"This elemental seaside hotel was designed by the Mexican architect Alejandro Rodriguez and is set amidst the white sands of Tulum’s beach. Though it’s on the larger side for the area—it has nearly 100 rooms—the property maintains its intimacy with accommodations ranging from bungalows with private pools to hotel suites and treehouses with ideal views of the Caribbean Sea. With wellness as a core pillar, guests can sign up for classes rooted in connection, from transformative breathwork sessions at its yoga shala to human design workshops at a seaside spot dubbed The Gratitude Tent. The culinary program is also top-notch at Kuu, a Japanese omakase with fresh sashimi and donburi bowls, and Macondo, a Mediterranean eatery offering small plates like herbed falafel and chicken tagine." - Michaela Trimble
