Elite Overview
From the editors of Elite Meetings
As an incentive or small corporate retreat destination, Hacienda Temozon, 30 minutes from Merida, Mexico, offers a chance to stay and play in a centuries-old setting. From a seventeenth-century cattle estancia (plantation), the hacienda evolved into an important nineteenth-century henequen plantation before becoming a luxury hotel in 1997.
Today, as a precious jewel in Starwood's Luxury Collection, the hacienda's 28 guest rooms and suites epitomize a gentler age via 18-foot ceilings with exposed beams and rafters, double wooden doors, iron beds, and handwoven cotton hammocks. Restorative experiences take place at the Hol Be Spa, where candlelit cenotes and Mayan-inspired treatments further immerse guests in the indigenous culture. Distinctive dining at Casa Principal guarantees memorable meals. Hacienda Temozon's staff also assists with personalized activities including: area tours, biking, horseback riding, and excursions to Uxmal, Chichén Itzá, and Merida.
