Hotel Esencia is a majestic 50-acre estate at the midpoint between Tulum and Playa del Carmen in Mexico. Originally built as the private hideaway home of an Italian duchess on the most beautiful beach of the Mayan Riviera, it later became a hotel. The Main House remains the hotel’s centerpiece, around which footpaths lead to only 29 suites and villas where guests enjoy genuine privacy and top flight hospitality. The spacious suites are equipped with air conditioning, Wi-Fi, Cable TV, minibars, and beautiful private bathrooms. The extensive list of amenities includes a private beach, heated pools, the organic spa, and two gourmet restaurants.
