It is the most convenient place right across from the ruins at Uxmal. The staff is very friendly and cares about you - they want you to enjoy your time with them. The lodge is old style Mexico with some modern amenities like air conditioning, small refrigerators in room, TVs and jacuzzi tubs. Thus, you get the charm of the old wooden doors, tile floors, wooden slat windows and great bird calls to awaken you, but you have a comfortable bed with air conditioning for hot nights. We very much...
My first 2 choices of hotel were full so I tried this hotel and am so pleased I did. It’s a beautiful jungle retreat, a bit hidden, without loud billboards promoting itself. Super clean, friendly staff, WiFi , good breakfast. The staff are locals which was great. At this point only breakfast is offered so be aware you have to go out to dinner or bring snacks. No refer in rooms. Having a car is helpful but not absolutely necessary.. I came by Uber and left by city bus. I’m a solo female traveler...
This is the best hotel in Tekax, bar none. I stayed here for the first time last year for the yearly Rey del Sur bike race when they had just opened. Staying here again was a no brainer especially since they allowed all cyclists which practically booked the entire hotel a late check out at no charge. Highly recommend. You will not regret booking this property.
