Centrally located on the perfectly sandy Tulum Beach – this luxury villa has an authentic and laid-back feel. Boasting spectacular views of the crystal clear sea – this villa is the perfect retreat for a family or group of friends. Spend your days enjoying the swimming pool, or the Caribbean waters – with access to boogie boards, sea kayaks, and paddleboards – the kids will stay entertained. You can enjoy meals on your terrace cooked by a private chef here – you will be sure to experience the tranquillity of beachside living in a luxurious style.


Casa Boho

Beautiful and modern, this villa is an elegant oasis beside the jungle of Tulum. It’s a short drive from the beaches and close to Tulum's hotels and nightlife, but it feels a million miles away. Walls of glass and an open-concept layout make it a bright, welcoming space, and the state-of-the-art amenities make it comfortable and convenient. We love the open-air atrium, with its hanging hammock chairs and fountain – it’s particularly romantic in the evening. Outside, a private pool and oversized sunbeds await for relaxing days in the sun. 

Maya's Paradise

This penthouse apartment is a great option for guests seeking ease, comfort and a great location. It also offers a private plunge pool and terrace along with access to shared facilities – including a communal swimming pool and gym. This isn’t the best spot if you’re in search of total seclusion, but it’s well suited to families and groups looking for a fuss-free tropical getaway. From here, it’s just a ten-minute drive or cycle ride to the beach, while the restaurants and shops of central Tulum are also within easy reach. 

Puro Amor

This Mexican villa in Playa del Carmen is perfect for a laid-back beach holiday. It's perfect for families – there's a garden for games and sunbathing, a terrace with a barbecue for alfresco dinners, a pool for splashing around, and shared sleeping arrangements. It's only a short walk from both the Hard Rock Golf Club and the beach, so you can spend mornings on the green or the golden sands before heading into the hustle and bustle of central Playa del Carmen. Here, you'll find local markets, authentic restaurants, and fascinating Mayan ruins. 

The Sunny Coast

Nestled among the jungle paradise of the Sian Ka'an Reserve, this villa makes quite the first impression. It's just a stone's throw from the Caribbean Sea, boasting a private pool and ample terraces where you can make the most of the sunny weather. Inside, the air-conditioned bedrooms are the perfect respite from the heat. We love that the decor honours Mexican and Mayan styles – combined with a touch of luxury, of course. And, if that’s not dazzling enough, you'll also have friendly staff to cater to your every whim – including a private chef who will be preparing three delicious meals a day, as well as a butler, housekeeper, and concierge to help plan your Tulum adventures.  

Tropical Sanctuary

Steps away from a private beach, where Caguama giant sea turtles lay their eggs in the summertime, this magical estate sits on the resort-dotted Riviera Maya coastline – offering you easy access to the Caribbean Sea. Tucked between palm trees, this home is set within fifty acres of the jungle. As the vision of a brilliant Mexican architect, you'll see local art pieces and mahogany woodwork inside. Relaxation is paramount here, so there are seven terraces, six seating areas, and two traditional palapas for you to choose from.

Wake up after a restful night's sleep and freshen up in your en-suite bathroom. Then, birdwatch in your gorgeous garden, while the private chef prepares a delicious breakfast of huevos rancheros. Indulge in a lazy morning by the heated pool, before stepping out on the white sands of Playa Xpu-Ha. Why not explore Quintana Roo further? You can swim at Kantun Chi eco-park, then rock-climb at Chikin Ha. While this area is known for its gourmet food and calm atmosphere, wilder Cancún waits in the north. 

In the evening, come back and have a barbecue. Play son mexicano over the outdoor speakers and enjoy waiter service until 10 pm. Be sure to make use of your bar room and toast a happy holiday with the nation's favourite – tequila sours.

Under the Palapas

Find your zen in this luxury oasis nestled in the heart of Tulum, Mexico. With one private plunge pool and one shared pool in the common outdoor space, you'll have just as much fun outside as you will inside. Take insta-worthy photos in the tropical courtyard, and gather in one of several outdoor seating areas to dine alfresco or enjoy drinks under the hot Mexican sun. Whip up something tasty in the well-equipped kitchen and relax in one of two living areas – there's more than enough room for everyone. This home is well-stocked with the essentials so you can spend your time relaxing rather than heading out to the shops. You'll have the support of your host as well as the front desk to help with any queries or concerns during your stay, as well as services like luggage drop-off if you're arriving early or leaving late.

You'll be right in the centre of everything with just a short walk between you and the beach, the town of Tulum, historical archaeological ruins and enchanting cenotes. Discover the natural beauty of the area with tours of local historical and cultural sites, go reef snorkelling or try out a jungle expedition if you're looking for adventure. At the end of the day, you can pour yourself a glass of tequila and cool off from all the excitement in your private plunge pool or gather everyone together in one of the living areas for a movie to round off a big day.

Wild & Free

Located in an exclusive gated community in Tulum, this villa has been designed for an indulgent stay in paradise. Complete with a private chef and butler, you're free to focus on relaxation – whether that's in the courtyard pool or the rooftop hot tub. The contemporary interiors are guaranteed to dazzle, but our favourite lounge spot has to be the rooftop fire pit, where you can enjoy drinks alongside a sunset. Let's not forget the community amenities, either – a gym, Olympic-sized swimming pool, and padel courts. It's a short wander to Tulum's shops and restaurants and just a ten-minute cycle to the beach – but with all this at home, why would you leave?

A Jungle Secret

Located on the sandy beachfront in Tulum, this villa boasts incredible views of the Caribbean Sea. The home is bright and breezy, with plenty of room to accommodate up to twelve guests – ideal for groups and families. You needn't leave this luxurious resort – with access to a private seaside pool, shaded terraces, and open-air dining. With direct access to Tulum Beach, you'll find plenty of natural shade, sun loungers, sea kayaks, and boogie boards. Benefiting from its resort location, you can enjoy evening meals prepared by private chefs in the comfort of your own villa. 

Palm Shaded Paradise

Let’s start with the communal facilities at this luxury resort because they are fantastic. There’s an oasis-style infinity pool surrounded by lush greenery. You’ll also find a rooftop relaxation zone with a firepit, a spa, a gym with wellness and dance classes and a rock wall climbing course. There are also hammocks and a floating net area if you prefer to relax and there’s an onsite restaurant and bar. You can also chill out on this apartment’s private balcony. This home has a small kitchenette – there’s no oven, but there is a hob and microwave. But as well as the onsite eateries, Tulum with its beaches, bars and restaurants is just under 4 kilometres away.

The Seaside Sunset

This wonderful apartment can be found at the heart of Playa del Carmen, and has everything you might need for a fabulous holiday in Mexico. The complex is modern and stylish, with a beautiful infinity pool as well as a gym. Whether you’re planning on soaking up the sun all day or prefer to get stuck into a good book in the shade, you’ll love having this apartment as your base. 

The interior is cool and tranquil, with a neutral colour palette that really allows you to kick back and relax. When you wake up from a comfortable night’s sleep, you’ll likely want to head straight for the pool – the water is ever so inviting. If for you a holiday isn’t a holiday without the feel of sand between your toes, you’re in luck – the beach is just a six-minute walk from the apartment. Settle onto a sun lounger near the shore, or pop into the beach club for lunch – you’re on holiday after all. 

There are also excellent shops and restaurants to discover on 5th Avenue, which is five minutes away on foot – you’re never too far from your next great meal here. 


The Orange Conch

This luxurious villa is nestled within the tree canopies on a boutique beach resort in Tulum. The interiors have a laid-back and luxurious feel, and there's plenty of communal space. Designed with entertaining and socialising in mind – the villa can comfortably accommodate a group of eight. Due to the beachside location, you'll likely spend most of your days soaking up the sun. Outside you'll find a private swimming pool, beach access, a roof terrace, and patio area. Benefiting from its luxury resort location, you can make use of the onsite taco bar, breakfast shack, and private chef services.
