Cenote Zamna: A Private Jungle Cenote and Eco-Hotel

Zamna is an 11-hectare jungle property at km 200 on Highway 307, roughly 5 km south of central Tulum in the Aldea Tulum corridor. It was re-consecrated in 2017 under the name of the Mayan god of wisdom. At its center is a natural freshwater cenote, filtered and open for swimming, kayaking, paddleboarding and snorkeling when no event is running. Around it the site holds a pool that faces a stage set among the trees, and a ring of eco-cabins along the water.

This is not a public swimming cenote you drop into on a spare afternoon. Access to the cenote and pool is tied to staying in the eco-cabins or attending one of the ticketed events the property hosts each winter.

The Cenote, the Pool and the Eco-Cabins

Each eco-cabin has a king bed, a private terrace, air conditioning, a maxi-bar and a private shower, oriented toward the cenote and the island stage. Breakfast is included, and the front desk arranges yoga and massage. The trade-off is remoteness: the site is far from the beach and town, so you will need your own transport to come and go.

The Winter Festival Nights

The property is best known for the electronic music series it stages here each winter, from late December through mid-January. The season is not one ticket: each night is a separately ticketed event built around a single brand or headliner. Over the years the cenote and pool stages have hosted Afterlife, Tomorrowland's CORE stage, Keinemusik, ARTBAT, Black Coffee, RÜFÜS DU SOL and the Mayan Warrior art car, among others. Production is the signature, with monolithic LED structures, lasers and large-scale lighting across the jungle pads and the pool stage.

Getting There and Booking Your Visit

The venue sits off Highway 307 outside town, about 5 km from central Tulum, so getting there takes planning. Taxis from town or the beach charge steep and inconsistent fares on event nights, so many people use local shuttle buses, rent an ATV or scooter, or stay in the adjacent Aldea Tulum developments within reach. If you drive, budget for on-site parking and arrange a sober ride home. This is one of the more logistics-heavy cenotes in Tulum to reach, so sort your transport before the night rather than after.

Frequently asked questions about Zamna Cenote

Reservations, dress code, parking, hours, and house policies at Zamna Cenote, answered by the team.

  • Is Zamna Tulum a free cenote you can just walk into?
    No. Zamna is a ticketed event venue built around a private cenote, not a public swimming cenote. Access to the cenote and pool is tied to staying at the eco-cabins or attending a ticketed event.
  • How do I get to Zamna Tulum from town?
    The site is off Highway 307 outside Tulum, about 5 km from the center. Options include taxis, local shuttle buses, an ATV or scooter rental, or staying in the nearby Aldea Tulum developments. Sort your transport before the event, as fares on party nights can be high and inconsistent.
  • How much do Zamna Tulum tickets cost?
    Individual event tickets start from around $50 USD for general admission and rise to $200 or more, with VIP and backstage tiers above that. VIP table packages start at a minimum spend of roughly $500 USD per person.
  • When is the Zamna Tulum season?
    The main season runs in winter across December and January, with each night ticketed separately. The 10th anniversary season is scheduled from December 31, 2026 to January 10, 2027.
  • Can I stay overnight at Zamna Tulum?
    Yes. A cluster of eco-cabins borders the cenote, each with a king bed, terrace, air conditioning and private shower, with breakfast included. The cabins sit across the water from the stages, so check the event calendar if you want a quiet stay.
  • Is re-entry allowed once inside an event?
    No. Re-entry is not permitted once you are inside, so plan your night before you go in. Entry also involves thorough security checks at the gate.
  • Does the eco-hotel at Zamna include breakfast?
    Yes. Each eco-cabin comes with breakfast included, along with a king bed, private terrace, air conditioning, a maxi-bar and a private shower. The front desk can also arrange yoga and massage.
  • How do payments work during Zamna events?
    During events the venue runs on a pre-loaded cashless wristband. Any balance you do not spend is not refunded, so top up carefully rather than loading more than you plan to use.
