How Yves Naman Redefines Luxury with Sustainable Retreats

Yves Naman, the founder of Namron Hospitality, has built a collection of sustainable, boutique hotels across Mexico that reflect his dedication to blending luxury with local culture. His properties, such as La Valise Tulum, La Valise San Miguel, and XELA, focus on preserving the natural environment and incorporating indigenous materials and traditional building techniques. For example, La Valise Tulum features local chukum stucco and palapa roofs, while XELA, the latest addition to the portfolio, offers a tranquil retreat with stunning views of both the Mayan jungle and the Caribbean Sea. Each property emphasizes an intimate, nature-focused experience, with fewer than 20 rooms to create a more personal and exclusive atmosphere.

Naman’s commitment to sustainability extends beyond construction, as he incorporates local artisans, cuisine, and practices into each hotel’s offerings. His properties, including Bespoke in Tulum and Radhoo in the jungle, also focus on providing peaceful escapes where guests can disconnect and immerse themselves in the surrounding beauty. Naman’s hotels are designed to be more than just places to stay—they are meant to be genuine cultural experiences, where visitors can feel the unique spirit of each destination. As his brand grows, Naman plans to expand into other global markets, with future properties in Miami and Mexico City's Roma Sur neighborhood.
