La Riviera Maya es por sí sola un destino que llama la atención de cualquier tipo de viajero, desde la persona que busca relajación hasta aquellos que buscan actividades extremas.

Ahora, este bello destino contará con un nuevo hotel muy atractivo, la idea está a cargo de un estudio de arquitectura y diseño español, DNA Barcelona Arquitects, y hablamos del Cocoon Hotel & Resort.

Este hotel estará ubicado en Tulum, y si bien ese simple hecho ya es un plus, lo más impresionante es que se encuentra dentro de Selva Zamá, un área de la comunidad Aldea Zamá.

Inspirado en la selva y el mar, Cocoon Hotel & Resort cuenta con una superficie de 59 mil 402 metros cuadrados, contará con 5 nidos, de los cuales 3 serán residenciales y dos del hotel Cocoon, el cual contará con 167 habitaciones.

Encontrarás en la parte central de cada nido las albercas, las cuales pretenden simular cenotes. Además habrá spa, sauna, gimnasio, área de niños, bar, etcétera.

El proyecto está creado con materiales naturales, además de un sistema de recolección de agua y paneles solares, todo esto con la intención de minimizar el impacto al ecosistema y crear un hotel sostenible.

DNA unveils “Cocoon Hotel & resort”, Tulum, Mexico- a new concept of eco-tourism, and a great opportunity of connection with Nature, Community, Ourselves, inspired by the sea and the exotic forest. The project consists of 46.181 m2 offering 3 residential and 2 hotel buildings “COCOON” with 204 apartments and 167 rooms as well as 16 private villas. Every feature serves to give a unique experience and create a magical place for the guest, at the same time making him identify what is Mexico. The complex offers luxury community spaces integrated into nature such as jungle gardens, magical outdoor living spaces-villas, multipurpose pavilion, indoor community spaces, leisure areas, restaurant, and a panoramic Nest with unrestricted and breath-taking views. All to achieve a wide vocabulary of visual elements to mutate into designing language, in materials and shapes, for a bio-mimicry architecture. DNA´s objective was to achieve the balance between mind-body-soul providing a true escape from everyday life, allowing maximum disconnection and relaxation and that´s why spa-wellness, saunas, and community swimming pools were carefully developed and became an important part of this project. The idea was to create “Cenotes”- natural freshwater ponds, to which the Mayans gave a sacred use, thus allowing to experience the real Mayan´s rituals. DNA makes an emphasis on sustainability concept respecting ecosystem and biodiversity, contributing to the usage of natural materials that minimizes the impact of building and generation of waste. The water collection concept is also respected and represents a recovery of rainwater for sewage treatment. The solar panels are implemented to achieve sustainable electricity. Finally, the “dry” construction system is used, meaning no wet binders, shorter execution time, and increased safety and sustainability. #DnaBarcelona #dnabarcelonaarchitects #architecture #design #new #project #collaboration #cocoon #hotel #resort #rest #relaxation #nature #community #human #selvazama #mexico
