Just minutes from the vibrant city of Mérida, Hacienda Yaxnic opens its doors with a fresh, new concept: a cozy, relaxed retreat where history and nature converge. Located in the community of Yaxnic, where time moves slowly, this hacienda is a tangible revival of Yucatán’s historic legacy.
The hacienda dates back to the 19th century, during the boom of henequen production, when it played a key role in the region’s economic development. Today, its walls — restored with deep respect for their original character, including the beautiful Chapel of the Sacred Heart of Jesus — are ready to share that history with you. Even its name, Yaxnic, which means «leafy tree used for construction» in Maya, evokes a deep connection to the local landscape.
The Perfect Setting for a Dream Wedding in Yucatán
If you’re looking for a romantic, secluded spot full of charm to celebrate your special event, Hacienda Yaxnic is the ideal destination. Its expansive gardens and every corner of the property have been restored while preserving the essence of their finest years, offering unmatched natural and architectural backdrops for capturing your best memories.
From an intimate gathering to a grand celebration, the hacienda is the perfect complement to your wedding, quinceañera, or any special occasion. Imagine exchanging vows beneath the shade of centuries-old trees, with colonial architecture as your witness, creating a refined, understated atmosphere that will make your event a truly unforgettable experience. Hacienda Yaxnic is available for private events, ready to offer a magical, secluded setting.
Cenote Day Pass: An Unmatched Retreat (Ages 16+)
Behind the main house, Hacienda Yaxnic guards its most precious jewel: a hidden cenote transformed into an exclusive adults-only retreat (16+). This space is a true treasure, surrounded by lush vegetation and areas designed for total relaxation. The cenote blends organically with the surrounding jungle. The natural pool, in shades of turquoise and emerald, is bordered by limestone rock, sun decks, and shaded lounge areas with rustic palapas and comfortable loungers.
As you can see in the second photo, access is via an elegant wooden dock, perfect for sunbathing or enjoying time with your partner in a discreet, comfortable setting. It’s the perfect place to:
- Disconnect from stress: The tranquility here, paired with birdsong, will bring you to a state of deep relaxation.
- Sunbathe and enjoy music in an exclusive setting.
- Reconnect with nature and your inner peace in the cool waters of an open-air cenote.
