Hacienda Temozon

Located on the Yucatan Peninsula, only 35 minutes from Merida International Airport and 45 minutes from the City itself.  In the past XIX century, the Hacienda produced henequen fiber, and was one of the  most prosperous Haciendas in the region. The property boasts three buildings; the Restaurant and the Terrace Bar is located in the main  building. Reception and the Pesidential Suite, which used to be the bedroom of the owner of the Hacienda, are located there as well. The second building houses the rooms that served as the carpenter´s workshop and the pharmacy, this is where selected employees of the Hacienda lived.  Overlooking the pool, there is an area that used to be the Machine room,  this is where the birth of the  henequen production process took place.  At present it is used as a meeting room and it adjoins a unique Spa.  You are able to receive individual Spa treatments there but due to the preservation of the cavern, our specially fitted out sinkhole (cenote),  you will be amazed when you see this space. Here, exists an everlasting ancestral magic that many say they can feel. This is where you can encounter a special relationship with balsamic nature.    

Choosing Hacienda Temozon for your stay implies choosing an out of the ordinary experience as, apart from being in a historical building, you will find sinkholes (cenotes), caves, colonial cities and archaeological sites in the surrounding areas.  Experience staying in one of the twenty eight rooms with a terrace, nine of them with small private pools or stay in the Presidential suite or “cuarto del patrón” (master´s room) which has a private garden, a pool and spectacular long views of the gardens of the Hacienda.
