Palmaïa - The House of AïA

Palmaïa, The House of AïA, invites guests to celebrate the complexity of the Riviera Maya while reconnecting with nature, the sanctity of life, and the true human spirit. In a region dotted with resorts and hotels, Palmaïa stands apart with its location between a pristine white sand beach and cool-water cenotes on the cusp of the undisturbed jungle and thoughtful programming created for guests to explore and step outside their usual comfort zones.

The Architects of Life program, led by the resident Shaman, offers personal growth practices such as cacao ceremonies, yoga, multi-vibrational sound healing, meditation, plant ceremonies, and ancient practices. The Rituals of Sound program features experimental musicians, who transport guests through curated deep beats and deep-fusion electronic music with acoustic overlays.

For families, Palmaïa has spacious suites with bunk-bedding for kids and operates the only holistic fun children's activities program in hospitality run by certified Waldorf Educators. While on property, guests can dine from a selection of four restaurants along with a rotating food truck, each serving plant-based menus and non-plant-based options.

The resort also includes a jungle spa, Atlantis, where ancient ceremonies like the storied Temazcal are included in the menu of services. At Atlantis, one is guided by the Book of the Nine Paths to Health, designed to treat emotions as root causes rather than physical pain.

PalmaÏa is a gifting community and provides everything guests need included in the cost of the stay so guests can enjoy unrestricted access without the hassle of exchanging currency.
