The hotel sits on the strip of sand between the sea and the lagoon — and the sea is only one of the reasons to be here. These are the rest, starting at home.
Start at home: rooms made for real rest, and a beach of soft white sand where the sunrise arrives before you leave the bed. The pools and the rooftops are the kind you remember, and the Tenedor restaurant serves signature international cooking facing the sea.
Wander its streets among craft stalls, local boutiques and the folklore of a pueblo mágico that is alive all year round. Colour, and the Maya cooking of always — cochinita pibil, panuchos, sopa de lima: no luxury, and never any less charming for it.
The only walled Maya city facing the sea. Still an active port in 1518: the Spanish saw it from their ships and compared it to Seville.
Where the fresh water of the lagoon meets the salt water of the Caribbean: a strip of sand with the sea on one side and the mangrove on the other, and the hotel right in the middle. Ride it by bicycle, without a single hill, or drive it as far as the Sian Ka’an entrance.
In Maya, “where the sky is born”. A World Heritage Site since 1987, with canals the Maya dug by hand that are still open a thousand years later. Spider monkeys in the jungle along the way; and in the water you may find dolphins swimming around you, huge turtles, manatees and the island of the birds.
You wade out knee-deep for dozens of metres and the bottom vanishes: at its centre lies a deep cenote, and you can see its edge from the shore.
Caves the sea flooded eight thousand years ago, above the longest submerged cave system on earth. To the Maya they were the underworld’s door — and their only fresh water.
A Maya city inside the jungle. The longest known sacbé started here: a hundred kilometres of white limestone, dead straight, built by hand.
Akumal means “place of the turtles” in Maya, and it still is: they feed on the seagrass meadows of its bay. Guided tours take you snorkelling or diving into that underwater world. Access is regulated and has a season.
At reception we will help you arrange any of these outings: times, how to get there and what to bring.
No automatic calendar and no surprises on arrival: we reply with real availability and the total, taxes included.
