Unvergesslich
Pros:

Die Hacienda ist ein paradiesischen Fleckchen Erde. Wunderbar zum Entspannen. Die Pools sind der Knaller. Insgesamt wild romantisches Flair ohne Luxus aber mit viel Charme und Herz.

Cons:

Hacienda + Cenote = amazing Yucatecan experience
Pros:

Everything was perfect. This hacienda is very beautiful. The rooms are comfortable and spacious. We loved the swimming pools and the private cenote even more! We appreciated the restaurant which serves delicious home-made Yucatecan regional food. All staff were extremely friendly and our son loved the kittens too. We got great recommendations for day trips from here: the village of Oxkutzcab and the Oxkintok Mayan ruins and caves. We had a wonderful time and would love to go back. Thank you for all.

A highlight of our travels around Mexico.
Pros:

Unique opportunity to stay at a hacienda with; lots of history (machinery still remains from the sisal production), it’s very own cenote and in comfortable rooms with plenty of character. Carlos and the staff were very friendly and helpful. Carlos told us loads about the history of the site as well as helpful local recommendations including a great restaurant for lunch. Carlos also arranged for us to have chicken with mole sauce which we were keen to try. The food was home cooked and excellent. We really enjoyed our stay thank you. Highly recommend for a unique and restful experience.

Pros:

Fast alleine auf diesem verwunschenen Anwesen und eine private Zinote waren das Highlight. Essen wird auf Bestellung frisch gekocht und serviert.

Cons:

Das Personal spricht großteils kein Englisch, weiß sich aber mit dem Handy zu helfen.

Pros:

This is an exceptional place. I walked around it open-mouthed at the beauty. The gigantic trees, the ancient farm machinery, the sense of history - we felt very very lucky to stay here. A bonus is that the staff are amazing, we were looked after by the sweetest women who were gentle and kind to us and our kids, including when our youngest ran headfirst into a table within minutes of arriving. And to top it all off, the cenote onsite was a wonderful surprise and we had it all to ourselves - so memorable.

Cons:

Nothing

Pros:

El servicio muy atento, todos bien amables. Me gusto el espacio de las hamacas afuera y seguro que la alberca es muy bien utilisado en dias de calor pero desafortunadamente nos toco mucho frio y se corto la electricidad un tiempito. Muy lindo para caminar alrededor.

Cons:

La hacienda es muy linda y se nota que la estan arreglando pero si falta bastante - no esta tan lista y linda como muestran las fotos. El precio me parece demasiado elevado! Fuimos viajando por Yucatan y se nos hizo uno de los hoteles mas caros y con las facilidades mas basicas de todas. Los asientos en la sala de comer son bien incomodos y no te invita a pasar tiempo alli, la comida esta bien pero considerando que los huespedes no tienen otra opcion de comida pensaria que podrian mejorar la calidad. Y por el precio tan elevado te dan un desayuno continental - pan, cafe y fruta, si quieres huevos o algo mas hay que pagar. No habia nada mal pero por ese precio uno espera muuuucho mas entonces nos fuimos un poco frustrados. Bajen sus precios por $1mil la noche y alli si podria estar mejor.

An authentic hacienda
Pros:

This was a delightful stay, we should have stayed longer than one night. It's only a 5 - 10 minute drive from Mucuyche Hacienda and Cenote. It felt like an authentic hacienda, comfortable (very large) room. Great dinner and breakfast, fabulous, very large pool and they even have a cenote. Interesting host who told us a lot about the local history. If we are in the area again we would definitely return.

Cons:

When you turn onto the road to Yunko (the village where the hacienda is located) there is a sign letting you know that you're in the right place but in addition they really need to put a small sign at the entrance gate of the hacienda because it's not clear that the stone road to the hacienda is really the entrance.

Fantastyczne miejsce. Paywatna cenota - chyba najlepsza jaskiniowa spośród zwiedzonych na Jukatanie.

Terribile
Cons:

Abbiamo prenotato aspettandoci una struttura immersa nel verde, tranquilla e con servizi adeguati se non a un 4 (come riportato) almeno a un 3 stelle.
Purtroppo la realtà è stata completamente diversa:
La struttura si presenta in condizioni di evidente degrado e non rispecchia in alcun modo le immagini o la descrizione online; si trova in una zona isolata, lungo una strada pericolosa e dissestata, con traffico di animali al pascolo.
Raggiungerla è stato complicato e poco sicuro. Inoltre, nella zona (in tutto il tratto per arrivare e per tornare) non c’è praticamente segnale telefonico né connessione internet, il che rende difficile qualsiasi comunicazione.
Non ci siamo sentiti a nostro agio né sicuri e abbiamo deciso di andare via immediatamente.
Trovo difficile comprendere come una descrizione così distante dalla realtà possa essere pubblicata su Booking senza verifiche più accurate; la discrepanza tra quanto indicato online e le condizioni effettive della struttura è significativa e può creare seri disagi a chi prenota facendo affidamento sulle informazioni presenti sulla piattaforma.
