Private Paradise,
Crafted for You

El Silencio is nestled in the protected Sian Ka’an Biosphere, just south of Tulum, Mexico. Most guests fly into Tulum International Airport, which has direct flights from cities like Miami, Dallas, New York, Atlanta, Charlotte, Houston, and Chicago. Private transfers can be arranged from the airport to the property by ground or boat.

Alternatively, guests can fly into Cancun International Airport and either book a private transfer through us or take a public bus to downtown Tulum, where we can arrange pickup for the final stretch to the sanctuary.

We’ll help guide you through every step. The journey is part of the experience.

Everything is on request and tailored to your group. On property we host chef dinners, massage and spa rituals, yoga, meditation, breathwork, sound, temazcal, cacao, art sessions, and ceremony. Nearby we arrange lagoon boats, reef days, cenotes, ruins, nature walks, and stargazing. If you can dream it, we can create it.

Yes. We specialize in yoga, wellness, and meditation retreats, as well as purpose-led corporate offsites for about 20 to 40 guests.

Share dates and group size on the inquiry form and we will propose layouts and options.

Yes. We host intimate weddings and life celebrations with a focus on ceremony, cuisine, and connection. Private buyouts only, ideal for 20 to 40 guests. We can arrange layouts, chef dinners, acoustic music, and quiet, candlelit settings. As we are inside Sian Ka’an, quiet hours, respectful sound, and prearranged logistics apply.

Treehouses, casitas, tents, and tower rooms, each uniquely designed with local, artisanal details. Most spaces can be reconfigured with queen, double, or twin setups for private or shared stays. We offer 12+ rooms and host about 20 to 40 guests depending on layout. Cooling: rooms have floor fans, cross-breezes, and screened windows. There is no A/C at this time due the limitations of our solar power system.

Yes. Families are welcome, especially for private buyouts and select dates. The setting is off-grid and nature-forward, with decks, water, and wildlife, so active supervision is required. Quiet hours apply, and spaces are not childproof. Tell us your group size and ages and we will advise room configurations and suitable activities.

Yes. We operate year-round. Peak season is November to February. Shoulder periods vary with weather and sea conditions. August to October is typically quieter. Seaweed can affect beaches seasonally. We recommend daylight arrivals and will confirm access based on current road and lagoon conditions.

Yes. We operate on a low-impact model: solar power, fans instead of A/C, water and waste reduction, and minimal single-use plastics. Materials and décor are local and artisanal. We compost when possible and partner with local providers. Guests follow simple respect guidelines for the land, wildlife, and community.

Yes. Wi-Fi is provided via Starlink across common areas and most rooms, suitable for email, calls, and light work. Phone service can be intermittent in Sian Ka’an, so plan to use Wi-Fi calling and apps like WhatsApp. Download large files in advance.

Yes, based on availability. Solo stays are offered on select dates when the property is not privately booked. Minimum nights may apply. Send your dates and we will confirm options.

Yes, in limited spots. We prioritize artists, musicians, wellness practitioners, and skilled helpers who add clear value. Typical support includes retreat production, setup and breakdown, garden and beach care, meal prep, and arts or wellness programming.

Exchanges are project-based and date-specific. A typical arrangement is about 5 hours per day plus a small weekly contribution to food. Shared lodging may be provided on select dates. Minimum stay usually 1 to 2 weeks.

To apply, share your skills, dates, portfolio or links, and two references. All participants follow our respect and safety guidelines.

Guests seeking a party scene, loud nightlife, or public attention. Those expecting ultra-luxury resort amenities or A/C in every room. Anyone unwilling to respect nature, quiet hours, and community guidelines. Large amplified events or productions that disturb the setting. Groups that won’t adapt to off-grid access, rustic roads, or simple logistics.

Complete the inquiry form with your dates, group size, room needs, and program focus. We will reply with availability, a draft layout, and a proposal. To hold dates, place a deposit and sign the agreement. This is a request process, not instant booking. Email us at: elsilenciosiankaan@gmail.com for any questions.
