Imagine living a 10-minute bike ride away from the Tulum pyramids and one of the most beautiful beaches in the world. 

Imagine waking up and walking to your neighborhood yoga class or sound meditation in the jungle before starting your day. Imagine heading into town on your bike to pick up a freshly cut coconut, iced matcha or superfood bowl before making your way to the beach. Imagine retreating from the sun to a funky strip of world-class boutiques, taco shacks, mezcal bars as well as Michelin-starred restaurants. Imagine heading back to your home for a massage before meeting friends at the neighborhood pétanque court. Imagine getting to go to bed knowing that you get to wake up and do it all over again.

Welcome to Bak Tulum

bak tulum

For the Tulumeño at heart, Bak Tulum offers residential lots in a gated community with shared common areas designed to cultivate wellness practices, creative endeavors and a deep connection to ourselves, fellow humans and nature. 

conscious community

Living in a Conscious Community means having access to a wealth of spaces and activities designed to nurture your body, mind and soul. It means receiving a bicycle as a gift to cruise to town and the beach, as well as having a convenient community recycling program. It means that your maintenance fees not only include gardening and cleaning but community land blessing ceremonies to maintain its energetic vibrancy. It means herbal teas and the scent of copal in the Club House and crushed crystals under the floorboards in the yoga studio. Basically, it’s the country club of the Aquarian Age. 

sustainability

Bak Tulum’s design is in accordance with Tulum’s current low-density master plan that restricts your development footprint to 60% of your lot. We will be encouraging residents to impact less by providing various renderings and blueprints and showing a model home that exemplifies beauty and functionality over size. The development will also provide a centralized water treatment and give residents economic incentives to use solar panels that connect to the local electricity grid. The community will also implement a community recycling program to minimize our waste footprint. Upon purchasing a lot in Bak Tulum, our gift to you is a bicycle! We are also hard at work with local authorities to improve bicycle paths and cyclist safety.

Highlights

location

Bak Tulum is conveniently located on the right of the Cancun-Tulum 307 highway as you are approaching Tulum. It’s only a five-minute bike ride from Tulum’s pueblo and a 10-minute bike ride from the beach and Tulum pyramids. We are a short 45-minute car ride to Playa del Carmen and 90 minutes from the Cancun International Airport.

Aesthetics

Bak Tulum’s design concept seeks to integrate the Tulum aesthetics in ways that sustain everyday life. It favors simple geometric structures that are softened, feminized and tropicalized with the use of local natural materials and color palette, organic accents and lush plant life. This natural harmony is uniquely Tulum and in a lifestyle context uniquely Bak Tulum. We take our design seriously, which is why, in addition to our law-abiding design covenant, we have created a Pinterest board full of inspiration to support future residents in their creative process. 

Opportunity

New generations understand that wellness is a birthright, and they want it integrated into their homes and communities. The wellness lifestyle real estate market is the fastest-growing sector of the entire wellness market. Buy your lot, build your home and enjoy it when you can and rent it as a profitable business with AirBnB the rest of the year. Our comprehensive renting guidelines seeks to preserve feelings of community while allowing owners’ homes to be a profitable investment. 

Bak Tulum’s rental property management has also created conscious community rules that AirBnB guests must respect as well as a list of compliances that Bak Tulum properties will meet to remain coveted sacred spaces. We also offer a list of recommended local architects and general contractors to those overseeing the construction of their homes from abroad.
