Yum Kaax
Description
Yum Kaax is a contemporary Moorish palace tucked away in the forest.
Imagine a modern-day Moorish palace with elaborate arches and classic craftsmanship mingled with sleek, modern lines, all concealed by a canopy of Tulum green. Yum Kaax, named after the Maya forest deity, was intended to be a residence that blurs the distinction between the jungle and the built environment. The end effect is an opulent, sensory property that is ceremonial yet laid-back: sophisticated enough for formal events, yet cozy enough for mornings spent barefoot.
The architecture is a harmonious exercise. The villa’s regal silhouette is created by soft, rounded Moroccan arches and vaulted volumes, while open-plan design and contemporary materials provide spacious sightlines and easy movement. Light, breeze, and birdsong become a part of daily life as a result of the expansive openings and covered walkways that invite the outdoors in and frame views of the surrounding foliage. In contrast to sleek surfaces that evoke modern luxury, earthy finishes and hand-forged details provide tactile warmth and anchor the house.
Interior design is a study in elegance and restraint. Natural textures like wood, stone, and woven textiles are complemented by a warm color scheme of sand, terracotta, and deep greens, giving each space a sense of purpose and serenity. Intimacy and volume are equally emphasized by fine materials and well-considered lighting design; private nooks are quiet and discrete, and common areas are roomy without feeling claustrophobic. Numerous seating areas, ample circulation, and a clear connection to the patios and gardens surrounding the house are all features of the living-oriented layout.
Eight suites with king-size beds and private bathrooms make up the incredibly comfortable accommodations. Six bathrooms feature freestanding tubs, some of which are tastefully incorporated into the sleeping quarters of the suites, providing quiet times for rest while taking in the scenery. A well-planned bedroom arrangement guarantees family and visitor privacy while preserving a smooth transition to the common areas of the house.
The outdoor features of the house are the center of entertainment and daily life. Adjacent to the long dining table is a patio jacuzzi, which is ideal for long dinners, al fresco breakfasts, or cocktail parties that extend into the evening. As you proceed through the property, a series of outdoor rooms emerge, sheltered by lush, well-kept gardens and cozy courtyards.
The villa’s most impressive feature is its rooftop terrace, which offers a broad view of the tropical canopy, sun loungers, and the main pool. It’s the perfect spot for sunrise swims, sunset parties, and stargazing. The rooftop connects visitors to the sounds of the jungle below while serving as a gathering place and a peaceful observation deck.
Yum Kaax, a quiet, green street only five minutes from the city center and about fifteen minutes from the beach, strikes a balance between privacy and convenience. It is situated in one of Tulum’s newest residential neighborhoods. It’s a private haven created to honor culture, nature, and elegant living—ideal for anyone seeking a contemporary, opulent getaway with a touch of the jungle.
