In collaboration with the architect Jorge Borja, Mexico City-based interior designer Paulina Moran is responsible for this modern interpretation of traditional hacienda. The restored 19th-century hacienda blends antique tiles, modern art, and vivid colors throughout the property.

The CHABLÉ YUCATÁN Resort & Spa was awarded the Prix Versailles in 2017 – an annual award presented by the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO) and the International Union of Architects

The hotel’s 38 luxurious stand-alone pool casitas, Presidential Suite, and Royal Presidential Suite area unique blend of original details from the 19th-century hacienda and modern art, furniture, and vivid colors. The stand-alone pool villas have outdoor showers with views of the lush jungle and large patio all feature modern touches incorporated with Mayan architecture – the warm woods and original 19th-century walls of the working hacienda are what make the CHABLÉ YUCATÁN a work of art.

Service is seamless, and housekeeping is excellent (two clothing items are pressed daily per guest at no extra cost) but the real star here is the wellness program that the property is so well known for. There are complimentary fitness classes and various activities(biking, yoga, Bootcamp, Pilates, meditation, wellness golf) offered each day but, The Destination Spa at Chablé is the hotel’s ‘crown jewel’. This innovative Spa is the first to be built around a ‘cenote’ – natural cave formations, which is considered to be sacred by the Mayans. The Spa consists of 12 modern treatment rooms that spread across an ancient cenote and a steam room, a sauna, a salt cabin, and a floatarium. In addition, the facility offers guests warm and cold whirlpools, a water circuit with varying types of shower pressures, a relaxation area, and a pool. In addition to the spa treatments, three sweat lodges are used for temazcal ceremonies carried by visiting shamans.
