Frequently Asked Questions

Where is Casa Altamar located?2026-09-18T07:50:00-05:00

Casa Altamar is located directly on Tankah Bay, within the quiet beachfront community of Tankah III, just north of Tulum.

 

If you are driving from Cancún, turn left off the highway toward Tankah III, then take the first right onto the unpaved access road. After 3 kilometers, you will reach a security checkpoint, where you will be asked to provide your name and confirm that you are heading to Casa Altamar. Once through the checkpoint, continue for another 150 meters; the hotel parking area will be on your right.
