Built in the 16th century by Spanish Conquistadors this luxurious Yucatan Hacienda was converted into a hotel 50 years ago. Today, the staff at Hacienda Chichen Resort is devoted to ecological tourism. Maintaining equilibrium on its property by recycling used water and offering biodegradable bath products,
and by having a 99% Mayan staff, this boutique hotel is a retreat rich with culture and beauty. Built on a sacred Mayan land, the famous Chichen Itza ruins and
cenotes are just footsteps away.
Individual cottages were originally constructed in the 1920´s in conjunction with the first Mayan Archaeology Expedition. Occupying less than .08% of the property, these rooms offer privacy and luxurious relaxation. Surrounded by lush, skyscraper tall trees, 150 different species of tropical birds, a filtered
swimming pool, and meals prepared from the hotel’s organic garden will cleanse your body and refresh your mind. Especially unique is chaya, a tropical green
plant particular to this area made into a tasty nourishing drink.
Top off your stay with one of Yaxkin Spa’s holistic treatments, like a purifying sweat bath inside its authentic Mayan cave culminating in a refreshing
shower with drinkable cenotes water. Also available is a beautification ritual with natural beneficial aliments such as coconut, banana leafs, native salts
and aromatic oils.
