Strategically located next to a typical Mayan community, Hacienda Santa Rosa welcomes guests to share in their culture and traditions. Surrounded by charms such as the Celestún Biosphere Reserve, Calcehtok Caves, and Oxkintok. In 1998, the Hacienda was restored and transformed into a hotel with the vision of providing a full immersion into the historical and biocultural richness of the Mayan world. After a meticulous restoration process, the original architectural features were preserved; ancient Mayan construction techniques and materials were reclaimed. Adapting spaces for hotel functions, the splendor of the past was preserved, respecting existing proportions. Upon arrival, you'll notice the celestial blue of the Main House, where the atmosphere of the sisal haciendas has endured. In the Main House, you'll find the exclusive Taller Maya boutique, featuring creations designed especially for our guests, connecting Mayan wisdom with contemporary design and supporting fair trade.
The spa, also located in the Main House, our spa therapists possess ancient Mayan knowledge called "sobada," with the ability to heal through their hands. This unique technique not only offers guests a healing process but also immerses them in a magical experience. Here, the rest of the spirit merges with the millennia-old tradition of the Maya, creating an environment where well-being intertwines with ancestral heritage.

Absolutely loved our stay at the hacienda. Everybody was so friendly and tolerant of my awful Spanish! Caesar gave us a really interesting tour and history of the hacienda and it was amazing to hear his plans for things like English lessons in the village (how did the first lesson go Caesar!?) The food was delicious, cocktails great, the room was amazing with a really comfortable and huge bed. The pool wasn’t too cold at all, and it’s so pretty. The hacienda was a perfect quiet secluded hide away, but still within reach of places like cenotes and Uxmal.

This Hacienda is stunning and completely relaxing! The grounds are gorgeous and the rooms elegant. The two pools are perfect! The restaurant serves delicious food and the drinks were perfect. The bedding is comfortable and the linens very high end. The staff is kind and helpful!

The king suite room I booked had sewage problems, making the room smell terribly. The air conditioning didn't cool the room down in the middle of summer and was extremely noisy so couldn't sleep. Since it wasn't cooling the room anyways I turned it off.. And then it dripped water on the floor all night. Additionally the refrigerator didn't actually keep anything cool. A big problem on a hot summer day. They offered to give me a discounted rate for two additional days for a different Room. Upon checkout they actually charged me 30 percent higher than the booking.com rate instead of a discounted rate. Really bad on this part. Fidel is a shining star in the property and Fatima gave a amazing massage.

Stayed for one night at Hacienda Santa Rosa as part of a four month tour of central America. t is an oasis of tranquility in the Yucatan province south west of the city of Merida. Easily accessible given that it is within 15km by car/taxi of Estacion Tren Maya Maxcanu. From the welcome upon arrival to the goodbye upon leaving the entire 24 hours spent at the Hacienda will remain memorable. The staff were excellent, there to assist but never imposing; the rooms were excellent and they provide a real sense of how life was for the wealthy owners of the estate during the colonical years; and the facilities were excellent from the well maintained gardens to way in which the staff retained the connection with the past. During the day you can walk the gardens or relax by the pool. It is luxury without the fanfare. I highly recommend a visit even if only for one night to experience the slow pace of the old colonial world.
