Villas

Where architecture becomes part of the landscape

Spaces designed for serenity, comfort and connection. Each villa is built around a living tree, preserving the ground beneath while you dwell suspended in nature.

Design by renowned architect Frida Escobedo
What makes us different

Sustainability is not an afterthought. It's the foundation.

Built to preserve

Designed by Frida Escobedo, every structure rises on stilts, respecting water flows and letting vegetation continue its course. Low-impact materials, cross-ventilation, harmony with the jungle.

Crafted by local hands

Most furniture is made by local artisans using recycled materials from nearby industries. Exclusive pieces from Mexican makers complete each space.

Rooted in the land

Syntropic agriculture, Kanché gardens cultivated by our staff, low-waste systems. Everything here is designed to give back, not just take.

A project with purpose

Social inclusion, local economic development, natural conservation. A hotel as an excuse to ignite meaningful programs in the region.
