"This hotel and BeTulum (next door) are the only hotels on the strip who don't get seaweed on the beach."
"Every corner reveals a perfect moment in a very nonchalant manner."
"The suit is grand, both in terms of size and how lush and utterly comfortable it feels."
Casa Malca - A luxury beachfront hotel with art-filled suites, three restaurants, and a rooftop spa
Casa Malca features 70 individually decorated rooms and suites, each with floor-to-ceiling windows, air conditioning, and laptop-friendly workspaces. The two-level Townhouse Labyrinth Suites are surrounded by a tropical garden maze, offering privacy and eclectic decor with vintage furniture. Three onsite restaurants serve distinct cuisines: Philosophy offers Mexican and international dishes, Ambrosia specializes in Asian fare, and Head of a Mad Man provides wood-fired pizzas and seafood by the beach. The rooftop Calma Spa includes a hydrotherapy circuit, sauna, and treatments using natural products. Located on an unspoiled beach near the Sian Ka'an Biosphere Reserve, Casa Malca is 75 km from Aeropuerto de Playa del Carmen.
Pros
The property showcases original artworks from owner Lio Malca's private collection, displayed throughout the suites and public spaces.
Direct beach access from the Master Suite Beachfront and Junior Suite Beachfront, with floor-to-ceiling ocean views.
The rooftop Calma Spa features a hydrotherapy circuit and treatments inspired by ancient rituals.
Three distinct pools include a main pool area with daybeds and an underground Grotto pool with atmospheric lighting.
The Beach Club offers cabanas and hammocks on a white-sand beach with Caribbean Sea views.
Cons
The underground Grotto pool may feel cool due to its cavernous setting.
The nearest airport, Aeropuerto de Playa del Carmen, is a 75 km drive away.
