The Review:
If you’re looking to experience Tulum’s bohemian spirit without sacrificing top-notch service and all-out luxury, Habitas is your place. Here, 32 safari-inspired tents are spacious and stylishly outfitted with king-size beds, New Age wall hangings, antique kilim rugs, and private patios, plus air-conditioning and Wi-Fi—not that you’ll need it. Guests at Habitas spend most of their time in the glass-framed lobby that doubles as a lounge (with fringed hammocks and floor pillows for low-key gatherings) or the yoga terrace and spa (which offers traditional honey facials, clay body masks, and more). The wellness theme continues in the restaurant, an open-air pavilion that serves up healthy fare like hoja santa shrimp and chermoula-baked eggplant. Wash it all down with craft cocktails made with locally sourced ingredients or, for the especially nutrition-obsessed, fresh-pressed juices at the beachfront infinity pool.
