The Birth of
Forever Tulum

Forever Tulum was created in 2025 by Jorge Sotomayor, commemorating 30 years of vision and legacy from its founders. Roberto Palazuelos, creator of AHAU Collection, built the five iconic beachfront hotels since the 90s that today support this project.

Born as an exclusive community of travelers and members who share the same way of experiencing the destination: walking barefoot on the sand, waking to the sound of the Caribbean Sea and embracing the simplicity of natural luxury.
