Elegant, exclusive and exotic Mexican mansions
These beautifully restored country estates are near Mérida, in the heart of the Yucatán peninsula, within striking distance of the Caribbean coast.
The restoration is sensitive to the buildings’ history, using strikingly subdued colours. The result is a once-in-lifetime romantic holiday experience, a secluded escape away from the bustle of cities - yet with easy access to the stone pyramids of the Maya civilization.
Holidays
There are 4 separate haciendas within 1-2 hours’ drive of one another, and we recommend combining two or more - using either private guides, or hiring a car. Flexibility is the key word, and the number of nights you stay (or haciendas you stay in) is up to you.
Our Comment
Is it more expensive than staying in a comfortable city hotel? Yes. Extravagant? No - we think you’ll agree it’s worth every penny.
Sample trip - The Puuc Experience
Daily from Mérida
5 days, 4 nights
This option involves a pair of 2-night stays at any two of the following three haciendas - San José, Santa Rosa or Temozón. Includes return transfers by car from Mérida, and daily breakfast.
Although any hacienda you choose will provide the perfect ambience for relaxation, Temozón also offers the use of a small gym and a tennis court and provides cycle hire, if you can drag yourself away from its truly magnificent pool.
