We stayed at Hacienda Viva Sotuta de Peon for 2 nights (Nov. 29th to Dec. 1st/2022). It was an absolutely lovely stay with great service and very comfortable lodgings. We had booked a King Deluxe cabin with its own dipping pool and it was very private, quiet and looked out onto the hennequin fields. The bed was super comfortable and the shower was huge with lots of hot water. The grounds of the Hacienda hotel complex are beautiful and laid out in a very walkable manner, with wide paths branching off to the pool, the restaurant, reception, etc. Everyone at the front desk was very helpful, especially Jasmine and the manager, Ivan. He was a great guy and nice to converse with and had a good sense of humour. The pool was huge and we were the only ones using it the afternoon we went for a swim. The restaurant is spacious and covered with a palapa roof with nice hand crafted light fixtures. It was a buffet style with many options to choose from and they bring juice, tea, coffee to your table. The cochinita pibil at dinner was excellent! Everyone was polite and helpful no matter who they were. We booked the "Jet's a Wool" massage for both of us and it was heaven! My head, arms and feet never felt so good! It was done outdoors, seated on chairs beside the old freight train car. We also booked the Sisal Plus Tour to see the old Hacienda buildings preserved as a museum, the working machinery to make the sisal rope and then an hour swim at the underground cenote on the premises. Our guide Ivan (popular name, lol) was very passionate in his explanations of the stages of hennequin (green gold) processing and the history of the haciendas in the Yucatan. The cenote swim was fantastic and nice to cool down in the humidity. We were transported by the horse drawn truks on the rails that are all over the property and that in itself was such a fun experience. The Sisal Plus Tour included a 4 course meal/lunch back at the restaurant at the end of the tour (otherwise you have to pay for snacks and drinks) if you don't choose this option - we felt since we were actually staying at the hotel, it was worth it as this would be a full lunch for us. I highly recommend staying here for a few nights to get the feel of Hacienda history and to enjoy the property, as opposed to just booking a tour for a few hours. It was really nice to start out our 2 week Mexican vacation at the Hacienda, allowing us to decompress in the calmer, natural surroundings before heading off to explore Merida for an extended stay in the city. Thank-you again to everyone at Hacienda Viva Sotuta de Peon for a memorable experience! …

Amazing property, luxurious yet rustic, great food, great cocktails, fantastic historical tour of henequen production facilities. Attentive staff. Tours were limited to small numbers of visitors. Rooms were separate units, included a sink, shower and toilet in separate compartments, and were spacious, cool, and quiet. There were enough lights to accommodate bedside reading, and enough outlets to charge up all of our devices.

We learned all about the history and production of Henequen, as well as a little about Mezcal, & Tequila. Is tour walks you through the plantation and how the Henequen is harvested and developed into rope. You also get a touch of Mayan culture and get to swim the best cenote in the world! And…. We now know Every tequila is a Mezcal but not every Mezcal is a tequila!

We chose the ten am tour and were fortunate to go on a cooler day. It would probably be quite hot there in the spring and summer. What a lovely property! Our tour guide, Juan, spoke perfect English and was informative throughout the tour. There is a lot of walking and stairs up into the hacienda museum, so it may be difficult for people with problems walking or using canes. We really enjoyed the history of the hacienda and then learning about the henequen production. Not only do they demonstrate all aspects of the henequen production as it was originally done totally by hand, they also walk you through the machine production, demonstrating how many of the machines work. Then you hop aboard a “truck” pulled by a mule for a trip through the henequen fields, arriving at an old Maya house to meet an elderly man who has worked at the hacienda since his youth. Then on the truck to a lovely blue water sparkling cenote underground for an hour long swim or rest. For those not interested in the cenote, there is a bar for drinks and several areas to sit and relax. The cenote was relaxing and refreshing, not too cold! One you are floating inside, it looks much larger than from the stairs to enter the cave. It was a wonderful tour and we would definitely go back again!…

This schedule worked really well for an overnight stay: We booked a 1pm tour, so arrived about 12:30 so we could eat light sandwiches we brought with us. We had our cenote-swimming bag ready to go too. (You do have to haul that around as you walk the tour, so keep it light.) Tour is excellent and the cenote wonderful as others have said. Back to the casita for cocktails (there's a tiny fridge so BYOB), a break and a walk around the beautiful grounds. Dinner was very nice, but take note: it was a fixed-price (about 400 MXN each) with one choice of salad, one of soup, two main courses, and 4 desserts. All were excellent but the small selection surprised us. Perhaps there are more choices at peak seasons; I don't know. A quiet night in the casita (this is not a place with lots to do!). Someone else mentioned the loud air conditioner and I'll confirm that; it's like the contractor installed industrial units designed for offices. Bring ear plugs; you'll be fine. The main pool is VAST. Photos taken with wide-angle lenses always make pools look bigger, so look at a satellite picture. Two big end sections are shallow for kids; big center section is DEEP. Someone wrote there's nowhere to drive to for sightseeing; you're not far from Ticul (town of shoes and pottery) and the Pu'uc and Convent Routes. But mainly Sotuta is a place to get away from everything.…

Very cool experience. A little too expensive- definitely charging gringo prices so that took away from the experience. We loved the cenotes, so definitely bring a bathing suit. And non slip shoes because it’s very steep going down! There’s also nowhere to buy drinks until u get to the cenote, so bring water.

This tour of a an actual 160 year old working sisal hacienda was a wonderful Experience , a must see , the centre to swim in at the end of the tour is most refreshing . Ivan was our guide and he did a wonderful job of explaining and answering questions in both Spanish and English . We found it difficult to drive to And find tho , better driving directions and GPS coordinates on the advertisements and website would be a great addition

Wonderful tour by knowledgeable interpreter. It was nice to see old hacienda and how sisal is made from agave plant on machinery that’s over 100 yrs old. The restaurant had wonderful food. We all enjoyed our time here.

This was our one high end selection on a 2+ week vacation to Campeche/Yucatan. We had our own luxurious cabin with great bed, our own pool, coffee of course, and all the other usual amenities. But there were two issues: the noise outside beginning about 7 am and from one of the two restaurants until very very late (I suppose about midnight); and no TV. I understand the concept, but for that money I want my TV. And besides, there is nothing to do nearby if we were to go for a drive. But it was a nice spa-like experience. My wife had a half hour massage, which she liked. The tour of the old henequen / sisal facility was the main reason for the visit and it did not disappoint. I wanted to learn about the history of the industry and I got a lot out of it. The lunch at the end of the tour was great, reasonable priced believe it or not, and if I was a local would dine there periodically. The tour was three hours, and ended with an hour at a wonderful cenote where we had the option of swimming and/or hanging out at a bar outside and/or the massage. It don't think I would come back if in the area again .... unless of course they supply me with a TV and do something about the noise.…

The first thing you'll find in this hotel is a frond desk staff trying to race the hotel fair. The second thing you will find in this hotel's rooms is a noise a/c that will make you feel like you are sleeping cheap motel. Also you will find bored people at the hotel bar because there are not many guest or things to do around. It is hard to arrive here from Merida going through many little ugly towns and narrow roads. The scenery is pretty enough but if feels to arranged for tourist (not the hacienda experience I was expecting). In other words, you can find more interesting things than this and the relation price/quality will disappoint you.
