Vacation at Pablo Escobar’s Retreat: Casa Magna in Tulum, Mexico
The Colombian cocaine kingpin sure did pick a nice spot. Tulum and the Riviera Maya have become Mexico’s hottest destination in the last decade, and it’s little wonder why. The picture-perfect setting of white sandy beaches and turquoise waters, coupled with the easy proximity to the U.S. East Coast, continues to lure vacationers seeking a little piece of paradise. On the secluded coast near Tulum, south of Cancun, a new eco-chic resort called Casa Magna has been making waves. Legend has it that Escobar himself camped out here (and there are the bullet-proof walls, a secret tunnel, and “look-out turrets” to prove it). After the drug lord’s death, the place was abandoned and deteriorated into a mess of concrete… At least until Amansala took on a massive renovation project and created this eco-friendly hideaway touting “rustic luxury.” On this pristine stretch of beach, you’ll find spacious rooms, yoga classes, fitness training, and a restaurant serving the freshest fish and tasty mango margaritas.
