ABOUT AMANSALA
AMAN:PEACE / SALA:WATERS
Amansala is named in Sanskrit after Tulum's peaceful, crystal-clear waters.
To this day, it is still one of Tulum's most iconic, eco-chic boutique hotels.
It is founded on the belief that a vacation is when you return home looking and feeling better than when you left.
Amansala’s design and atmosphere reflect the wabi-sabi philosophy using natural materials and organic shapes.
The rustic, weathered look of the buildings, the unpolished wood, and the hand-crafted details all contribute to a sense of authenticity.
FOUNDER AND CEO MELISSA PERLMAN
She feels blessed to have found her life’s calling, which combines her love of fitness, food, the beach, design, people, and self-development. Her warmth is contagious, and she often says she feels like she is having one continuous dinner party with amazing people coming week after week.
She is a mother of two and resides with her family in Tulum, where she continues to be hands-on in making Amansala the special place it is.
“After traveling all over Southeast Asia to some of the world's best beaches, she heard about a little piece of paradise just a few hour’s flight from New York City and fell in love with Tulum. What started as an idea for a "pop-up" turned into the most iconic Tulum hotel, two kids learning how to navigate the bumpy road of being a savvy hotelier in a macho-dominated society where things are still a bit like the Wild West.”

"Amansala is more like staying at a friend’s beach house than a hotel."
Amansala is ideal for relaxing and reconnecting with yourself or your partner. The resort fosters a community atmosphere where guests can bond over shared experiences, from communal dining to group wellness activities. The staff, known for their warmth and hospitality, are dedicated to making each guest's stay unforgettable, providing personalized service with a genuine smile.
Known as one of the most iconic hotels in Tulum, surrounded by white sand, palm trees, and turquoise water. The village-like neighborhood consists of two properties, Grande and Chica, with Amansala’s signature Eco Chic Style, within a few minutes of each other and comprising various rooms and cabanas.
There are also three yoga shalas and two restaurants serving delicious fresh food.
