December 31 & January 1, 2025



Begin the new year in a sanctuary where time softens, the horizon widens, and the spirit remembers itself.
At Ikal, New Year’s Eve is not simply a date on the calendar: it is a passage. A threshold marked by firelight, ocean breath, ancestral energy, and the gentle rhythm of the jungle. This is a place where the year ends in stillness and begins in ceremony; where the body unwinds, the mind clears, and the heart becomes receptive again.


As the final sunset of the year sinks into the sea and the night gathers its quiet glow, Ikal invites you into a moment of reflection and resonance. Here, the transition is deliberate. You look back with gratitude, look forward with clarity, and meet the present with intention. NYE at Ikal is for those who seek meaning in the pause  who want to step into 2026 feeling aligned, restored, and connected to something deeper.


The Experience

The celebration unfolds over two days, crafted to nurture every layer of your being.
Expect a complete wellness calendar with more than 15 sessions, each one designed to attune your energy for the year ahead: rom grounding yoga practices to sound journeys, breathwork rituals, temazcalli, and cacao gatherings that open the heart. Movement and meditation flow like water, creating space inside you for something new to emerge.


Our exclusive New Year’s Dinner honors the season with dishes shaped by warmth, earth, and festive tradition. A menu prepared with intention, celebrating honest flavor, local essence, and the joy of gathering.


And throughout your stay, you are embraced by a true Mayan paradise inside Parque del Jaguar, a protected sanctuary where ancient trees, wildlife pathways, and the Caribbean’s turquoise expanse create a setting unlike anywhere else.This is the essence of Conscious Luxury: presence elevated, simplicity revered, and each moment woven with elegance, purpose, and soul.

NYE Dinner at Maïa

The final dinner of the year becomes a ritual in itself.
At Maïa, our culinary philosophy blends festive seasonality with coastal ingredients, creating dishes that feel both grounding and celebratory. Each plate is an offering warm spices, bright flavors, and textures that evoke comfort, joy, and intention.


It is a meal meant to be savored slowly, surrounded by the glow of candlelight, conversation, and the anticipation of what’s to come.


ARENA NYE

La Reunion


Dance into 2026 under the open sky.
After dinner at Ikal, the celebration continues at Arena, our sister venue, with a luminous New Year’s Eve led by RYX, joined by PoloCorp, Christian Löffler, Cosmo Gonik, and Adán V.
Music becomes the tide that carries you into the new cycle,  deep, warm, and expansive.


Guests staying at Ikal enjoy exclusive access benefits and complimentary transfers between both venues.A seamless flow: restore at Ikal, celebrate at Arena, enter the year renewed.


Stay at the Mayan Paradise

Staying at Ikal Tulum means inhabiting the heart of Parque del Jaguar, one of Tulum’s most sacred natural spaces. Here, mornings begin with Caribbean sunrises that paint the sea in gold, and nights fall under a sky so clear it feels like an ancient story being retold.

Our organic cabañas echo the curves of nature, architecture inspired by Mayan forms, built with natural materials, and shaped to blend gently into the jungle. The wind moves through wooden textures, the ocean hums nearby, and the silence carries a kind of wisdom you can feel in your breath.

It is a place where luxury is measured not only in comfort, but in connection: connection to nature, to presence, and to yourself.

Begin a New Year with a Renewed Spirit

New Year’s Eve at Ikal is an invitation to begin again: softly, consciously, beautifully.
To step into 2026 with a renewed spirit, a clear heart, and a grounded sense of purpose.
To let go of heaviness, reclaim energy, and meet the new year not as a rush, but as an awakening.

Here, the transition is ceremonial. The night holds space. The sea whispers possibility.
And you emerge restored, expanded, and ready for the year ahead.


This year, choose a beginning that nurtures your essence.
Choose the pause. Choose the ritual. Choose Ikal.
