This Tulum Hotel Has an Underground Swimming Pool 💦🌴

Pirates, we've seen some pretty unusual hotels in Tulum, but Casa Malca (4.2/5 on TripAdvisor & 2026 Travelers' Choice Winner) takes things to another level. For starters, it has an underground swimming pool called the Grotto, lit in blue and purple, and that's just one of the things that makes this beachfront hotel so interesting. Rates start from $330 per night.

The hotel belongs to art collector Lio Malca, whose collection includes works by KAWS and Keith Haring, displayed throughout the property. You'll even find furniture hanging from the ceiling and curtains made from vintage wedding dresses.

Another interesting detail: the property is rumored to have once been owned by Pablo Escobar, though that connection has never been definitively confirmed.
