Solitude, nature, and pure tropical bliss. If there’s a place in the Riviera Maya that ticks every box for a perfect holiday, that is Soliman Bay. It was founded as a residential community by the sea, and today is one of the only spots where you’ll experience the Mexican Caribbean like it was a decade ago. No crowds, no massive all-inclusive resorts, just the beach, the jungle, and the absolute privacy of the charming inlet.

Soliman Bay isn´t far from the action either. This quiet little spot is just 15 kilometers north of the colorful streets and gourmet restaurants of Tulum. World-class gastronomy, ancient Mayan cities, and jaw-dropping cenotes -crystalline freshwater pools hidden in the jungle- are just minutes away.

All this natural beauty and cultural richness do not come at the expense of comfort either. You can enjoy a luxury stay while being immersed in a tropical oasis, you just have to know where to look. So let us help with that. Here are our top 5 villas to experience the best of Soliman Bay.
