Candela

Welcome to Candela a residential community tucked away in the lush jungle of Tulum. It is the result of a thoughtful, environmentally conscious design by architects Salvador Macias, Magui Peredo, and Diego Quirarte of Estudio Macias Peredo. The development honors the ancient Mayan culture and traditions of Tulum through its overall design and atmosphere. It offers a variety of luxury residences and villas, each tailored to meet different needs—whether you're seeking a small, private retreat or a larger home ideal for hosting friends and family.

The homes are surrounded by native trees and arranged in a circular layout around a central garden space designed to feel like a tropical botanical retreat. Footpaths connect the residences and villas, reinforcing the connection to nature. The architecture encourages an indoor-outdoor lifestyle, with expansive glass doors that open onto private terraces. Many of the homes feature private pools, sundecks, and rooftop terraces, offering sweeping views and a perfect setting for enjoying the open-air lifestyle Tulum is known for.

Inside, each residence and villa is designed to feel warm and welcoming. The open floor plans create spacious areas for relaxing or entertaining, with chef-style kitchens that flow into bright, airy living spaces. Large glass walls bring the outdoors in, allowing natural light to flood the rooms. Bedrooms are set up to provide privacy while offering beautiful views of the surrounding jungle. Each one includes direct access to a peaceful balcony, creating a quiet space to unwind.

Candela residences and villas come with a number of premium features. These include open-plan great rooms, chef-caliber kitchens, high-end finishes and appliances, private outdoor pools and sundecks, rooftop terraces with jacuzzis in select homes, tall window walls, and private parking.
