“All human beings need spiritual commitment. Otherwise they become counting machines and believe that every aspect of nature is no more than an instrument that can be operated, mended or replaced.“

– SIR JAMES GOLDSMITH

Created by Sir James Goldsmith, knighted for his services to ecology, the once private estate is now open as a destination for discerning travelers. Cuixmala is located on Mexico’s breathtaking Pacific Coast, in the state of Jalisco. Río Cuixmala courses along its southern border, from its northern boundary, vast hills look out over the coconut plantation towards the Pacific Ocean, and to the east, bamboo groves and mango trees number in their thousands.

The coastline affords a variety of rich landscape at Cuixmala. There are an array of beaches, from picture-postcard tranquility, to rocky bluffs jutting out into the powerful Pacific. The landscape ranges from lush jungle, coconut palm groves and lagoons, to sweeping savannah and grasslands. Integrated with respect into these different environments are not only the main house of Casa Cuixmala, but three large villas, six bungalows, and ten casitas. Guests immerse in these surroundings from the comfort of their accommodation, by the beach, or by embarking on one of many recreational past times, from riding horseback through the coconut plantations, snorkeling from Playa Caleta Blanca, or visiting our vast Biodynamic farm. Visit the different pages on this site to learn more about the elements that comprise Cuixmala.

“Nothing is more exciting than seeing a house that looks like a fantasy movie. This is the feeling when seeing Casa Cuixmala but the environment is even more idyllic than the construction.“
