tulum: what to buy

WHILE THERE ISN'T A TON OF SHOPPING IN TULUM, WHAT IS THERE IS PERFECTLY CURATED AND VERY OF THE PLACE. IN FACT, YOU COULD PROBABLY GET ON A PLANE WITH NO LUGGAGE AT ALL AND FIND EVERYTHING YOU COULD EVER NEED FOR THE PERFECT BEACH VACATION IN THESE SHOPS.

COQUI COQUI
Km 7.5, Carretera Tulum-Boca Paila
Uber chic shop in uber chic hotel. They carry a small selection of the Hacienda Montecito line of clothing and accessories (see below) as well as their own line of incredible perfumes. The perfect gift to bring home.

HACIENDA MONTAECRISTO
Km 7.5, Carretera Tulum-Boca Paila (at Coqui Coqui. see above)
High fashion meets beach chic at this incredible shop. And if you can’t get to Tulum, many of their pieces are available from a slew of US shops from J.Crew toClub Monaco,  too.

JOSA TULUM
Km 7.5, Carretera Tulum-Boca Paila
Best. Cover-ups. Ever. For real. These dresses and caftans go from day to night, won’t wrinkle in your bag. And the shop, a tricked out modern lean-to, might even be cooler than the wares.

LA TROUPE
Km. 7.5, Carretera Tulum-Boca Paila
Mexican style, Bohemian feel,  and everything here is made locally by Mayan women.

MR. BLACKBIRD
Km 7.5, Carretera Tulum-Boca Paila
It’s tiny and the floor is covered in sand but that doesn’t mean there isn’t a plethora of jewelry, sandals and accessories to choose from.
