It feels surreal to be so close to the ruins, surrounded by history and completely immersed in nature — you really feel like you’re in the middle of the jungle. The grounds are absolutely beautiful, with a classic hacienda style and tons of lush plants everywhere you look. Even though the property is going through some updates, it didn’t take away from our stay at all — it actually feels like the place is growing and coming back to life. The pool area is gorgeous and perfect for cooling off after exploring. The staff was incredible — so friendly and welcoming, they really make you feel like family. They were always happy to chat, help with anything we needed, and even gave great tips on places to visit nearby. The food was a highlight too — fresh, balanced, and tasty any time of day. The drinks were great (and well-priced!), and the desserts, especially the marquesitas, were so good. Our room had a rustic charm, everything worked well, and it was spotlessly clean. We only wish we could have stayed longer. Between the warm hospitality, beautiful setting, and the once-in-a-lifetime experience of staying right next to Chichen Itza, this place is truly special. Highly recommend for anyone wanting to combine history, culture, and a jungle escape. ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/4b4041ea-baaf-4886-9785-a58d421256be-1758988529542.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/962c0f0b-89e6-459f-ac4a-d9b8be96bded-1758988545611.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Ambar Stayed 4 nights in Sep 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Stephen 28 Nov 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities Property is large with plenty of natural space.

This room had TV and Internet signal. ##### Hermes Stayed 1 night in Sep 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Jason 3 Mar 2026 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities This resort stay was amazing and genuinely beyond my expectations. The jungle atmosphere is the whole experience—peaceful, romantic, and nearly effortless from check-in to checkout. If you’re expecting a brand-new, ultra-modern “2025-built” 5-star resort, you’re missing the point of staying within about 1,000 feet of Chichén Itzá and being immersed in nature. The entire site was very clean, and the beds were super comfortable. The staff were nothing but welcoming—friendly and they sparked conversations in a natural way without ever being obtrusive. Service felt easy and relaxed, which is exactly what we wanted. The food was right in line with what we hoped for—solid 4–5 star quality. We stayed in a lodge with a single bed, and the air conditioning was more than adequate (honestly, it was set too cold when we arrived—nice problem to have). No real need for an alarm clock if you sleep with the windows open—the natural sounds are the perfect wake-up call. We visited at the end of February and avoided crowds completely—only about 4–5 cars in the parking lot. It’s far enough from the hustle and bustle of Cancun to truly unwind. I would return without a doubt, and I definitely recommend it to anyone looking for a relaxing, romantic stay in a unique jungle setting near Chichén Itzá. ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/d4eff2af-7139-436c-9a73-3b840659598b-1772570666372.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![Authentic craftsmanship everywhere!](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/582ea612-b207-4bf8-bc70-d76008132bf6-1772570666605.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![Thatched roof with fan](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/537125b9-da4a-45f2-909b-35a56c7de4c1-1772570666596.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![Cozy, romantic resturant on-site](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/1dec28be-77bf-4949-9c1d-d44b5a4a24af-1772570666535.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Jason Stayed 2 nights in Feb 2026 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Matthew 2 Mar 2026 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities Room was very clean. The setting was absolutely beautiful. The food was excellent. The pools were very nice. The staff are super dedicated. Great place. ##### Matthew Stayed 2 nights in Feb 2026 ### 6/10 Okay #### Michaela 21 Feb 2026 Liked: Cleanliness Das Zimmer war groß, es hatte aber ein Kingbett statt der gebuchten 2 Betten. Steckdosen waren nur äußerst wenige vorhanden. Der Lichtschalter für die Deckenbeleuchtung war hinter einem Wandteppich versteckt. Eigentlich ist es ein Hotel zusammen mit dem Mayaland Hotel, Gleise Restaurant und gleiche Pools, nur, dass man in den Bungalows untergebracht wird. Die Anlage wird zur Zeit renoviert. Zudem hatte die Stadt das Wasser für einige Stunden am Nachmittag und dann ab 21 Uhr abgestellt, was die Urlaubs Freude ein wenig schmälerte. Insgesamt für das Geld eher enttäuschend. ##### Michaela Stayed 2 nights in Feb 2026 ### 8/10 Good #### Marlene 6 Jan 2026 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities Las habitaciones son muy lindas, lo unico malo es que me enviaron a una super lejos de todo y de la recepción. Todo lo demás excelente, fue lo que yo esperaba y necesitaba, como experiencia de quedarnos cerca de las ruinas esta padrisimo. ##### Marlene Stayed 1 night in Dec 2025 ### 4/10 Poor #### Ward 12 Nov 2025 Disliked: Cleanliness Old hotel, my grandparents had better facilities during war. ##### Ward Stayed 1 night in Nov 2025 ### 2/10 Terrible #### Gabriela 14 Aug 2025 Liked: Cleanliness Disliked: Staff & service, property conditions & facilities La razón por la que contratamos este hotel fue que se menciona que tiene acceso directo a Chichen Itza, el acceso está cerrado desde hace 5 años. El menú es muy limitado muchas cosas que no tienen porque el hotel acaba de reabrir. ##### Gabriela Stayed 1 night in Aug 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Claudia 22 Mar 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Location is great, air conditioner was a bit of a challenge to get it to the right temperature. The bathroom was outdated ##### Claudia Stayed 2 nights in Mar 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Eugenia 11 Feb 2022 Liked: Staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Bungalows, palapa roofs, food, gardens, pool, view of the Mayan observatory, sunshine, warmth. What’s not to like. ##### Eugenia Stayed 1 night in Feb 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### James 8 Feb 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities This is the only place to stay for a visit to Chichen Itza. They have a five minute shuttle to the archaeological site and will even sell you a ticket before you go so you don’t have to wait in line. Plus it’s a really nice Hacienda style hotel ##### James Stayed 1 night in Feb 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller 10 Jan 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort The place was very unique; we loved the old buildings, beautiful gardens and "old world" atmosphere. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 2 nights in Jan 2022 ### 8/10 Good #### Fernando 10 Jan 2022 Liked: Staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Environment and landscapes ##### Fernando Stayed 2 nights in Jan 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Maria 3 Jan 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Impresionante hotel y el servicio extraordinario El hotel nos sorprendió muchísimo. Espacioso, tranquilo. Todo su personal super cordial y atentos a ayudarnos en todo lo que necesitamos durante los días que estuvimos con ellos. Muy recomendado para descansar, relajar y conocer las extraordinarias bellezas de la zona de Chichen Itza ##### Maria Stayed 2 nights in Dec 2021 ### 8/10 Good #### Edward 2 Jan 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service It's a beautiful place and we enjoyed our stay. For the price, it would be nice to have better amenities in the rooms, and overall the service was very friendly but oddly sparse. That said, we'd recommend it. ##### Edward Stayed 2 nights in Dec 2021 ### 8/10 Good #### Fabian 1 Jan 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities Eco resort next to Chichén itza. Best place to stay in town. Not much else around. ##### Fabian Stayed 2 nights in Dec 2021 ### 10/10 Excellent #### MARIA GRACIELA 29 Dec 2021 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Me gusto el lugar, es hermoso. Luce un poco viejo o pasado de moda el amueblado y la comida no es muy buena ##### MARIA GRACIELA Stayed 1 night in Dec 2021 ### 6/10 Okay #### SHANNON 16 Dec 2021 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Nice...but! There is no internet or TV in the rooms and this is told to you at check in with no sympathy or empathy. Alfonso and Alex in the restaurant were amazing, and so was Sergio the bellman. Nice place to stay when you visit Chichen Itza but be prepared to DISCONNECT. The staff have daily meetings in the middle of the reception area, which is awkward for guests. They should find another place... ##### SHANNON Stayed 1 night in Dec 2021 ### 2/10 Terrible #### Olivier 22 Nov 2021 Disliked: Property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### A 2 star hotel at best Definitely not a 5 star hotel. At best a 2 star. Everything is old, in bad shape and outdated from the 90s. Way overpriced for the service ##### Olivier Stayed 2 nights in Nov 2021 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Allen 20 Nov 2021 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Beautiful and relaxing.

We found the staff very friendly, the restaurant very good, and the room very clean. The property was gorgeous. We could tell the hotel was just reopening post Covid, but we were so pleased we extended 2 nights. You can see parts of Chichen Itza from the lobby. We would come back ##### Verified traveller Stayed 2 nights in Oct 2021 ### 8/10 Good #### Sofia 11 Oct 2021 Liked: Staff & service Staff was great hotel was in decline, could be Covid. ##### Sofia Stayed 3 nights in Oct 2021 ### Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > - [Hotel Rey Carlos](https://www.expedia.co.uk/San-Bartolome-De-Tirajana-Hotels-Hotel-Rey-Carlos.h5065579.Hotel-Information) > - [Helios Hotel - All Inclusive](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Side-Hotels-Helios-Hotel-All-Inclusive.h16139282.Hotel-Information) > - [Nikos BnB](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Rhodes-Hotels-Nikos-Studios.h12718906.Hotel-Information) > - [Hotels near Shikotsu-Toya National Park](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Shikotsu-Toya-National-Park-Hotels.0-l6103734-0.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > - [Alexander Mountain Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Amari-Hotels-Alexander-Gerakari-Hotel.h13394397.Hotel-Information) > - [Hotels near Breach Candy Hospital](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Breach-Candy-Hospital-Hotels.0-l6213498-0.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > - [Landmark 81 Residences Luxury](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Ho-Chi-Minh-City-Hotels-Landmark-81-Residences-Luxury.h107505985.Hotel-Information) > - [5 Star Hotels in Sa Calobra](https://www.expedia.co.uk/5Star-Sa-Calobra-Hotels.s50-0-d6355874.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > - [travelski home classic - Résidence La Muzelle.](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Les-Deux-Alpes-Hotels-Skissim-Classic-Residence-La-Muzelle.h59180853.Hotel-Information) > - [Cheap Hotels in Taunton](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Taunton-Hotels-Budget-Hotels.0-0-d5708-tBudgetHotels.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > - [Columbus](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Rome-Hotels-Columbus.h48594.Hotel-Information) > - [5 Star Hotels in Frodsham](https://www.expedia.co.uk/5Star-Frodsham-Hotels.s50-0-d6126073.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > - [Zantiis Ndol Villas](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Muak-Lek-Hotels-Ndol-Streamside-Thai-Villas.h4326981.Hotel-Information) > - [Hotels near Heaton Park](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Heaton-Park-Hotels.0-l507970-0.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) ### Flights > - [Flights from Paisley (GLA) to Mostar (OMO)](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flights/gla/omo/glasgow-to-mostar) > - [Flights from San Francisco (SFO) to Ezeiza (EZE)](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flights/sfo/eze/san-francisco-to-buenos-aires) ### Cars ### Packages > - [Heritage Park Stadium](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Heritage-Park-Stadium-Bishop-Auckland.d553248621561944176.Attraction) > - [Cairo Holidays](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cairo.d178243.Holidays-City-Breaks) > - [Lancaster Castle](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Lancaster-Castle-Lancaster.d6087917.Attraction) > - [Malapascua Island Holidays](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Malapascua-Island.d6141589.Holidays-City-Breaks) ### General > - [Visit Elviria](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Marbella-Elviria.dx3000389522) > - [Visit Fauske](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Fauske.dx4436) > - [Visit Bacton](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Bacton.dx6084861) ---
