Planning a wedding or a 30 to 56 person group stay in Tulum

Aldea Kaan Tulum is five villas standing side by side in La Privada, a gated enclave in Aldea Zama, Tulum. This guide answers one question groups ask: how do 30 to 56 people stay together in Tulum without splitting across hotels?

How many people can Aldea Kaan Tulum sleep at once?

All five Aldea Kaan Tulum villas together sleep 56 guests in 15 bedrooms, with 15 full and 15 half bathrooms and 5 private pools. Each villa has 3 bedrooms and a living room sofa bed. Casa David, Casa Lucas and Casa Thomas sleep 12 each; Casa Emilia and Casa Lydia sleep 10 each. Every bedroom has an en suite bathroom.

Which Aldea Kaan Tulum villas rent together?

There are three ways to book the Aldea Kaan Tulum villas, all on the group stays page. One villa sleeps up to 12. KAAN (Casa David, Casa Emilia and Casa Lucas) sleeps 34 and KAAN II (Casa Lydia and Casa Thomas) sleeps 22, each as one package. All five villas for up to 56 are booked by inquiry.

How do the gates work for a group at Aldea Kaan Tulum?

The gates between neighboring villas open when several are booked: Casa David, Casa Emilia and Casa Lucas share one outdoor space and Casa Lydia and Casa Thomas share another, so a group of 56 has five pools and 15 bedrooms side by side. Each villa keeps its own entrance, kitchen and rooftop terrace behind its gate. Three of the pools are on rooftops (Casa David, Casa Lucas and Casa Thomas) and two are on the ground floor (Casa Emilia and Casa Lydia); the ground floor pools sit beside the living rooms and have no gate, which matters for a group with small children.

How does a group of 56 get through the La Privada gate?

La Privada, the gated enclave around the Aldea Kaan Tulum villas, admits registered guests only. Every guest enters La Privada with a QR code that we provide and an ID at the security booth, which is staffed 24/7. Every villa has free parking on the premises, and the concierge arranges airport pickups at the vendor's price.

What does the Aldea Kaan Tulum concierge do for a group?

Concierge planning and coordination are included at no charge; chefs, airport pickups, tours and boat charters are charged at the vendor's price, and groceries at cost plus a small fee. For a group that means one contact who stocks the kitchens before you land, books a private chef for the welcome dinner, sets up cenote or ruins trips, and coordinates vendors for a wedding. Every villa kitchen is stocked for a chef to cook in, and the dining tables at Casa David and Casa Thomas seat 12 each.

Can a group hold a wedding or a celebration at Aldea Kaan Tulum?

Small weddings on the property are permitted; there is no published attendance limit, so we agree the guest count with you before booking. Unarranged parties are not permitted, and quiet hours outside start at 11:00 pm. Once the gates are open, neighboring villas share one outdoor space for the ceremony and the dinner: Casa David, Casa Emilia and Casa Lucas on one side, Casa Lydia and Casa Thomas on the other. Our concierge can plan and organize the entire event. We host a limited number of weddings each year, with ceremony and reception setups included, a vendor network, and covered areas in case of rain.
