Having visited Chichen Itza twice prior to the visit as a tourist from Merida, which is two hours away, it was so special to stay on-site, explore the ruins in the early morning quiet before the tourist hoards. Hacienda Chichen is a magnificent oasis, a fabulous respite from our adventurous and sometimes bare-bones hotel options throughout the the Yucatan and... More

Amazing hotel nestled in the jungle right next to the ruins of Chichen Itza. If you're looking for a beautiful quiet restful oasis, this is the place.

Stayed for two nights during the fall of 1967. You too will always remember your stay at Hacienda Chichen. Nighttime takes you back to the old days of this place... The peacefulness and the evening stars are most calming while you consider the history of Chichen.

I enjoyed many walks around the beautiful grounds, which include a lovely swimming pool, cave, chapel and farm. The service was excellent and the... More
