Top Santa Elena Hotel Reviews
The Lodge At Uxmal
10/10 Excellent
"The staff was very helpful and courteous, five stars. The rooms were clean, the breakfast and dinner (a little on the pricey side) were ok. The location is excellent, less than a five minute walk to the Uxmal ruins. Overall, we had a very nice stay."
Hotel Mundo Maya Nuevo Uxmal
8/10 Good
"Do NOT follow Google Maps directions to this hotel if you are driving on Highway #261. Coming from Merida/Muna direction, you will find the new road/driveway to the hotel on the right, just before the Uxmal site/Hotel Hacienda Uxmal Plantation. There is a new sign noting "Hotel" This new hotel is fantastic! It starts with the drive in, through the jungle, on the new road/bike path. Watch for animals on the road. We saw many deer, iguanas and a coati. We were greeted at the front door and ushered in to check-in which was quick and pleasant The hotel is beautifully appointed. Our room (jr suite) was huge with two full bathrooms, comfortable king bed, kitchenette and large balcony. Air conditioner was quiet and worked well. Plenty of bottled water provided. Lots of hot water and good water pressure. The pool area is lovely and will be incredible once all the trees etc reach maturity. Drinks and dining were adequate. It was the low season and though we did not experience any shortage, it seemed the food may have been reheated rather than prepared fresh. We brought our own food for breakfasts All staff were very friendly and engaging. Many staff carry tablets with translating apps to overcome any language barriers. We would recommend this hotel to those with their own transportation. The hotel provides free shuttle to/from the Calkini Maya train station and the Uxmal archaeological site. We did not see a single taxi at the hotel during our 3 night stay. Wld stay again"
Uxmal Resort Maya
10/10 Excellent
"The uxmal ruins were way better than the Chichén Itzå. The staff were very good. The best part was seeing the ruins from our window. We had room 321 and got to see the sunrise over the ruins. Absolutely beautiful!!! Would come again!"
The Pickled Onion Hotel and Restaurant Uxmal
10/10 Excellent
"Great breakfast to start the day. Jose is a great server and made the best limon margaritas we had on the trip. Restaurant menu was excellent balance of food we knew and with a Mayan twist. Owner Amy Jo was welcoming and on site to offer suggestions and support for the area. Thank you"
Hacienda Maria Elena YucatĂĄn
10/10 Excellent
"Beautiful property, grounds are kept beautifully. Dinner was fresh and delicious. Breakfast was only good but no complaints for the price. The room was spotless and had two beautiful comfortable robes and toiletries. We would absolutely stay again and highly recommend for a lovely hacienda experience. "
Hacienda Uxmal Plantation & Museum
10/10 Excellent
"Clean room, friendly start and really close to the Uxmal Maya ruins. The only inconvenience is the restaurant is located at the sister property."
Charming cottage in wonderful Ticul with WiFi, AC
10/10 Excellent
"LA PERLA DEL SUR DE TICUL: An Absolute Gem in the Heart of YucatĂĄn!From the moment we booked, the experience was exceptional. The property manager sent a warm, personalized confirmation message, responded promptly when we verified our reservation a few days before arrival, and had check-in instructions ready right when we needed them. Rubi and Flor Maria are outstanding hosts â attentive, detail-oriented, and clearly take great pride in this property.The space itself is spotless and thoughtfully furnished â comfortable without being overdone. Both bedrooms have A/C and satellite TV, and the beds are genuinely comfortable, which makes all the difference after a day of exploring. The kitchen is well-stocked with everything you need â plates, glassware, and cooking utensils â and there's a potable water dispenser on hand, which is always appreciated in this part of MĂ©xico.The highlight of the property has to be the outdoor soaking tub with jacuzzi jets â easily accommodating four to six adults. After a long day visiting ruins or cenotes, it is absolutely wonderful. Practical amenities like a washer and dryer, iron and ironing board, and a hair dryer round out everything you could need for a comfortable, extended stay.The neighborhood is very safe and secure, and the off-street parking gave us great peace of mind. The location in Ticul is ideal for travelers looking to explore the region â you're well-positioned to visit nearby Mayan ruins,"
HOTEL SAAKLUUM RUTA PUUC
8/10 Good
"We found the location to be loud at night with the traffic noise. The grounds were nice though. Pool area has a need for upkeep, painting, etc.."
