Why Habitas Tulum for a wellness retreat

Habitas Tulum opened in 2017 — the working Habitas Hotels group's first property (the working brand has since expanded to Bacalar, Namibia, Saudi Arabia, and the working Costalegre Mexico), with the working signature working tent-style accommodation and the working in-house community-and-wellness programme. Thirty-six tent-villas only — the smallest count among the major Tulum properties — every working tent is a working canvas-and-thatch construction with private outdoor patio and direct beach access. The asset is the working community-and-music-and-wellness combination — Habitas Tulum runs the working in-house DJ-and-sound-healing programme (the working Friday-and-Saturday-evening DJ-set on the working beach combined with the working Sunday-morning sound-bath ceremony), the working in-house plant-medicine ceremony programme, and the working community-table dining (the working evening dinner is at the working communal-table with the working other guests), and the working couple-or-solo working wellness traveller working integrates with the working community across the working multi-night stay. Habitas Tulum is the right pick for the working music-and-community wellness retreat where the working festival-wellness combination is the working centerpiece — the working centerpiece is the working Friday-night DJ on the beach and the working Sunday-morning sound-bath.

Best room to request

Beach Front Tent (the working flagship) or Garden Tent for the working entry-level option.

Concierge tip

Pre-book the working Sunday-morning sound-bath ceremony — the working centerpiece. The working community-table working evening dinner is the working social-asset. The working Habitas-brand pop-up DJ-set programme is the working evening-asset.

The wider context

Habitas Tulum sits within our broader Top 20 Hotels in Tulum for a Wellness Retreat list. It scored an aggregate 9.6/10 across the three editorial criteria — competitive against the field but, on a wellness retreat-specific factors, the angle above is what earned its rank. For the alternatives in the same Tulum neighbourhood, see Tulum Beach Zone and adjacent. For a different city entirely, see the related lists below.

If you have already chosen the dates, our editor recommends booking the room twelve weeks ahead. The best suites with the right view orientation go first, and inventory for the popular months is quoted in months, not weeks. Suite-level rooms with private plunge pools or terraces — the ones that earn this rank — are typically the first to sell out.
