items we wanted and overall we just felt very safe, secure and peaceful. The amenities on the property are stunning and we recommend this property for anyone hosting a party or just in need of an amazing getaway!
Host Response
Hi Casey, thank you so much for your kind words. I will definitely share your feedback with the local team and we look forward to seeing you back soon.

5 Stars simply are not enough to rate Alain’s service for me and my group during our stay. We were a large group 13 for 3 birthday celebrations. Alain was very attentive and caring. If there was a question, he gave an answer. If there was a problem, he found a solution. Superb service all the way around!!
Host Response
Good Afternoon Joseph, we are so happy and thrilled to hear that our local team and Alain took great care of you and your friends during your birthday celebration while in Tulum. Happy Birthday again from all of us at Ambré et Èpices !

Highly recommend this villa. I hosted my husband's 50th birthday for 14 guests and we had a great time! Alain, one of the house managers, was amazing. He was so helpful and responsive prior to us coming to Tulum. He was so polite and accommodating with our needs. The meals at the villa were amazing and so fresh. Can't say enough of how much we loved staying here.
