Last month I travelled to Tulum, Mexico for a week. After a long winter the opportunity to experience sunshine and warmer weather came at a perfect (and much needed) time. I spent the majority of my stay in town, a few streets off of the main road. I really enjoyed the atmosphere of the place and the people were very friendly with big smiles. Tulum is a good destination if you want a getaway that allows you to explore both a little of the local life (it is very accessible by bike or foot) and a breathtaking natural environment.
