We asked 3 times to have the safe in our room made operational, but that never happened. The blind was broken and wasn’t fixed. They charge oldie drinking water. They are also quite uncomfortable with LGBT couples. Lovely as the pool is, I wouldn’t recommend this to any of my friends.

We loved the setting, the birds all around, the history of the hacienda, and the kind and friendly staff. It was a perfect night there, and we wished we'd had more.

Great getaway

Awesome service and all of the staff are fantastic. Rooms are a little dated. No hot water for the bath and could only fill with the shower.

Upgrades are great!

We were upgraded to the Hacienda Uxmal which was very nice. The grounds are beautiful and very tranquil. The fan in the room was noisy but otherwise a great stay. The outdoor dining room is lovely and the staff were wonderful.

Disliked: Room comfort

Confortable but very noisy with the road

The room was large and fairly confortable. The bathroom was small and not equiped: no room for your things, no hook to hang towels. La casa del Mago was not originally built as a hotel, but to lodge archeological staff. It is located directly on the main road, in a curb and trucks make lots of noise late in the night and early morning. It is adjacent to the hacienda (large and luxury hotel). Though you have acces to the beautiful swimming pool. The restaurant staff was particularly friendly.

Es un lugar hermoso, tranquilo y el servicio es muy amable. Al llegar en medio de una tormenta y un apagon de electricidad nos enviaron a un hotel cercano con planta electrica que estaba muy bonito y nos respetaron las reservaciones. Muchas gracias por una estancia muy placentera. Esperamos regresar pronto!

Es mi segunda vez aqui, me encanta el lugar, tranquilo, el personal muy atento y Juan excelente servicio, siempre pendiente y rapido, muy variadas las opciones de desayuno.. Lo que no nos agrado fue que no tuvieran mas opciones de comida y cena en el restaurante, ni tienen opciones de snack en el bar. Tambien ibanmos a realizar el tour en caballos y no estaba disponible.Aun asi el tour es muy bonito y relajante.

séjour de charme

Hôtel superbe, nous avons été upgradé dans l'hacienda. Beaucoup de charme, la piscine est charmante et le personnel adorable. Seul bémol : le restaurant de l'hôtel est fermé et on vous indique un établissement loin et cher. Le petit-déjeuner est copieux et servi au bord de la piscine.
