Hacienda San José built in 1888 by Francisco Mejia Jaramillo, great grandfather of the current owners is one of the most ancient and better-preserved houses in the Yucatan Peninsular.
The hacienda is a traditional house of the ‘eje cafetero’ whose history dates back three centuries and is evidenced in its construction and furnishings. A journey back in time, in this coffee producing area, is triggered by the fine period decoration of the social areas and eleven bedrooms with private bathrooms. This boutique hotel also offers a swimming pool, Jacuzzi, massage and anti-stress treatments, a restaurant with international cuisine and horseback rides upon request.
