Afternoons run to the climbing wall, the coworking lounge, or the sculpture garden, and evenings to the on-site restaurant and the fire pits, with cultural events on the calendar. Downtown Tulum is about five minutes away, the beach about ten, and owners have beach club access in the hotel zone.

How is Aflora built and run?

In materials suited to the climate: aluminum sliding doors, Rosa Morada wood accents, and a mineral-based exterior finish. An artist-residency program and wellness classes, including programs for children, run on site, with a second pool and a kids’ playground.
