Woven into the lush jungles of Tulum where the forest meets the sea, a new destination has taken root where holistic living, sacred wisdom, and cultural expression integrate to elevate consciousness. Cooled by Caribbean breezes and humming with birdsong, Faena Tulum is a sanctuary where the spirit harmonizes with the rhythms of nature and the keeping of ancient Maya ritual.

The 147 residential villas at Faena Tulum are redefining the art of a tropical living. Architect Brandon Haw looked to the solidity of ancient Maya construction to design contemporary homes that disappear into nature’s embrace. Raw concrete is softened with warm wood accents, a palette of sky blues, ochre yellows and dusty pinks, and interiors crafted from chukum, local polished plaster.
