The Beauty is in the Simplicity

Palm trees sway in the tropical breeze


The Tulum Vibe of Serenity Without The Crowds

Soliman Bay is located south of Cancun and Playa del Carmen. The 1.5 hour drive from the Cancun airport delivers you to this pristine bay. To the south is Tulum, a 15 minute drive. Soliman Bay is approximately 2 km (1.2 miles) long with calm waves and white sand beaches. The source of the calm water is the coral reef off shore which forces the waves to break there instead of on shore. It is part of the Meso American Reef System, the second longest reef system in the world.  

Privacy and security are inherent in Soliman Bay. The guarded gate screens visitors, those on the list are allowed to access the sand beach road to the homes. The privledged few villas are on the left and the virgin jungle and wetlands are on the right. A cul-de-sac is at the end of the beach road. There is no through access. Traffic noise is non-existent. Security is maxed.

Dense tropical jungle flora and fauna provide a natural screen of privacy complimented by the personal landscaping tastes of each villa owner. The homes are not cookie cutter. They have a personality, often reflective of the owner.

If luxury and privacy is your desire, you'll find the Soliman Bay Beachfront Estate provides both.

 


Sophistication and Charm Reenvisioned as One


 

Villa Maravilla and the Spirit of Tulum Guest House

 

Originally separate homes but on adjoining lots, the current owner incorporated both into the Soliman Bay Beachfront Estate. Combined, they compliment each other. Villa Maravilla is sophisticated, energetic and wordly. The Spirit of Tulum is tranquil, eclectic and charming in it's simplicity. 

 

The Estate Compound Is A Family & Friends Destination Only - Never Rented

 

Villa Maravilla

4 Bedroom Suites  4.5 Baths ● 5,000ft²

 

As the principal residence, Villa Maravilla has a sophisticated casualness in an elegant presentation. The entrance sets the tone of bold design but honest in its presentation. The statement is, "this is a home, a villa, and a residence, that is designed to facilitate a comfortable life and stimulate the enjoyment of it."

The spaciousness is evident and accentuated by the high ceilings and spectacular wall decor. The art is beautiful, and the proportions feel perfect. Villa Maravilla is indeed a home, but it is comfortable in the role of an entertainment hub and does so with an understated worldliness.

Villa Maravilla is where the action is, and the Spirit of Tulum Guest House is where one goes to contemplate and reflect.

 

Spirit of Tulum Guest House

2 Full Bdr ● 2 Petite Bdr ● 2.5 Bth ● 1,500ft²

The Spirit of Tulum guest house is comprised of several bungalows which exude the special and unique Tulum vibe: comforting, eclectic, and free spirited. The vibe is expressed in the Palapa roof, the veranda and the use of local wood crafted by hand for the railings, stairs, and furniture. A hammock is a natural and functional part of the home.

The added palm trees and tropical plants enhance the natural beauty and are harmonious with the beach setting. It is a special effect that you can feel the moment you enter.

Growing in front near the beach road is a spectacular ceiba tree. Mayans consider the Ceiba tree to be sacred. It is believed that the souls of the dead ascend to the top of the trees to go to heaven.

Bohemian chic is an apt style description for the Spirit of Tulum but belies its utilitarian purpose. It's a fun, harmonios and tranquil respite that becomes a world of its own.


Estate Compound Description and Specifics


 

Villa Maravilla

 

Villa Maravilla is a tranquil 4-bedroom, 4.5-bathroom beachfront villa nestled within tropical gardens. The manicured landscaping accentuates the natural beauty of Soliman Bay.

The property design draws inspiration from contemporary, tropical and hacienda styles. Combined with elements of traditional Talavera and Saltillo tiles, Maya and modern art, the result creates a propety that is a mix of old world charm and modern luxury.

 

Living Areas

The 25 ft. high foyer opens to the grand and spacious living, dining, and kitchen areas. Each are  framed in glass, bathing the house in natural light. Taking inspiration from tropical casual living, the seating area in the living room is styled with comfortable sofas and antique wooden armchairs. It's an ideal place to gather with family and friends. In the dining area a handmade wooden table seats eight people comfortably while lit by a wonderful wrought iron chandelier.

The large and fully equipped kitchen is set with stained concrete countertops, Talavera tiles and modern stainless-steel appliances. A breakfast table allows up to four people to sit while taking in the view overlooking the pool out to the Caribbean Sea. The grand entrance to the villa is via a lush, tranquil courtyard. Once inside the interiors incorporate Mexican furnishings including oversized iron and glass chandeliers, sculptural art and handmade furniture. The meticulous design ensures a light and airy property that flows easily and works harmoniously with the spectacular nature on its doorstep.

Garden and Swimming Pool

Huge 16-foot high sliding glass doors lead to the garden and the lagoon style pool which is surrounded by a patio with comfortable chairs, sofas, a gas barbeque and fire pit. The garden design continues to the beach. There you will find one of your favorite destinations -  a large beachfront palapa with hammocks and loungers.

Bedrooms

The four bedrooms are strategically located on both floors. All feature handcrafted armoires and bedside tables from San Migel de Allende. The downstairs bedroom offers a calm retreat from the rest of the house. It has direct access to the tropical gardens via its French doors which lead out  to a private terrace. Vaulted ceilings add to the airy feel of this room with its king-sized bed and carved colonial style headboard.

The spacious master suite has French doors which lead on to a private terrace. The king-sized bed has a headboard made of antique doors and the bathroom is full of natural light from the sky light above and picture window which looks out and over the upstairs garden. The bedroom leads to a second-floor study with a floor to ceiling bookshelf and an antique writing desk.

Two spectacular ensuite queen rooms offer panoramic views of the bay and beach. Each bedroom opens to an enormous private ocean front balcony which runs the width of the villa. Loungers and ceiling fans invite guests to relax and enjoy the stunning views.

Roof Terrace

The rooftop open-air seating area is shaded with a tropical canopy and offers a 360-degree view with the Caribbean on one side and jungle mangroves on the other. You can relax on the couches, lie in a Mayan hammock, gaze up at the stars, or catch the magical sunset over Soliman Bay.

Caretaker Casita

The two story concrete casita has a bodega on the lover level with comfortable full living quarters for the married couple caretakers above. They have been with the home since the beginning. They know the Villa and the compound and how to properly take care of it.

The Spirit of Tulum


Go-to place to chill


The Spirit of Tulum Guest House is actually a mini compound of three bungalows. They're a nod to the local flavored beach construction which takes advantage of the omnipresent tropical breeze. The traditional roof style dates back eons to the Maya. A giant of a tree, a revered ceiba tree, is in front and provides shade. The Maya believe it also gives spiritual comfort.

There's no grass to mow or manicure, just sand that does not get hot due to the lack of silica or quartz. Rather, it is composed of microscopic plankton fossils and crushed coral that does not absorb heat. At approximately 1,500 ft², it is intentionally small and communal. 

The front porch is the main attraction with the lazily circulating ceiling fans lending assistance to the Caribbean breeze that winds its way through the palm trees.

The bedrooms are comfortable with traditional tropical wooden slat shutters. The beds are comfotable, the bathrooms have modern fixtures and a shower. 

Local wood is utilized for construction purposes, as is most of the furniture.
