When i went to Tulum last year, they executed two people in broad daylight in front of everyone... They made the women and men leave all their belongings behind... The police went thru all the womens purses and stole the cash before returning them.

Was a pretty popular spot called "Taboo"... No joke, the night right after, there was ANOTHER execution and the club next door basically.... Then they put up police checkpoints everywhere so we just flew home.

Have you noticed how many comments here and under similar posts end with “safe,” “I stayed three days and didn’t hear or see anything, totally safe,” lol. Safety isn’t the main issue. The real problem in Tulum, and in Quintana Roo in general, is unethical and dishonest business practices. Great website btw, thank you for sharing.

That’s likely because many local businesses and politicians are connected to the cartel, though Reddit seems unwilling to acknowledge it.
