In-Depth Review of the Tour Experience
Starting Point and Logistics
This tour begins in Telchac Puerto, a charming fishing village just a short drive from Merida. The start time around 10:30 am gives travelers a leisurely morning escape — no early rush. Since it’s a private tour, your group has the luxury of flexibility and personalized attention.
The route is straightforward: after a brief transfer, you arrive at Playaviva Telchac Living Beach Club, considered the best beach club in Telchac and Merida. The emphasis on comfort and amenities here means you can truly relax without sacrificing convenience.
Playaviva Telchac Living Beach Club
This is the core of the experience. The beach club offers a range of facilities including a gym, bar, restaurants, and common lounging areas. The main pool and jacuzzi provide a perfect spot to unwind, while the beds arranged around the beach or under shaded areas allow for lazy afternoons.
We loved the way the club’s campfire setups were protected for safety — a small touch that shows care. The beachfront location means you can easily go from lounging to dipping your toes in the sand, making the transition between relaxing and active seamless.
The club’s locker system is a practical detail that adds to the overall ease — you can leave your valuables securely while enjoying the water or the sun.

Enjoying the Beach & Sunset
One of the tour’s highlights is the opportunity to enjoy the sunset. With the beach in front of the club, you can settle in with friends or family and watch the sky change color — a truly memorable moment. Many reviews highlight how effortlessly you can settle into this peaceful scene, “rush the sunset without any problem,” thanks to the club’s prime position.
Gastronomy & Drinks
While lunch isn’t included in the $50 fee, the club boasts restaurants and bars that serve delicious regional dishes and refreshing drinks. We’re told the gastronomy here is a major highlight, with some reviews mentioning how “delicious tapas and regional flavors” really elevate the experience. This means you can enjoy authentic Yucatecan snacks, fresh seafood, and tropical drinks, making the day taste even better.
Duration & Pacing
The 8 to 10-hour length allows plenty of time to unwind, take walks on the beach, enjoy the amenities, and soak in the scenery. This isn’t a rushed trip; it’s about savoring the peaceful coastal atmosphere. The flexibility of the schedule helps as well — you can linger longer at the sunset or take your time enjoying the facilities.
Considerations & Practical Tips
Since lunch isn’t included, bringing some snacks or planning to purchase food at the beach club is wise. Also, because this is a private tour, group size is limited, which translates into a more intimate and tailored experience. However, the long hours mean it’s best suited for those prepared for a full day outdoors — packing sunscreen, water, and comfortable clothing is advised.
The non-refundable booking policy might be a concern for some, but it’s typical for this kind of curated experience.
Authenticity & Value
For the price, you’re getting access to a top-rated beach club, stunning sunset views, and authentic Yucatecan flavors — all in a relaxed, private setting. The tour’s focus on comfort, scenery, and regional tastes makes it a good value, especially if you want a day to unwind without the hassle of planning every detail yourself.

This experience is ideal for travelers who want to combine beach relaxation with local flavor. If you enjoy leisurely days, scenic sunsets, and comforts like pools and shaded beds, you’ll find this tour rewarding. It’s perfect for small groups or couples seeking a peaceful escape from Merida, especially if you appreciate authentic regional cuisine and a laid-back atmosphere.
Those looking for a quick, active sightseeing tour might find it too slow — but for anyone wanting genuine relaxation with a touch of Yucatán’s coastal charm, this tour hits the mark.
