Hacienda Chekul

Part of the curated Villa Experience collection, Hacienda Chekul is a refined beach-front hideaway in Tulum that balances regional character with contemporary comfort. Conceived as a private retreat for discerning travelers, it offers a calm, residential atmosphere within the protected Biosphere Reserve of Sian Ka’an. The mood is one of understated ease, where attentive service and thoughtful design create a seamless setting for relaxed, fully serviced stays.

The hacienda is set on a 6-acre jungle estate, surrounded by lush vegetation and bordered by the fishing paradise of the Campechen Lagoon. Pristine Caribbean beachfront stretches out from its arched terraces, with cool white sand and coconut palms completing the sense of escape. Within this natural reserve, the property feels both deeply connected to its environment and pleasantly removed from the bustle, while remaining just a short distance from Tulum’s stylish dining scene.

Designed by award-winning architect Salvador Reyes Ríos, the villa reflects the architectural heritage of the region, interpreted with clean lines and generous proportions. A spacious living and dining area forms the social heart of the house, complemented by a fully equipped kitchen and multiple outdoor terraces. With four bedrooms and five bathrooms, the residence is well suited to families or small groups seeking privacy, comfort, and a coherent, well-planned layout.

Daily life here unfolds between shaded terraces, rooftop spaces, and the beach just beyond. Guests can move easily from indoor lounges to open-air areas that invite quiet reading, shared meals, or simply watching the surrounding birdlife. The rooftop terrace, with its lush garden and 30-foot infinity pool, adds an elevated vantage point for swimming and unwinding, while modern amenities such as air conditioning in all bedrooms, cinema entertainment, Sky TV, and broadband Wi-Fi ensure a relaxed, contemporary stay in an off-grid setting powered by solar and wind energy.

Hacienda Chekul is managed by Nalum Private Retreats, known locally for setting a high standard of personalized hospitality. Full staff, airport transfers, all meals, snacks, and non-alcoholic beverages are included, with dietary preferences and service details arranged in advance for a tailored experience. Within the Villa Experience portfolio, this property exemplifies our focus on distinctive homes, thoughtful sustainability, and discreet, well-orchestrated service in one of Mexico’s most remarkable coastal environments.
