Wabi Sabi Garden Guesthouse by AMARA Concepts.

Wabi Sabi is the Japanese philosophy of seeking peace in imperfection. To appreciate the transition of natural cycles and process in motion, acknowledging that nothing is ever truly complete. As such, this cozy garden guesthouse will continue to evolve with time. A sensory experience, with light & organic texture at play. Designed with comfort, beauty & flow in mind. Enjoy custom furnishings made from fine hardwoods, upcycled scrap metals and antique & artisanal pieces found across the Yucatan.

While we have chosen to opt out of air conditioning, we have designed the space with passive and low energy cooling that keeps the home very comfortable, including: ceiling fans, a center vent, open air breeze block windows and trees sheltering the house from south eastern sun.

This home is an ongoing effort of transformation and we have plans to include a rooftop vegetable garden, a rain harvesting system, grey water recycling, on site water filtration and solar energy as the project evolves.

Please note: Tulum is a fragile and important ecosystem. We kindly ask that you are conscious about the trash you are creating while traveling. Please avoid plastics and packaging wherever possible. We have provided reusable grocery bags and glass food containers for your convenience.

Other things to note
Noise advisory: Tulum is a place to feel the night and interact with wildness in all forms. With the windows opened for airflow, expect to hear loud music coming from Avenida Coba, which sits right behind the house, as well as neighborhood dogs barking or the whistling of the many local vendors selling fruits, popsicles, fresh corn and pastries. Regardless, awaken to the enchanting sound of birds nesting in our ficus trees.
