Accommodations

Committed to the conservation of the cultural heritage of Mexico, all the decorative elements of the resort's 900 suites were created by artisans from vulnerable populations and all were acquired under the criteria of fair trade and a vision of community development. Every suite has its own terrace with a handmade hammock to enjoy a fantastic view of the turquoise sea, iconic inlets, underground caves, and the Mayan rainforest's crystal-clear rivers.

Hotel Xcaret México is the first property in the Americas to achieve the EarthCheck Certification in Construction, Planning, and Design Standards. Impeccable construction blends with the surrounding environment, creating a harmony of incomparable beauty. It is the perfect balance between aesthetics and ethics.

In addition to its commitment to preserve nature, Hotel Xcaret México pays tribute to the country with buildings, or Casas, that represent important symbols of the Mayan culture: Viento (wind), Agua (water), Espiral (spiral), Tierra (earth), and Fuego (fire), which are suited for all kinds of accommodations, from families with young kids or teens to adults-only or groups.
