Pros:

L’estetica meravigliosa della struttura

Cons:

Il ritorno la sera è stato disagiante e complicato, in quanto l’hotel si trova in un complesso chiuso, e alcune strade di accesso vengono sbarrate

Overall, my stay was very good; I would come back!
Pros:

Overall, the place is very good great for anyone who appreciates a vintage, handcrafted 1980s-style Decor; I liked this new version. The gentleman who greets you is very attentive at all times.

Cons:

Just two small things I noticed: the entrance to the location is a bit tricky it’s easy to get a little lost and the air conditioning has to be turned off when you leave the room, plus it doesn't cool very well while you're inside. But these are things that can be fixed; otherwise, everything was great!

Un pequeño secreto muy cerca de Xcaret.
Pros:

La Hacienda Hotel Xcaret no es un hotel convencional de Playa del Carmen. Está junto a Xenses, escondido en medio de la selva, y llegar allí tiene algo de descubrimiento. Cruzas la entrada y la primera pregunta sale sola: ¿dónde estoy?

Porque La Hacienda tiene algo difícil de explicar. Es íntima, diferente, casi secreta. Un pequeño oasis con personalidad propia, alejado por completo de la lógica de los grandes resorts de la Riviera Maya.

Y luego están ellos. Skip es uno de los personajes más encantadores que hemos conocido en el Caribe mexicano: discreto, cercano y con ese talento poco común de hacerte sentir en casa sin invadir jamás tu espacio. Nora se ocupa de que todo esté bien y Santos, de que nada falle.

Nos alojamos en la suite Los Arcos y fue, sencillamente, mágica.

Pero hay algo que no aparece en las fotos: las conversaciones. Hablad con ellos, preguntadles, dejaos recomendar. Conocen lugares, rincones y experiencias que merece la pena descubrir.

Hay sitios a los que vas a dormir. Y hay otros que, casi sin darte cuenta, se convierten en parte del viaje. La Hacienda es uno de ellos.

Cons:

Todo ha sido perfecto.

Pros:

Endroit très dépaysant. Chambres originales. A l''extérieur on se croirait dans la jungle.
A côté vous avez un établissement excellent pour petit-déjeuner, de même qu'un restaurant.

Cons:

A l'intérieur de la chambre une humidité ambiante très désagréable, de même que l'odeur et impossible de faire fonctionner la climatisation en mode chauffage pour assécher la pièce.
Un petit conseil : propreté du frigo à améliorer et surtout le dégivrer de temps en temps...
