We stayed at Azulik this February in a Sea Villa, and the experience was truly mixed. It’s unique and artistic — it feels like stepping into a sculptural treehouse sanctuary. Our Sea Villa itself was beautiful, with a gorgeous tiled outdoor tub, swing and incredible aesthetic details. It’s a visually striking property. Melanie, our concierge, was friendly, responsive, and very helpful throughout our stay. However there were several disappointments. While the basics in the room appeared cleaned, there were noticeable gobs of hair around the bed and bathtub, which detracted from what should have felt like a luxury stay. The sea and sky villas are built very close together, offering no privacy, you can see and hear everything- something to be aware of if you’re expecting a secluded atmosphere. The beach area is small and located next to a public access point, which was busy during our visit. It felt crowded, and there were not enough lounge chairs to accommodate the number of guests. On every occasion when we spent time at the beach, we received no service or greeting. When we requested towels, we were told they were out and never received any. The beach area was not cleaned at the end of each day, so in the mornings the seating areas were scattered with dishes, glassware and food scraps. The overall vibe during our stay felt more like a spring break or Burning Man–style retreat than a tranquil luxury escape. Also, the water in the shower, sink, and outdoor tub was brine, which may align with their eco-concept but was unexpected. It’s beautiful & unique, but the service consistency, cleanliness & beach experience did not align with the price point.
