My husband and I have visited the Yucatan annually for the last seven years. We have now found a new spot that we will return to. The beautiful hotel with the attentive yet not hovering owners and staff was a quiet and refreshing way for us to start our vacation. We loved the room with our little patio area in... More

My two teen sons and I stayed here in late April when temperatures were absolutely stultifying. We arrived early via bus from Merida, and Harald was kind enough to let us check in since no one had used or room the night prior. After scrambling on pyramids in the hottest part of the day, the pretty pool was heaven sent!... More

Harald and Sonia have created a wonderful place. The food and drinks were excellent and the breakfast was of the charts.The rooms are all different in a creative way, you can't go wrong no matter which room you may choose. The grounds are beautiful with a wonderful variety of plants and trees.Great for a walk, any time of day. Looking... More

These impeccable grounds are reason enough to return. This wonderful little hotel has been lovingly restored by hotel professional Harold and his lovely wife. Their food is outstanding and a great bit of luxury in an otherwise not so well tourist-supported (but lovely) town of Izamal. We would not have stayed anywhere else. Muchas gracias.

Owner Harald and his wife Sonia have some experience in the hotel business and have put a lot of labor and thought into developing what had been a run-down hacienda into a lovely hotel. Our room had a beautiful bathroom in which the shower area was enclosed by a natural stone wall, lit by a skylight, with live plants growing... More

Wow.... Initially I was skeptical seeing only excellent and good reviews on Tripadvisor . However upon arriving and experiencing the hotel and the staff all I can say is hats off, thanks for a great stay and we shall be definitely back!

An oasis! We loved it! Izamal has a magical "World Heritage" feel to it, and staying in the yard of an Old Hacienda converted horse stable was simply icing on the cake! We will definitely be staying here when we come through the area again. It was a great "pit-stop" between Merida and Cancun.

Although Trip Advisor rated this hotel as tops, I was still amazed. One reason may have been the contradictions. Our room was a converted horse stall in a converted barn. There was no hot water or telephone. It was wonderful! The grounds are gardens. Harald, the owner is an Austrian ex-pat who got tired of the rat race running hotels... More

This hotel is an amazing value on the outskirts of a peaceful town. The owners Harald and Sonia have worked hard to create a relaxing and welcoming atmosphere that we've found in the best B&Bs. Sonia cooked some of the tastiest dinners we had on our trip and Harald laughed at my partner's bad jokes. The room was large and... More

Unfortunately we only travelled through with my in-laws for one night but what a magical place we found! This is a small boutique hotel in middle of Yucatan, between Merida and Cancun so a perfect location to explore all of the ruins, churches, cenotes and Haciendas around! After a few days of travel we walked into the hotel and could... More
