Just across the street from the Uxmal Pyramids, and a 40 minutes' drive from Merida. This historic resort offers an outdoor pool and a working plantation filled with fruit trees and jogging trails.

The building itself and the garden is fantastic. Absoluetly stunning. We enjoyed the pool in the evening.
The ruins are very close.
Set a 2-minute walk from the traditional village of Santa Elena, The Pickled Onion Eco-Boutique B&B features charming thatched bungalows, an outdoor pool and a restaurant.

Characterful place which we enjoyed thoroughly. Sweet family rooms - comfortable beds. Pool was great for children. Hospitality was exceptional - thank you all for taking care of us. Recommend buying some of the locally produced organic honey- so tasty! Breakfast was delicious.
Posada El Jardín is an eco-friendly property that offers free Wi-Fi in public areas, sun terraces by the outdoor pool, and a palapa that serves coffee for a fee.

Perfect location, hideaway in the village, surprisingly quiet. Nice pool in the middle of a garden. The host was always ready to please you. Authentic village with plenty to discover around. Would go back
Spent about 3 hours at Uxmal site. Lots of large sites to see and you can wander at your own pace. It was my favorite of the sites we visited on the trip. Tickets and entry could be clearer and signage at sites in Mexico is always lacking, but the quality of the ruins and architecture is fantastic. The scale, intimacy of the visit, and amount of ruins is superb.

To really get to experience Mayan culture, the near by towns and cenotes and more archeological sites I would recommend a week in Uxmal .
I loved every minute we were there .
I would also recommend having a much spending money as possible, not because things are expensive it is that there is so much to do and it will cost money .
Horse riding , vintage 4WD hire , the prices for the sites and tours has risen due to the pandemic .
Also supporting local artists .

The site is wonderful and the hotel was surrounded by orchards birds flowers amazing palms. A couple of small interesting local museums with animals local Mayan customs and chocolate cultivation. The Lodge restaurant which also belonged to the hacienda estate was a short walk and of a high standard.

We traveled by car because my older sister has specific food needs due to ALS. A blender, two boxes of food and a cooler were graciously hauled to and from our room by the hotel staff. They could not have been more accommodating and helped to supplement her diet with fresh food from the kitchen.
It was my sister's fifth and probably final trip to the awe inspiring sites of the Yucatan. We are so grateful for the experience.

Uxmal charges US citizen 4 times regular admission.
Uxmal charges US citizen 4 times regular admission. Hotel Uxmal Maya charges 33% more for using US money or cards. Do not go if you don’t want to feel ripped off. Nothing special about hotel as at every turn you have to be guarded about being ripped off.

The bed was very firm and the hot water took a little longer than I would like but everything else was just fantastic. The food was amazing the staff tried to help us find anything we were looking for. It was a nice welcoming place to stay
Die to COVID and off-season Casa del Mago was closed and we received a free upgrade to the LODGE right opposite to the entry of Uxmal ruins.
It was an amazing experience in a well kept park-like resort. Several buildings with a palmtree-roof-look make it very comfortable, with large rooms (the rounded corner rooms especially) well equipped with everything one can think of, spacious bath room, helpful staff, a good restaurant and Last but not least two different pool areas made it one of our best stays in Mexico!
Everything - from start to finish - was great. We were met by the concierge while still in the car, who spoke good English and walked us through the process of registering and getting the room key. The place was nearly empty - assuming due to the Covid scare - so we shared the entire complex (a fairly large property) with maybe 10 other couples / families. It was like having your own private resort. There were probably just as many staff working as there were guests, so everything was in tip-top shape.
ok, this is a spectacular place to stay on so many levels. The staff was helpful way beyond expectations. The location was perfect for touring the ruins. The food and service was excellent. The grounds were beautiful. we had a wonderful room with plenty of hot water and a coffee maker. Well worth the price. I hope we can stay again sometime.
It is a beautiful hotel, traditional but well-decorated rooms. Great swimming pool. Location is superb. Staff is very friendly. And you must have dinner here, best I had in Mexico! Sidenote: we were upgraded to the Lodge, so this is more a review of The Lodge.
The staff were exceptionally nice and have attended all of our requests. They provided an upgrade to the Lodge at Uxmal as Hacienda was being restored. Also upgraded the room to ensure that everything was to our liking. Customer focus at its best!
This is my favorite hotel in Mexico and I have traveled all through the country
I have staying here since the late 70s and it never disappointments. It is an oasis with a great swimming pool, important after a hot day exploring Mayan sites
The location within the jungle and proximity to Uxmal, archaeological site; the swimming pool. The elder attendant that helped carry my luggage out to my car. That there was an on-site free parking lot.
Being low season, they upgraded us to the Lodge location, very convenient for Uxmal (opposite to the entrance). The room, with a spa bath; the plunge in the swimming pools. The restaurant and the staff.
that location is ideal for visiting the ruins. You can walk to them. And the Palapa bar and restaurant is very relaxing and so is the pool. The grounds are beautiful. Staff was very helpful.
Maybe the hotel was a resort in the past, today it's an old hotel and it needs some TLC. They should pay more attention to the details, that is what hospitality is about.
Perfect location for Uxmal walking distance. Beautifully landscaped garden and large pool in historic and beautifully maintained hacienda. Courteous staff.
The hotel is located close to the entrance to Uxmal. The pool was huge, clean, and no one else in it when we were there. Our room was very comfortable.
