The Last Resort: La Valise Tulum

On this episode of The Last Resort, host Christina Jelski talks to Maurice Smith, founder of Eugene Toriko, and Courtnie Nichols, CEO and founder of TravelBash, about Namron Hospitality's La Valise Tulum in Mexico. 

Smith and Nichols talk about the property's Instagram-worthy "rolling beds" and key differences between the resort's beachfront wing and more recently added jungle accommodations, as well as why the La Valise Tulum is a perfect launchpad for couples seeking peace and privacy, but also easy access to nearby restaurants and nightlife. The two also talk about Tulum's explosive growth and the destination's diverse array of hospitality options.
