The property is very beautiful, so no complaints there. However, the WiFi never worked and the room had a TV with only two channels and both had some much noise that they were impossible to watch. Due to the limited dining choices on the property (they only serve breakfast from 7-10 am), we had to eat once across the highway at a very overpriced location. If you have a car, I would recommend driving to Santa Elena or Ticul to find dining options.

Excellent location across from Uxmal ruins. Very interesting history of the Hacienda as well, including famous people such as Queen Elizabeth who stayed there! Breakfast was delicious and pool cocktails were also great. Grounds are beautiful and filled with colorful birds. Staff was accommodating. Don't expect uber modern luxury.

Exceptional Hotel Walk to Uxmal
Loved everything about this hotel. Service was exceptional, warm and helpful. Spacious, lovely room and grounds. Enjoyed reading about the history of the hacienda. Especially appreciated that we could walk a very short distance to Uxmal ruins so we were able to beat the crowds. Breakfast at the hotel had a great selection. Had to walk a short distance for lunch and dinner but enjoyed the food at both of the meals. Highly recommend this hotel.

Quiet and safe place, located very close the Uxmal ruins. Very nice old Hacienda, with lovely gardens and surrounded by nature. Our room had a fantastic view of the adjacent green areas. Bathroom with tub was in excellent condition. Be aware that dinner and lunch are held in the restaurant that is slightly farther from hotel, near the entrance to Uxmal; you'll will need to drive but it's no big deal. Also, pool is not heated. Overall, great experience. We will definitely go back.

Disliked: Staff & service
Advertised wifi but it was barely good enough for email. Service dropped every 30 seconds regardless of which router on the property you sat next too. No bicycles as advertised. Restaurant is only open for breakfast. You have to cross a dangerous road in the dark to get to the only restaurant that's open at the resort by the ruins. Property itself is beautiful and the pool is very nice. We left a day early because without wifi I couldn't work and my wife couldn't study. Property told us they'd give a refund for the 2nd night but have only gotten a run around from them and Expedia who each blame the other but neither will call the other and leave me as the middle man between what he said and what she said. Would not stay there again.

Our last stay was early 2020 before the pandemic. Now it's minimalist There is no lunch or dinner service There is only breakfast service by the pool There is no lunch or dinner available requiring you to walk or drive across the highway or down the road No welcome drink, as advertised If television is important, forget it. Only 3 snowy channels with an antenna, not satellite, as advertised Some rooms have a safe, others do not, so you may want to check/specify when booking The staff is friendly and attentive.

We enjoyed our stay at The Hacienda. Our rooms were clean, the bedding was great, and staff was courteous and helpful, but they allowed a family to play ball in the pool. This family was playing rough and tangled my 5-year-old in their playful brawl. My husband asked them to be careful but they continued. There was enough staff around to notice and no one jumped in to stop them. It was a shame. It made my experience unpleasant especially since I mentioned it to the reception and the family continued their game with a ball the next day. I didn’t bother to enter the pool again.
