Just across the street from the Uxmal Pyramids, and a 40 minutes' drive from Merida. This historic resort offers an outdoor pool and a working plantation filled with fruit trees and jogging trails.

At the Uxmal archeological site. Big hotel. Our room (suite) was huge and comfortable. The pool was very pleasant. The restaurant of their sister property was just a few minutes walk.
Amid the Yucatan jungle, Uxmal Resort Maya offers an outdoor swimming pool, wading pool and free Wi-Fi connection throughout the property.

Location is perfect for visiting Uxmal and the Puuc route, it is a very short distance driving.
Staff in the restaurant is very friendly.
Pool area with the parasols and beds is very nice.
Set a 2-minute walk from the traditional village of Santa Elena, The Pickled Onion Eco-Boutique B&B features charming thatched bungalows, an outdoor pool and a restaurant.

Nice place to stay. This arias is full with maya ruins and one day is not enough to visit them, the hotel is right place to take a rest and eat typical mexican dishes!
Located a 5-minute drive from Santa Elena town, Eco-Hotel Nueva Altia offers lush tropical gardens, an outdoor pool and palapa dining room.

My family and I enjoyed our stay a lot. Waking up with the sounds of birds, jumping in the swimming pool and do yoga before a well done breakfast. And the service was top level.
Posada El Jardín is an eco-friendly property that offers free Wi-Fi in public areas, sun terraces by the outdoor pool, and a palapa that serves coffee for a fee.

We loved our stay at El Jardin. The place is beautiful, the staff are great and helpful. We especially appreciated the swimming pool in the hot May weather. The accommodation was great, with a bedroom and living room. We recommend this establishment 100%.
Spent about 3 hours at Uxmal site. Lots of large sites to see and you can wander at your own pace. It was my favorite of the sites we visited on the trip. Tickets and entry could be clearer and signage at sites in Mexico is always lacking, but the quality of the ruins and architecture is fantastic. The scale, intimacy of the visit, and amount of ruins is superb.

To really get to experience Mayan culture, the near by towns and cenotes and more archeological sites I would recommend a week in Uxmal .
I loved every minute we were there .
I would also recommend having a much spending money as possible, not because things are expensive it is that there is so much to do and it will cost money .
Horse riding , vintage 4WD hire , the prices for the sites and tours has risen due to the pandemic .
Also supporting local artists .

The site is wonderful and the hotel was surrounded by orchards birds flowers amazing palms. A couple of small interesting local museums with animals local Mayan customs and chocolate cultivation. The Lodge restaurant which also belonged to the hacienda estate was a short walk and of a high standard.

We traveled by car because my older sister has specific food needs due to ALS. A blender, two boxes of food and a cooler were graciously hauled to and from our room by the hotel staff. They could not have been more accommodating and helped to supplement her diet with fresh food from the kitchen.
It was my sister's fifth and probably final trip to the awe inspiring sites of the Yucatan. We are so grateful for the experience.

Uxmal charges US citizen 4 times regular admission.
Uxmal charges US citizen 4 times regular admission. Hotel Uxmal Maya charges 33% more for using US money or cards. Do not go if you don’t want to feel ripped off. Nothing special about hotel as at every turn you have to be guarded about being ripped off.

The bed was very firm and the hot water took a little longer than I would like but everything else was just fantastic. The food was amazing the staff tried to help us find anything we were looking for. It was a nice welcoming place to stay
The location is 10/10. It could not be more convenient for visiting Uxmal first thing in the morning before the crowds arrive and the weather gets too hot. The hotel buildings are attractive and in keeping with the jungle surroundings. We liked the rustic chalet but it might not be to everyone's taste. Weirdly empty when we stayed in late July - there cant have been more than 20 guests in the entire hotel. But this meant for a very quiet stay and we had the pool to ourselves.
Beautiful historic hacienda surrounded by gorgeous tropical garden, pools, fountains and birds. Our room was upgraded to a beautiful suite with outdoor glassed in bathroom, stained glass windows and traditional elegant furnishings. Steps from the Uxmail ruins was a plus for our three-day visit.
Wonderful breakfasts but no restaurant for dinner on site (5 minute walk away with plain food only.) Staff exceptionally friendly, helpful and efficient.
We were upgraded to The Lodge at Uxmal, which is a beautiful hotel. Our room overlooked the pool, which was the best pool of our holiday, and the room was huge! The entrance to the ruins was visible from our balcony, so a quick walk in the morning! Breakfast was buffet and open at 7 so we were easily at the ticket office by 8 and enjoyed the ruins more or less to ourselves.
In a fantastic position just across from the entrance to Uxmal site.
Lovely room and area to sit outside.
We arrived in a downpour which lasted several hours so were not able to use the lovely pools.
Good breakfast provided.
The onsite restaurant/bar was overpriced , that would be my only criticism.
We were upgraded to a very nice room at The Lodge hotel which is next to the pyramids and very pleased with the facilities and services.
The room was very comfortable with a large bathroom tub, good air conditioning, fans and beautiful carved wooden door, displaying a well sculpted Mayan design.
We ended up being upgraded to the sister hotel, the Lodge, like many other reviewers, and it was, of course, excellent. Our room was beautiful, the pool was a treat, and the proximity to the Uxmal Archaeological Site was super. We enjoyed our two nights there!
Hotel close to the Mayan site of Uxmal, but far from any city activity: the closest town (15 km) is Santa Helena. Difficult to eat somewhere in the evening except at the hotel.
welcoming and friendly staff.
free parking on site.
Beautiful hotel with really friendly and helpful staff and a tasty/local breakfast. It's really difficult to beat the location because you are within walking distance of Uxmal and next door to the Choco Museum.
+Beautifully located in the middle of the jungle, 3min drive (or 1.5km walk) to Uxmal
+ Room was big, clean and had a great view
+ Breakfast was very good
+ Staff was extremely nice and helpful
that location is ideal for visiting the ruins. You can walk to them. And the Palapa bar and restaurant is very relaxing and so is the pool. The grounds are beautiful. Staff was very helpful.
