Book a hotel near Tule Tree, Santa Maria del Tule

"This is an older property, but the staff seem to take pride in their work and provide a high-level of service and attention. We ate at the restaurant for a couple of the buffet breakfasts and for a dinner and found the food to be quite good and always served hot. There is a gentleman not far from the hotel who rents mopeds and motorcycles, and will deliver to the hotel if needed. FYI"

"Todo muy bien, comida muy rica y staff muy amable. "

"We had 2 grandparents, 3 parents and 4 college aged grandchildren. The house was beautiful and well equipped for cooking, game playing, TV. The garden and pool area is lovely and our hostess is wonderful! "

"We never expected such a fantastic stay! We were originally looking at hotels downtown until we stumbled upon Debra and Victor's place, the Bule Villas, a short distance from downtown. While there's much to be said about being able to walk out to the action of the city, we often preferred places that are a bit private and yet accessible. This place was everything that we asked for- and MUCH more! We were warmly greeted by the owners even as we arrived late into the evening. They were such gracious hosts and really attended to every single need we had - from adding on a breakfast option to getting around the city (BTW, if it wasn't clear in the description, they offer a special drop-off and back to the villas so you don't have to take a taxi), to showing us a local market with delicious food. Of course, we happened to be the the only guests that week, so got some extra attention :). The villa grounds are perfectly maintained with amazing old trees and windy paths - it is literally an oasis in a place that can be fairly hectic. The villa also comes with a kitchen and all the basic appliances. It's comfy and homey and everything you wanted for a stress-free stay. While all 5 villas would have provided a fantastic stay, we were particularly lucky to get one that had two private balconies :). If you are looking for a local experience that has ample privacy and serenity, don't pass this up!"

"From the beginning to the end, our stay was terrific. We arrived later in the day but were greeted with open arms by the host. They showed us around the property it was dark, but we could tell how magical it was already. we weren't wrong. We arrived during the Day of the Dead Festival, and our host offered to take us downtown and gave recommendations of places to see and eat. All wonderful. The following morning, we were able to really see the true beauty of the property. We had a lovely breakfast in the most wonderful curated garden. we relaxed in the pool, which was designed by the host. they have a passion for design, and you tell across all parts. our bungalow was perfect for us as we each had our own room and shower. everything was extremely clean. I'm a biggie on this, and we are very happy. so much more! thank you again for opening your doors to us! "

"Extremely home-like stay with incredibly responsive hosts. Kari - with generosity and ease of communication - helped me navigate an urgent task I needed to handle (with my less-than capable local language skills) and was proactive about giving us information about how to get around. The location was simply ideal for us as people who didn't want to be super-close to the crowds and busy-ness of Centro, and could give us more convenient access to making our way to the hills of Ixtlan de Juárez, the traditional Zapotec town with breathtaking mountain views. We are 'urban hikers' and walked the delightful, residential 6 km to Centro nearly every day (with a rather convenient taxi stand just a 1 km walk on the only rainy hour of the entire trip!). We stocked up on coffee, snacks, and a few groceries at the Wal-Mart which is also a convenient and pleasant walk (or very short drive). Kari and Rudy made sure water was plentiful, and the home had every amenity you could need."
