La Casa de la Playa offers an intimate, design-forward take on luxury. Set along a secluded stretch overlooking one of the Riviera Maya’s most iconic beaches, this ultra-luxury, all-inclusive, adults-only, butler-service property features just 63 oceanfront suites, creating a highly personalized and immersive experience.
Each of La Casa de la Playa’s suites is uniquely designed but all feature expansive balconies with hammocks, outdoor bath tubs, private pools, beautiful Caribbean views, and layered details crafted by artisans from across Mexico. The interiors reflect a reverence for Mexican culture and craftsmanship evident through design choices such as an endless array of intricately handwoven textiles and eclectic decorative elements. The result is a space that feels emotional, refined, and deeply connected to its surroundings.
Designed by renowned architect David Quintana, La Casa de La Playa elegantly combines open-air spaces, natural materials, and light to create a dialogue between jungle and sea.
At the heart of the resort and serving as both visual focal point, is a striking 40-meter infinity waterway that blurs the line between pool and ocean, inviting guests to swim toward the horizon.
Led by a collective of globally celebrated chefs, including Andoni Luis Aduriz and Martha Ortiz, the dining program is an ever-evolving celebration of Mexico’s diverse flavors.
Guests also enjoy access to 21 additional restaurants across Hotel Xcaret México and Hotel Xcaret Arte, including the MICHELIN-starred Le Chique by Chef Jonatán Gómez Luna.
On-site, guests have access to a series of sensorial and transcendental spaces—from the 24-hour Chocolatería by master chocolatier Mao Montiel, celebrating cacao’s cultural significance, to the Biblioteca, an ocean-facing library and retreat for a quiet drink and conversation.
Cava offers a curated selection of both global and Mexican wines selected by sommelier Sandra Fernández. The Cuarto de las Maravillas (Room of Wonders) showcases Mexican design through curated textiles and artisan objects, while La Bodega offers guests 24-hour access to a selection of Mexico’s best tequilas and mezcals.
Because La Casa de La Playa was built around the idea of holiday as retreat and renewal, the resort’s world-class Muluk Spa is a place where Mayan mysticism and contemporary Mexico merge to create ancestral treatments. The spa offers 13 treatment cabins, two salt rooms, two mudrooms, hydrotherapy rituals with ocean views including sauna, steam and cold rooms, relaxation areas and a beauty salon.
As the crown jewel in Xcaret Hotels’’ collection, guests of La Casa del La Playa also enjoy elevated access to a series of curated and highly personalized experiences.
From private cenote dinners and nighttime swims through underground rivers to exclusive access to Xcaret’s parks—including caving expeditions through near-virgin caverns, jungle zip lines, and cenote exploration—each experience is arranged through the guest’s butler and tailored to their personal interests and desires.
Guided by its “Exclusively Your Way” philosophy, La Casa de La Playa delivers a stay that’s customized without ever feeling overdesigned. In a destination defined by abundance, it stands apart through its restraint—offering Riviera Maya as something more intimate, more thoughtful, and ultimately, more lasting.
