Secluded in low jungle and set behind a gorgeous stretch of palm-shaded white sand, this opulent, eccentric retreat was once drug baron Pablo Escobar’s Yucatan beach house.

Rooms are housed in sugar-cube villas dotted hidden by trees and they stand in arty contrast to Tulum’s standard sandals-and-yoga chic architecture: with glass walls, polished concrete and comfortable furnishings (woven carpets, velvet bed boards, neo-rococo chairs and sofas you can sink into…).

Public areas are crammed with startling abstract and figurative modernist art (collected by art empresario owner Lio Malca). And there’s a sumptuous pool and spa.

Surrounding area

Seconds away from the white sand beach at Tulum, a 10-minute cab ride from the village and a choice of restaurants, and a 15-minute walk from the wild turtle-nesting beaches of the Si’an Kaan Biosphere Reserve. Casa Malca is in a prime, lost-in-nature location.
