"“When guests first arrive at this beachfront property, they’re greeted with an intention-setting ceremony that includes a blessing of copal smoke. Our Habitas is one of the first boutique hotels on Tulum’s beach road, giving it a rather privileged location: It’s nestled in a secluded stretch of coastline protected by two natural rock barriers. That means the property feels like its own hidden oasis, anchored by a beachfront pool shaded by swaying palms. Each of its tented suites comes with canvas walls, palapa roofs, and hardwood floors, as the property embraces an open-air lifestyle (most rooms have terraces or plunge pools that frame the Caribbean Sea, too). Following a community-first ethos, the hotel’s wellness program brings guests and local residents together for sunrise yoga classes, breathwork sessions, and even art therapy workshops. During a stay, guests can enjoy meals at Moro, where wood-fired Yucatecan cuisine is infused with Middle Eastern flavors, and restorative spa rituals, including a signature treatment where the body is coated in golden Melipona honey.”" - Michaela Trimble
"Upon arrival at Habitas Tulum, guests are whisked behind a stone façade and greeted with a copal cleansing ceremony. This sets the tone for a stay at this spiritual-chic hideout, located at the beginning of Tulum’s beach road. The heartbeat of the hotel is a central lounge area with low-slung seating in the sand and a bar and restaurant offering vegetable-forward Spanish cuisine. The space opens to an oceanfront pool and lounge with one of the only secluded beaches in the area thanks to two natural rock barriers. The safari-style, low-impact suites are simple yet functional, each with a nearly identical design, save some that offer plunge pools while others have jungle or ocean views." - Michaela Trimble
"A sustainable desert retreat composed of 96 prefabricated villas shipped from Mexico and designed to minimize construction impact, with accommodations fashioned from bamboo, canvas, and responsibly sourced hardwood (even the key card is bamboo). The arrival experience emphasizes cultural exchange through a traditional welcome ceremony featuring incense and the gifting of a bracelet, while tented suites offer king beds, indoor/outdoor showers, patios for stargazing and Celestial villas equipped with telescopes. Villas are spread across the valley and guests typically use provided electric bikes (or golf-cart shuttles) to reach the co-ed pool, a contemporary Middle Eastern restaurant (notable for its beetroot hummus), and a wellness spa. The property also integrates contemporary art activations—such as Desert X trampolines—into the desert landscape." - Laura Dannen Redman
"Habitas Tulum is largely an open-air experience, going so far as to offer tented rooms with canvas walls, palapa roofs, and hardwood floors, as well as, in many cases, terraces that face directly out to sea." - MICHELIN Guide
