Hacienda Tres Ríos
Hacienda Tres Rios is a large resort within a nature reserve on the Riviera Maya, surrounded by jungle and mangroves with ten underground cenotes on the grounds. The buildings follow traditional Mexican style with spacious lobbies, dark wooden ceilings, and large stained-glass windows, while outdoor areas feature freeform pools, terraces, and stone mosaics.
The resort opened in late 2008 and was built with respect for nature and local traditions, using local materials and traditional Mexican designs. Its development reflects a focus on sustainability and protection of the natural environment.
The resort blends ancient Mayan traditions with modern hospitality, using local ingredients like cocoa and honey in spa treatments. The architecture follows a traditional Mexican estate style with handcrafted decorations and warm colors that reflect the region's identity.
The resort sits about 45 minutes from Cancun airport in a remote location, and the town of Playa del Carmen is a short drive away for additional shopping and dining options. Tours to Mayan ruins at Tulum can be arranged through the hotel's staff, and activities like snorkeling and kayaking in cenotes are available on-site.
The resort features ten underground cenotes on its grounds where guests can snorkel or kayak, exploring underwater caves and subterranean rivers. A special SenseAdventure tour allows visitors to experience nature blindfolded through their other senses, creating an unforgettable adventure.
