The Lodge offered us a beautiful big room with a large bathroom.

The outside door had a fantastic "Maya" carving in the shape of a warrior. All the wooden furniture was of high quality.

The room (first floor) was almost completely round. It was located in a small building with 3 rooms on the first floor and 3 on the second floor.

There was a big jacuzzi (for 2 at least) which worked perfectly. Fragant soap, shampoo and face cream.

The bed was good too.

Warning:Do not drink the bottled water! It will cost you 3/4 dollars!

Check to see if there are no insects in your bed! The people on the 2nd floor had netting over the bed since insects kept dropping from the (open) thatched roof. Another person discovered a scorpio in her bed... Remember, you are in the jungle.

The staff was very courteous and smiled all the time.

The dinner was quite good. So was breakfast.

All in all, a very, very good stay.

PS Did I say the Lodge is across the Maya Temples?

A stone throw away from the magical site of Uxmal, this is definitely the place to stay. The rooms are spacious clean and very well designed. The staff is friendly and corteous. The food is well prepared. A swim in the pool after exploring the site is great. Would definitely suggest top floor rooms. Use the hotel as a base to explore other lesser know sites nearby such as Sayil, Kabah and labna. Don´t miss the fruit market at Oxcutzcab

I was lucky enough to spend one night at the Lodge at Uxmal on my way to Merida. I hadn't seen the archaeological site since the 70's and decided it was time. My guide to the ruins was exceptional and in my opinion Uxmal is even more astounding than Chichen Itza. The pyramid of the Magician is second to none. My room at the lodge was large and comfortable and I felt I had stepped back in time waking up to the sounds of the numerous birds that make their home in the jungle around the site. A young Mayan woman welcomed me with a hand squeezed orange water and explained a few words in Maya and acquainted me with the Lodge. There is a wide porch outside the rooms with rocking chairs made from local hardwood. I had two delicious meals there and was sad to have to leave after just 24 hours. I plan to return again soon for a longer stay.

Like the previous reviewers we were allegedly upgraded, but in truth we were a small tour party of 6 and the Hacienda had a number of large bus parties staying over for a couple of nights and required the rooms. The room was basic but large with an very nice bathroom. The Beds in the rooms have mosquito nets. It was kept spotlessly clean. We were fortunate to be given an upper room (1st floor) in block 1 and the balcony afforded a stunning view over the swimming pool to the main pyramid in the park. It was spectacular at sunset sitting on the rocking chairs on the balcony taking in the view. We were also fortunate to be upgraded to the "A La Carte" menu during our stay and the food was first class. The wine was a little expensive, roughly £20 for a Spanish Rioja or a Californian White Zindfandel, but was worth paying the extra because the Mexican house wine was not the greatest. On the menu was a sweet allegedly ordered by the Queen, when she and Prince Philip stayed at Uxmal in 1974. A Cheese Cake covered in local honey and served with an orange sorbet. Recommended it was absolutely delicious. There was a lot of bugs about, but that doesn't distract from the sheer beauty and tranquility of Uxmal, and we were never bitten. Well worth a visit.
