The Residence

Surrounded by lush jungle just outside of Merida, The Residence represents the absolute pinnacle of ultra-luxury seclusion on the Yucatan Peninsula. Set within the renowned Chablé Yucatán wellness resort, guests can enjoy their own private villa retreat with access to top resort facilities.

This sprawling sanctuary spans over 24,000 square feet of indoor and outdoor living space, offering ample space for relaxation and rejuvenation. A scenic entryway flanked by swaying palms and tranquil reflection pools on either side welcomes guests to the villa, setting the tone for a relaxed stay. Stepping through to the central courtyard, the structure seamlessly integrates into the Mayan jungle with its use of warm Tzalam and Cumarú wood and a traditional thatched palm roof.

Lined with oversized daybeds and loungers on a sun-drenched deck, a 25-metre infinity pool serves as the heart of the estate. Beside the pool is a large Jacuzzi, where guests can indulge in a restorative soak. On the pool terrace, an outdoor dining table is perfect for relaxed al fresco meals overlooking the lush jungle surrounds, while a shaded lounge area with cooling ceiling fans offers respite from the sun’s rays.

One of the villa’s most impressive features is its stunning four-story observatory tower accessible via a lift or a grand staircase. Across its four levels, it boasts a private cinema, a state-of-the-art gym, a luxurious spa, and a rooftop terrace. The terrace offers an ideal vantage point for stargazing with a telescope or enjoying an evening drink by the warm glow of the fire pit while overlooking the jungle canopy.

Back on the ground floor, floor-to-ceiling windows on either side of the lounge room blur the lines between indoor and outdoor living. Locally sourced limestone and white Vermont marble floors paired with soaring exposed wood ceilings create a sense of space and a connection to the jungle surrounds. At one end of the lounge, a chic bar provides space to sample local spirits or enjoy evening cocktails; at the other, an elegant chef’s kitchen is equipped with a six-seater breakfast bar and sleek, modern appliances.

Moreover, villa guests also benefit from full access to the Chablé Yucatán facilities, including the wellness golf course, tennis courts, restaurants, and bars.

The villa sleeps up to 12 guests across five beautifully appointed bedrooms. Each bedroom features a king or queen configuration, a spa-inspired bathroom, and a private terrace. The master suite features a stunning limestone bathtub and a semi-open rain shower, allowing guests to bathe surrounded by lush tropical greenery.

With its serene location and high-end amenities, The Residence is the perfect choice for a luxury holiday in the Yucatan region of Mexico.
