Item Description

Steeped in Mayan culture and bordered by lush tropical forests, spend 3 nights in a Superior room at The Hacienda Santa Rosa in Yucatán, Mexico, one of the world’s most unique and celebrated addresses.  Formerly an important property of the nobility, the mid-19th century building has become a luxurious residence.

Take in sweeping views of the botanical garden, or relax in the privacy of your suite's own garden. Enjoy dinner on the terrace of the main house, overlooking the open sky filled with thousands of stars.  Explore the area’s ceremonial architecture, which dates back some 3000 years, swim in a cenote, take a stroll in a colonial town, explore sacred subterranean caves, or taste the original savory yucatecan cuisine. Savor the land of legend, sun and recreation!

Included are items hand-made by artisans of the Haciendas community, part of a project to reduce poverty and support local women and communities.  These excellent examples of age-old tradition and high craftsmanship include: a beach bag, Men's Panama hat and women's hat, a Sisal and Bull horn Clutch and a filigree frog pin.
