4 Bedroom House for Sale in Aldea Zama
Designed for living, in Tulum's most established gated community
If you are looking for a 4 bedroom house for sale in Aldea Zama, Tulum, Casa Paloma is one of the few options in La Privada that delivers on every front: architecture, materials, and a complete turnkey interior designed for real life.
A Home Built to Live In
Casa Paloma sits on a 4,025 sqft lot inside La Privada, the most established gated community in Aldea Zama. The house has 3,175 sqft of construction across three levels, four bedrooms, and four and a half bathrooms. Two bedrooms are on the ground floor, which makes daily life easier and gives the home flexibility for guests or family members who prefer not to use the stairs.
The outdoor spaces are thoughtfully split across the property:
- Ground-Floor Patio: Centers around a dark-finish private pool with a fountain feature, surrounded by lounge chairs and mature plants.
- Rooftop Terrace: Designed as an outdoor living area with built-in seating, teak furniture, a Sunbrella umbrella, and garden planters.
- Main Rooftop: Positioned at the highest point of the home, featuring a second private pool with open jungle views.
Inside, the open-plan living and dining area features exposed wood beam ceilings, steel-framed windows, and a design that connects the main social spaces without losing definition between them. The kitchen is equipped with a full Smeg suite: a 36-inch induction cooktop, convection wall oven, counter-depth refrigerator, and dishwasher. Countertops are Caesarstone. The cabinetry in the kitchen and all bathrooms was built to order in American white oak and Encino.
Craftsmanship Throughout
The furniture in Casa Paloma was designed and made to order by Studio ORYX, a Cancun-based studio founded by architect Re’em Eyal, known for working with noble local woods and producing pieces that are made once, not replicated. The dining table is an inlay of Roble and Tzalam. The primary bed is Roble and Cedro. The 10-foot entry mirror is solid Chechen wood. Additional pieces by KOKKO and VanNor complete the living areas. Every room has its own identity: one in dark tones with a high headboard, another with a geometric artisan headboard in a warm palette, a third with a carved-wood closet.
Bathroom finishes match the same standard: stone vessel sinks, Grohe fixtures, rain showerheads, and handmade ceramic tile backsplashes in each bathroom with its own pattern. Nothing is generic.
Infrastructure for Full-Time Living
Casa Paloma is fully equipped for year-round residence in Tulum with practical utilities built into the design:
- Solar Energy: 13 microinverter solar panels.
- Water Management: Whole-house water softener, 8,000-liter cistern, and dual-source switching between private well and municipal CAPA water.
- Climate Control: 7 air conditioning units, 4 ceiling fans, and 2 dehumidifiers.
- Service & Storage: Dedicated laundry room with a full-capacity LG front-loading washer and dryer, plus built-in storage throughout.
