La Casa de la Playa

What the classifiers highlight

Architect David Quintana built this adults-only property as a living sculpture, local rock and plants running through common spaces shared with the jungle. Forbes points to the kitchen roster, Martha Ortiz, Virgilio Martínez, brothers Daniel and Patricio Rivera-Río, plus a 24-hour chocolate room and a mezcal bar. Muluk Spa runs thirteen treatment rooms and an Alchemist's Studio for scent-making.
