Fodor's Expert Review Hacienda San José
Carretera Tixkobob-Tekanto, Km 30, Yucatán, 97470, Mexico
The perfect base for exploring the Aké ruins and Izamal to the east, as well as Mérida, a short drive west, this restored cattle ranch transports you back in time with its hammock-adorned sitting areas, 18-foot ceilings, exposed beams, wooden double doors, canopy beds, and tile floors. For a truly unique stay, request Room 9, which has a massive ceiba tree growing through its ceiling, or one of the Maya-style palapa villas.
PROS
- authentic hacienda experience
- suites and villas have private plunge pools
- a world-class spa
CONS
- too remote for some
- difficult to find
- just one on-site restaurant (though it serves all meals)
