Hacienda Temozon on the Yucatan Peninsula is one of the best examples of the prosperity generated by sisal production in the 19th century in this region. Originally covering an area over 6600 hectares, it went into decline after the First World War, and was finally acquired and restored in 1996 turning the hacienda's buildings and 37 hectares of gardens into this intimate luxury colonial hacienda-styled hotel. A stay here let's you experience a piece of history whilst enjoying the nearby natural and cultural surroundings including sinkholes (cenotes), caves, colonial cities and archaeological sites. Nearby to Merida and its international aiport, the hotel boasts three buildings. The first building has the reception, restaurant and terrace bar, as well as the Pesidential Suite, which used to be the bedroom of the owner of the hacienda. The rooms and suites have a 19th century style decor and are located in the original building that has been completely restored and adapted to meet today's luxury hotel needs. All the 28 rooms have a private terrace each.
