Lovely and huge hacienda. Nicest people ever. Be prepared it will be a different experience but you will come back as a more relaxed person.

It's a beautiful and peaceful natural place that is perfect for relaxation. The free-standing rooms are spacious, quiet, and well-appointed. The food is delicious and the staff are friendly and helpful.

We initially came for the beauty and the quiet. We came back (although we had different plans!) for the delicious food, the kind and caring staff, the meditative atmosphere that allows to truly rest and overall the soul of the place. Extraordinary.

Incredible, peaceful, and beautiful place. A great mix of jungle, hacienda ruins, posh facilities, and a healing, new age vibe. Quite remote, but that is part of the intrigue. The food is also incredible (even my husband, who is a dedicated carnivore, was floored by it. All the staff was fantastic and very thoughtful about the experience they wanted to create. Wish we stayed longer to get to relax and unwind in such a special spot.

It was an experience I recommend to anyone seeking a relaxed vibe. I cannot describe how AMAZING this place was. All i can say mother nature is all over, alot of beautiful history and the best part of all the connection we absorb within is indescribable. No tv no alcohol. The food was vegan DELICIOUS and no i am not vegan but now i am considering it thanks to this beautiful place.

This was an amazing experience and the highlight of our trip. The hotel is nested in the jungle of Yucatan: luscious vegetation, old ruins that witness the passage of the Mayans, a Franciscan community and an old hacienda. Is exquisitely remodelled to blend with the surroundings, with modern and airy architecture, many beautiful pools, and walkable paths. The food is amazing and healthy and the staff warm, welcoming and efficient. We have the impression that is more than a hotel: we noticed various groups of guests in yoga and meditation retreats, coexisting with tourists like us in harmony and respect.

This is an extraordinary place, but it is not for everyone. If you are looking for silence, a place for reflexion, a place where you can hear the sounds of nature, and see the stars at night, this is it. The grounds are impeccably maintained, the service is excellent and non-intrusive. We stayed in a suite (a little house), the excellent design shows everywhere. There is only one restaurant, the food is vegetarian, simple and excellent. The swimming pools are wonderful, and just exploring and listening to the thousands of birds in the jungle is amazing. If you are looking for loud music, alcohol and lots of people this is the wrong place.

Una de las mejores experiencias que hemos tenido, Yamil, Ricardo, Doris y Zacil y todo el staff nos atendieron super increíbles. Las habitaciones son muy cómodas y relajantes y toda la hacienda es enorme, necesitas más de 2 dias para explorarla y disfrutar todo lo que ofrece. Es una experiencia diferente a todas, aquí vienes a despejarte y relajarte si estas dispuesto a disfrutar de la naturaleza. Lo mejor de todo son los alimentos, no te imaginas lo rico que se come. Agradezco el servicio que recibimos y volveremos el siguente año. Super recomendado
